It was asked to on github if our appimage can be added to one of those apiimage repos (newer used them but hey, I'm software conservative at times) Maintainer was not turbo happy with our appimage (due to domain name instability?

I agree 100% with what was said but I also think it is important to have CinGG run on older computers to include 32-bit. My main computer O/S where I create the usual appimage is old and I am not capable of updating it without making mistakes. My other newer Fedora 42 O/S laptop is older unreliable hardware and I have not been able to get the latest appimage created on it yet due to time constraints. Anyway, the *packages provided by Andrey are a much better option than appimage* and serious users should do their own builds It was asked to on github if our appimage can be added to one of
