AppImage or Flatpack of Obseron

I was just reading that CentOS 8 will be EOL in December 2021 - only a year after Obseron released support. CentOS 7 is still supported until June 2024, but it would be nice to have an option to easily jump to a different distro like Ubuntu Server or Fedora Server. Also, chasing CentOS Stream sounds like it could be a development nightmare.

Are there any plans to package Obseron into an AppImage or Flatpack?

  Hey Robin,

  We've had no plans to package into an AppImage, Flatpack or any alternative to those, but we have gotten some inquiries about Ubuntu versions so we'll look into that next.

  While CentOS Stream sounds troublesome, in most cases it will probably be much like the current release versions (like 6, 7 or 8 were) as most system are offline installations and do not get updated that often.

  Hello, this is the only mention of Ubuntu in the FAQ, so I am leaving a comment here. Are there any intentions of supporting Debian systems, such as Ubuntu in the future? If so, do you have an estimate on when it would be possible?
