Moving program to /opt to make it accessible to all users? #permissions #appimage #opt

It solves the startup menu integration problem for the #AppImage.

I guess I'm a bit more of an #AppImage person, even if that has problems with themes and etc. At least it plays nice with the rest of my home filesystem and it's the easiest type of app package to carry between systems, in my eyes anyways.

But really, I'd just rather use the system package manager. It's there for a reason, and having to flip flop between two of them is kind of dumb tbh.

You can easily install LabPlot on Windows, macOS, Linux and FreeBSD 🚀

But to go back at your original question:

The solution is to make statical linking the norm.

I mean we already have that - tho in a 3D Chess version aka. #Docker, #Snap, #Flatpak and #AppImage...

And for my current project this is the way to go in order to make easy updates, revisions and fixes without breaking shit.

@realcainmosni AppImage is simple: One app = one file. Of course this comes at some cost. But have you looked at the download size of, e.g., #LibreOffice #AppImage vs. the other formats? You might actually be positively surprised.

Thought I'd try an #arm64 #vps (with #Debian). All was going fine until I realised that #neovim only release #appimage packages for #x86 #nvim due to some lack of support on #github

Not sure I want a VM without access to my fave editor!

Giving the seemingly very useful utility with slightly confusing name a try; Gear Lever.

I like Flatpaks and prefer them wherever the option exists, but a few apps sadly only release as AppImages (and/or more traditional methods). For those, Gear Lever seems to be a very nice (Flatpak!) utility that helps AppImages behave nicely as a more integrated part of your system.

I'm always impressed with what people are able to cook up.

#Flatpak #AppImage #Fedora #GNOME #Linux

@herrbischoff Doesn't look like the official neovim is newer than that. Also they're stating #Flatpak support (see https://github.com/neovim/neovim/wiki/Installing-Neovim#flatpak). I'd choose that over a #appimage

@thindil Oh there *is* binary compatibility for sure. The #Linux kernel typically doesn't break its userspace-facing #ABI. #Glibc and #GCC's libstdc++ use symbol versioning to provide backwards compatibility.

The issue starts with all the other libs, there's no standard for some "base" GNU/Linux system. That's where all these (IMHO damn broken) ideas like #AppImage, #Flatpak etc come from. Of course, you could just link statically instead, seems people don't get that any more 🙈

Anyways, quite some binary #Linux software will work "anywhere" as long as the required libs are not too old (looking e.g. at browsers...). And having a #Linuxulator userland built from source *should* enable you to just add ports for missing libraries. Well, in theory 🙈

@debacle
Use one #appimage before - went pretty well 😉
I give #flatpak a try to see how it is. (Don't per say need it - but fun to tinker with)

@tripplehelix
There are pretty good also 😉
Used the 0AD #AppImage before 😎

AppImages are really great, they said. They just work, they said.

這是用 #Rust 的 #Rocket 後端框架產生的可執行檔，用 #Appimage 把相依函式庫包起來，放到 website hosting service 執行

感覺可以跑 Rust-based 的 #lemmy ？
