SteamDeck-Clover-dualboot VS AppImageLauncher

You can, of course. For ease of use though, you I also suggest you configure a boot loader: https://github.com/ryanrudolfoba/SteamDeck-Clover-dualboot

I use Clover for dual-boot (SteamOS 3.5 and Windows 10) - https://github.com/ryanrudolfoba/SteamDeck-Clover-dualboot (release 15.10.2023) And I noticed that SteamOS loads much slower due to Clover - ~30 seconds to even over one minute. Windows 10 starts immediately. If I boot SteamOS directly from UEFI (Vol - + power button), the system starts almost immediately.

You may also find useful this project. It's a preconfigured Clover that can automatically reinstall itself after system upgrades. It automatically detects different OS on different drives and some OS are already preconfigured with beautiful icons. Works flawlessly for me, tested with Ventoy USB drive with multiple images and with Tails (Deck is an amazing device for anonymous Internet access!) on SDCard. The only things I adjusted were menu timeout and theme. I'm not sure if it's better or worse compared to refind.

I use SteamDeck-Clover-dualboot to manage a dual boot. Updates to either SteamOS or Windows will often mess with the boot priority, so installing this script on the SteamOS side tends to help. When one OS “takes over,” manually booting into SteamOS fixes it right up.

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.

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).

This reminds me of a prettier version of AppImageLauncher. Is there also an "Uninstall" option in the right-click menu of the app launcher?

I'm using AppImageLauncher on Fedora.

"... 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!
