I like how know one wants snap but everyone chose flatpak.

I like flatpaks

Now I'm just hoping AppImage will follow in Snap's footsteps.

Appimage is better for cli apps. Different purposes. Neovim appimage is very useful

Appimage is broken in many ways. Use a container

I've never had problems with appimage, and for me, containers are for my servers. I don't want stateless, sandboxed applications for my workstations.

In what ways is it broken?

Containers don't need to be stateless. I use Distrobox to create environments that I run my software in. Podman is the best for Distrobox but it can use the docker backend as well.
