Hi @adil192, thanks for submitting. Now I am curious: The squashfs image inside this AppImage uses xz compression, whereas we normally use zlib (old) or zstd (new). Did you make this choice intentionally?

That might be because I'm using appimage-builder. My recipe doesn't say anything about xz compression

OK, thanks. @azubieta would you know the answer?

Hi, sorry for the late response. I have been quite busy lately. The xz format was set at some point because it showed better compression ratios. We could make it configurable if needed.

@probonopd Does this link auto update?

Only if the GitHub repository and AppImage file follow standard naming. E.g.,

  • github.com/MyName/MyApp
  • MyApp-0.1.0-x86_64.AppImage
