Not that it's bad. For me, it's actually very useful, I just find it mildly amusing that an app for managing AppImages is packaged as a Flatpak, despite the two formats being widely known as competitors*.

* Okay, most people (including me) would say that the two formats are for different use cases and aren't directly competitors, but for the eyes of a lot of AppImage purists and Flatpak critics, they are.

May I interject for a moment. What you are referring to as a Docker Image is actually an Open Container.org Image or OCI.... Continues stallman quote

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
