Gregory's Server@davidrevoy thanks for the detailed article, it's a pleasure to read and while nothing you wrote is entirely new to me, you made it in a consistent text. I've been using Fedora for many years now. Is there a specific reason why you recommend AppImage for several programs and not Flatpak? I have used both in the past but AppImage requires more manual work.
@steko Thanks!
Oh yes, the manual work for Appimage is difficult on user side.
Unfortunately, projects like Krita became so complex with how they need specific libraries patched and not using the stock Qt of the system. The flatpak/snap or distro packages can't follow anymore project like that (unless devs will maintain the release and beta tester will beta-test them).
I advice what's solid and beta-tested. It's a case per case choice.
