https://orca.dev I think it's probably the easiest switch (Conductor imports).

Am I biased? Perhaps!

I switched from conductor to orca because conductor didn’t support mobile app working with local instances and didn’t have a good cli/mcp at the time.

Very happy I switched. I’m extremely productive on mobile. It defiiitely feels power usery but i am one so it works great.

My only gripe is sometimes it loses connections to workspaces in a way that is hard to recover BUT the meta conductor living on top can resolve it for me. Kudos for having it.

If you make a GH issues for your connection problem we can also probably get to the bottom of it!

appImage is not a great packaging format for Linux. Any chance you could ship a flatpak instead? You'd likely need to host your own flatpak remote, but it's not rocket surgery.

Thank you for your consideration and for your work.

It is far, far easier to convert an AppImage into a Flatpak (or any other packaging form) than vice versa.

If a dev is only going to choose one, I'd much rather they ship an AppImage.
