Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

If you are on debian you can use this trick to pack any package in deb repository as appimage with its deps!
The pkg2appimage script exists to do these conversions with many examples https://github.com/AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage/tree/master/recipes
-
SimpleScreenRecorder, a screen recorder for Linux (X11) is now available as an (Unofficial) AppImage
NOTE: I've built it using the recipe available at https://github.com/AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage, added libunionpreload from https://github.com/project-portable/libunionpreload and some additional paths to LD_LIBRARy_PATH into the AppRun, just tested on Debian and Arch Linux... and works great!

"AM" and AppMan - that's why they don't include support for AppImageHub and similar sites
Beyond all, my work is heavily focused on compiling AppImage from existing .deb packages through the use of pkg2appimage and appimagetool, as unofficial AppImage packages not present on AppImageHub are provided, but taken from fairly reliable sources ( Debian repositories, or in some cases a PPAs for Ubuntu). The sources are available via the -a or -w options of my scripts.
-
What's the deal with "snap vs flatpack" rivalry I seem to see around the internet?
Does anyone actually do that? The official documentation says not to do that (see here). Also, the excludelist mentions a couple of problems that happen when certain libraries are bundled in an AppImage.
-
Is it possible to have a Multi-Linux distro that has the main features of the rest?
It sounds like there might also be at least some support for portable Linux formats on Mac: snap appears to allow installing on mac via brew, but it sounds like appimages and flatpaks cannot run on mac. that said, i haven't used snaps on mac nor have I ever heard of anyone who does so... so no clue if they work well there.

For those interested in compiling an AppImage for Chromium...
PS: yes, I know that better sources for this are already available, for example the Slackware repository and woolyss, but actually the more recent version, the 97, for old i386 machines is provided by Debian (ArchLinux32 has the v90, and other versions are quite buggy for this architecture, see this issue). Unluckily there is not a 32 bit version of pkg2appimage, if we had one or someone can fork better the main script, we can still have more appimages for old architectures, being many of my scripts for x86_64 wrote to support pkg2appimage (as you have already seen in my previous post).

Issue in creating an AppImage for GIMP
If I have time enough, I wanna try to create a script that automatizes all the processes, also for you developers, but my knowledge is limited to the download of packages from Debian and derivatives or from Arch Linux to create these structures, I'm not much good in compiling these programs by myself into a chroot, I'm just an enthusiast.
-
Why doesn't everyone use appimages instead of .deb, .rpm or other native binary system?
Depends on who makes them, but generally everything besides this list

Any Appimages for linux?
Brave doesn't officially provide any AppImages. There is a issue on GitHub tracking this, but it's definitely not their top priority right now. You can use pkg2appimage to produce an AppImage of Brave or use existing ones available on this GitHub repository. Keep in mind that these are unofficial sources that I don't recommend to use, but if you really want to, at your own risk.

Flatpak, my friend.

hi, i installed java through the terminal, but it isnt an option in the "open with other application" menu, even when looking through "view all applications", please help.
maybe you need an IDE or something?
-
Running GUI apps within Docker containers
Because Flatpak imposes some design choices that are... less than optimal for porting existing applications, and if you ask them to change maintainers will insist this is the way to go.
They have told users that if they want, for instance, Jetbrains IDEs to work, they should simply get a Job at Jetbrains and convince them to rewrite their entire IDE to support the flatpak model.[1]
This is the reason I avoid distros with Flathub enabled by default. Half the software on there is broken in some pretty subtantial way, and nobody at Flatpak or Flathub cares. They really need to realize they're not Apple, they simply can't tell everyone to do things their way and hope to build a working and reliable ecosystem.
