Flatpak Is Not the Future
Snap and flatpak run a daemon to integrate into your system. Appimage has an optional daemon to give you the same integration https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage
Handles making it executable, automatic upgrades, no need to move it to your $PATH, and adds the application to your app list.
Only other thing you might want to do is symlink a friendly name for cli

Can I still use Flatpaks with musl-version of Void?
It's possible to make appimages that bundle a libc, although most don't. The go-appimage project contains a static build tool that will bundle the linker and wrap executable invocation in that. The intention seems to be providing support on older systems for programs built with a glibc that is too new, but I'm using it to ship a musl binary that can run on glibc systems.

FOSDEM ‘23 - I was wrong about Flatpak, AppImage, and Snap
I look forward to watching the FOSDEM talk this weekend, so perhaps getting ahead of myself. But I'm curious whether you think the move in appimage toward static linking would solve some of the hairy issues you pointed out? For example: https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/issues/1193 and https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage/

Tips for avoiding bloat with Wine's multilib dependencies?
AppImage This seems like a convenient way of keeping Wine isolated from rest of the system. However, the documentation is still in research phase for this: https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/Bundling-Windows-applications https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher https://github.com/sudo-give-me-coffee/wine32-deploy

How to set an appimage as the default pdf viewer?
There's an automatic way to make .desktop entries from appimage, I use https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage/blob/master/src/appimaged/README.md

Question about .appimage
There are helper programs to help you manage them and integrate them with the system like other package formats.
- When I install a program from the Ubuntu repositories, I can press the Super key and search for it any time, and it shows up as a friendly icon. How can I add AppImage files to this database?

Red Hat donates $10,000 to OBS Studio, Flatpak to be official for Linux
their is you can use appimaged https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage
- No Flatpacks or Snaps on my system

AppImageLauncher to Integrate AppImages (including Games/Emulators) in Your Linux Distro Seamlessly!
Would be great if most distros (including Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.) would include AppImageLauncher or appimaged by default. Would make it much simpler for most people.

After 30 Years, Linux Finally Hits 3% Market Share
I use the nonguix channel for non-free stuff https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix. It has the mainline linux kernel (instead of the free linux-libre), proprietary drivers and a bunch of other proprietary stuff.

Newbie needs some answers about making a decision about migrating to Gnu Guix Tool
Guix has these things called "channels" containing package definitions. They're actually just git repositories. nonguix was made to have nonfree stuff. It has a lot of stuff including the mainline linux kernel.
-
Other than flatpak, snap, or app image, what is your favorite stand alone package manager?
https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix you can use non free software if you need to. But the project itself is a gnu project and as such should not encourage users to use non free software.
-
Why all the NixOS hype? Did we all forget about Guix?
I think Guix approach is good, community helps with open-source packages, some third-party manages the non-free channels. And they are as easy to use
https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix
There are flatpacks, snaps, appimages, PPAs, channels... why would you except a linux distro maintainer to work for free for a billion dollar company? Testing and maintain their software

Help evaluating GUIX for an embedded system use case
My background consists of using/developing Guix, openSUSE/SUSE as well of OBS. I'm a co-maintainer at nonguix, where we provide non-free software which is not allowed at upstream Guix. We even run our own little build service, called Cuirass. This softwore is developed mostly by https://www.reddit.com/user/mothacehe/ :)

transactional supremacy
Even GNU Guix System (which is a fully libre, FSF approved distro) can be used to install non-free packages. All you have to do is add the nonguix repository.
