Appimages, snaps and flatpaks
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Snaps, hell no. I wouldn't touch anything Canonical TBH.
Appimages are very chaotic.
Fkatpaks leave a bunch of trash after uninstalling.
I use Flatpaks, while they are not perfect, they are improving.
From my experience, most of the things I'd like to delete after uninstalling are in
~/.var/app/(App ID)/
.
