Probono, creator of AppImage, in an attempt to get AppImage support, is banned from the OBS Studio organization on GitHub after downright rude comments and accuses them of supporting Flatpak because of the bounty offered by RH. "In any event, please do not bother our project anymore"

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/linux

    Monorepo with website and API (by flathub-infra)

  • appimage-builder

    GNU/Linux packaging solution using the AppImage format

  • A tool that is capable of bundling everthing (including glibc, libstdc++. and gcc 9 runtime libraries) like https://github.com/AppImageCrafters/appimage-builder or go-appimage appimagetool -s deploy may be better suited for the meantime

  • flathub

    Issue tracker and new submissions

  • Given that eveything in flathub is open source (well, the packaging and the store are open source, see: https://github.com/flathub/flathub)

  • Sprachpanscher

    Discontinued Sammlung von Vorschlägen für den Preis “Sprachpanscher des Jahres”. Jeder kann mitmachen!

  • But this aside - in the german language it is nowadays typical to include both genders if you address them. Its hard to get for english speakers but we have a variant for teacher in male and female variant. And to not forget half of the population we use both now (because we are good people right?). Probono keeps an repository with political people who did this with references and whatnot because he doesn't like to be political correct: https://github.com/Sprachpanscher/Sprachpanscher . For me this is a red line

  • rustdesk

    An open-source remote desktop, and alternative to TeamViewer.

  • winepak

    Flatpak-ing Microsoft Windows applications with Wine

  • The reason being that there is literally no point to duplicating flathub just to have your own repo, why waste computing resources. If you want to host a special build of apps that aren't on flathub, then yeah, people are hosting their own remotes. See this one, this one and this one.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • xclicker

    XClicker - Fast gui autoclicker for x11 linux desktops

  • Double-click run apps are fantastic for one time use apps (i.e. I needed an autoclicker, this got me set up in less than 30 seconds and I never left my browser)

  • snapstore

    Obsolete super minimalist example "store" to serve snap packages

  • If you're referring to the old HOWTO article for hosting your own snap store server, the software it used to do that stopped working several years ago.
