My First Hacktoberfest PR
I finished my first Hacktoberfest PR on Golly Bot. This is a Discord bot that is written using Go. The issue was adding a feature to a Discord bot that sent a message every time a user leaves a channel. I had learned the syntax for Go very briefly through working on another repo that used Go, but I was not familiar with how to make a Discord bot.

Why doesn't appimage have this?
Integrate zap with that repo and make it official. It will automatically download the appimages inside a directory 'Appimage'. You can move them anywhere else ONLY if it has a directory named 'Appimage'. In this case it is moved to an external usb.

Install snap vs deb (ppa) for Ubuntu 22.04?
Personally, on a debian based distribution I would either use the AppImage (you could even use something like zap to manage its version). Or, the solution I would and have personally used is to compile it from source. I am a developer, so I am biased, but the instructions are very simple and clear so it should be pretty easy to do.

appimage-builder 1.0.0 was released, a tool for packing applications along with all of its dependencies using the system package manager to obtain binaries and resolve dependencies.
That said, there is Zap.

Bread, It's History & Minor Patch v0.7.2
Tho bread is github focused which is a big drawback as many software aren't on github, i discovered this program Zap Which was a appimage package manager like AM or bread but it's far much better than mine.

Interesting Benchmarks of Flatpak vs. Snap vs. AppImage
If you can download and install software from the web (which you also can do with debs and rpms btw), you can create a package manager to automate that from the terminal. You either trust a project or you don't, and if your don't the package format makes no difference.

It's time to fork some good projects
NOTE: I don't know when and if to add new AppImages from the main catalog, also because a part of them is mostly broken and out of control. The AppImage packages compiled and managed by "AM"/AppMan are new AppImages that use scripts that also allow constant updating and recompilation from scratch, as if they were installed from AUR, using more reliable sources (official repositories for Debian and derivatives) . If you are interested more to the applications made available officially from the official AppImage.GitHub.io catalog, I suggest you to use Zap, Bread or the aforementioned Appimagedl. All these amazing utilities can be quickly installed via "AM" or AppMan.
- AppImage and centralized repositories: my point of view
What are some alternatives?
word-cloud-generator - D3 Word Cloud Generator
AppImageUpdate - AppImageUpdate lets you update AppImages in a decentral way using information embedded in the AppImage itself.
