    what precisely about this do you consider insecure? do you understand how appimage works?

      Yes. Do you?

      • they don’t force sandboxing
      • they don’t have any permission system

      Both are dealbreakers for people that develop software and don’t want their keys leaked in the next supply-chain exploit.

        oh no! and none of that really matters to this person they just wanted an easy way to manage shit.

        and I also develop software. lack of sandboxing is hardly a deal breaker. its just something you manage and if you care you ensure stuff is properly boxed.

        appimage does have tools that are capable of sandboxing quite effectively and automatically.
