Taking votes and comments on Lotion containerized package

Would any of you be interested in Snap, Flatpack or AppImage package of Lotion?

I find cloning and installing easy but do you think it will be useful for you to keep updated for newer versions if there was a package?

I find it easy enough to install as well, but I would appreciate a Snap package.

I would prefer a Flatpak but the current blocker on this seems to be a lack of support by electron-builder. AppImages lack proper desktop integration (icons cannot be pinned to a panel) and lack of proper update processes. I also find the absence of repository management/installation in AppImage counter-intuitive for casual Linux users. Let's focus resources on making a snap package.
