AppImages sounds good on paper, but when you download one, get library errors and there's nothing you can do about it, you start thinking that Flatpak with its runtimes was not so bad idea after all.
The question is which method is more prone to issues. Perhaps a QA process of sorts could be builtin to the "app store" to at least be able to boot the app without errors? Also I am not saying flatpaks or apt should go away. Just saying that it would be nice to have a realiable way to download a package and run it, no hassle.
