When I clicked on new app image, the OS told me, that program /name of app/ will be launched, I clicked "Continue" and it runs! No meddling with "chmod" or anything like that.
Same, I love AppImages for that. I just wish they also had way to contain configurations instead of putting it on the system. That would make it even more portable.
ELF and .sh files need to be set executable, chmod +x file, before they can be run, unless your DE does that for you
Dunno about appimages
KDE does exactly like that
(I am using MX Linux)
At least for Ubuntu, you do need to set the permissions of the AppImage before it'll launch.
I still haven't figured out how to make .desktop files work yet.
What chmod step?
