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).

Why do a lot of people advocate for appimages while hating the idea of downloading random applications off the internet?
It's called AppImage Pool available at GitHub and in the Flathub. It also had a video done on it by TechHut.

"AM" and AppMan - that's why they don't include support for AppImageHub and similar sites
The preferred sources for downloading packages in AppImage format via "AM" / AppMan are GitHub and Sourceforge, however, writing installation scripts that are compatible with one or more programs is a difficult task. Just think that many developers add multiple versions of the same product in the same tag (I have to include also commands to find the exact name of the latest version to avoid the download of other packages), or include more complex links that require an equally complex function to obtain the latest version of a program, and this slows down the loading of these programs on the "AM" repository I manage. I have therefore included excellent AppImage package managers such as "Bread" and "Zap" among the downloadable programs, but also "AppimagePool" and "bauh" are available among the graphics applications (not counting a "Pacstall" AppImage versionI made). These tools should compensate the lack of support for certain sources that I have not included in the "AM" repository.

I downloaded the appimage (seemed appropriate). Then marked it as executable.

I'm sick of reading that among the disadvantages of AppImage is the lack of updates and a centralized repository!
I have been working on two CLI tools to install AppImage packages system wide and locall (they are AM and AppMan respectively). I've also written a website that acts as a catalog and a better source for downloading them all for real, https://portable-linux-apps.github.io !

Thank you for the review of "AM"
3:57, often appear the message "find: './containerd': Permission denied", this is because AM expects you install everything in /opt, to use a version that can work in any container or custom $HOME you want, use the portable version of AM, i.e. "AppMan", at https://github.com/ivan-hc/AppMan
-
After two years of development on "AM", AppMan and many Appimage packages... I'm seriously considering giving it all up
I started writing AM/AppMan two years ago, it was just a custom script to install and always keep any Appimage package I needed updated to the latest version. Then become something much bigger.
