GitHub - AppOutlet/AppOutlet: A Universal linux app store
github.com
A Universal linux app store. Contribute to AppOutlet/AppOutlet development by creating an account on GitHub.

I noticed the AppOutlet repo has been archived, but I really liked the idea of one store to rule them all (I.e. snaps, appimages, flatpaks, etc. in one place).

Any current recommendations for an alternative?

    I love GNOME, but Gnome Software is hot garbage. If KDE gets their gtk/adwaita tweaks in place, I might recommend Discover instead.

    Also, arguably, by the most argumentative people, AppStream is also hot garbage, which is what was supposed to solve your problem regarding “too many package managers”.

    I personally would wish AppStream didn’t suck and that it was also aware of NPM and crate packages. They’ve sort of been forgotten or relegated “developer tools”… even though you can pull full applications and system libraries.

    How many “it’s 2025 already” problems do we have to encounter this year?
