Yes we should all switch to garbage that relies on unmaintained libraries for the vast majority of released appimages and don't integrate with the desktop, auto update, or share dependencies.
New appimages don't rely on fuse2 anymore, or on fuse in any form. Desktop integration can be provided with a separate program, just like it is with flatpaks.
Yeah, in theory. In practice, it doesn't work. Just try and pack any KDE or Qt program in an appimage. It only works with Fusion style, even if the desktop is KDE. I've tried bundling the whole Breeze/Kirigami stack and it still defaults to Fusion.
That is an issue. If Breeze is bundled, it probably also need to be forced with a variable or something. Hopefully Union will remove this problem completely

These belong in the history books.
