Civ6 in a Windows VM?
Have you tried using: Flatpak (use flatseal for other library locations), Conty (use HOME_DIR in case you want to separate it from host's .steam folder), or Distrobox (use Bazzite-Arch image for quick setup)

Wine 8.10 Released
nah, there is conty to save the day of not dealing with i386

Gaming in Slackware?
Or go the https://github.com/Kron4ek/Conty way

Portable Arch Linux packed into a single executable
These ideas I'm toying with also is what made me request the non-image option with Conty here (https://github.com/Kron4ek/Conty/issues/77) where u/Kron4ek speedily patched an option to do so (ty!). Though I'm still pondering what I'm trying to do and if it would make sense with Conty.

Current state of linux application sandboxing. Is it even as secure as Android ?
I'd imagine the sandbox options are bubblewrap presets, though -- you'd probably want to look around conty-start.sh for more details or ask in the GitHub Discussion.

The first tip to give to any new Linux user should be "do NOT search for, download, and install software on the Web!"
Have you tried Conty? The best way I could describe it is the combination of distrobox and AppImage. You basically build a single binary (or use the pre-built one the dev made) containing a minimal Arch install and any other packages you listed in the create-arch-bootstrap.sh file.

Thinking of purchasing a 4080 laptop and replacing W11 with KDE plasma
Do note that with Nobara having Fedora base, some stuff might not have a Flatpak/AppImage or RPM for you to install easily unlike on Debian/Ubuntu-based (tho PikaOS is Nobara re-implemented under Ubuntu-base, but I haven't tested it). Distrobox and Conty may help you with that, but if you were fine with Steam Deck's limitation, you should be alright under Fedora-based distro.

Improved Wine gaming with exeCute
It's why I usually just run Bottles in Conty. nix-unstable also have the latest Bottles builds, though I haven't tested those yet. I don't think the default permissions is a big problem though, just something to note if you store your games outside of areas it has permissions for by default.

Pacman Virtual Environment v0.1
Conty https://github.com/Kron4ek/Conty looks interesting, but also relies on an image, here squashfs. Mentioned in this comment along with some more options: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/xq09nf/comment/iqdigoe/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

- New to fedora, any advices?
- Flatpak Is Not the Future

What is the proper way to install?
Every file that you want to execute has to be in your environment PATH. I would also advise to put symlinks and personal executables in ~/.local/bin and put that to your path. Since your user has ownership over that directory, you won't have any probs with permissions that may or may not occur at all. Since we're talking about AppImage files, you might also want to take a look at AppImageLauncher which does a pretty good job at creating entries for your Desktop Menu for the AppImage files that you install to your system.

What’s the best way to install App Man, direct or via distrobox?
I think it's safe to install it directly as it stores everything in a single directory. For AppImages there is also AppImagePool + AppImageLauncher (can be installed rootless, useful for better integration of appimages).
- Newer Linux Administrator, have a question regarding Debian builds like Ubuntu and installer.appimage files.
- AppImage won't ask anymore to Integrate after Running only once
- AppImageLauncher no longer working on Fedora 38
-
Working on an app to "install" and manage AppImages
This reminds me of a prettier version of AppImageLauncher. Is there also an "Uninstall" option in the right-click menu of the app launcher?
-
Can I trust Flatpak apps if they are not managed by the app developer?
I'm using AppImageLauncher on Fedora.

Standard Notes users - how are you creating shortcut to SN inDock?
"... I recall that this was related to an issue with most Electron apps, wherein the AppImage cannot be integrated with the desktop or the favourites bar. So far we've found that the AppImageLauncher (https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher) helps with getting around this!
