You mean exceedingly rare apps that use it? Yeah.

And they weigh in hundreds of megabytes, right, because they come with all the dependencies starting with glibc.

Yeah, that will totally work and has been a smashing success. Except it never has.

Drawio, Session, and SimpleX are three that use AppImage, just off the top of my head.

Good, because my system doesn't have glibc, by choice.

It's already working.

My home connection is 2-gigabit symmetrical and the internal NVMe in my laptop is 4TB. So cry more poorfag.

I'll just leave this here, please argue with it:

The lack of deduplication, or more like avoiding duplication, of what are basically files in some of these implementations is a problem.

But it's not a problem for me. It's also not a problem for most people. And it's not at all a problem next to the dumpster fire of closed source OS ; so ultimately there is no real problem.

Yet, all of that is moot, because someone already solved the problem. But I'll wait until they publish their work to talk about it.

Yeah, but you can't properly remove whatever you installed.
