Linux Distribution via AppImage file

[ghost]

There are quite a few distros when it comes to Linux. Please also provide an AppImage file for release. Thank you.

@wuzhe if you are still in need of an AppImage compilation, I have modified GUI distribution files to create one for non-rpm systems. You can find it, and supporting info here: https://github.com/who-biz/mullvadvpn-app-appimage

Hi - I see this was converted to a discussion. Let me know if there is any way I can help. This would enable me to run Mullvad on more systems without worrying about missing critical security updates, when maintaining it myself.

Hi @who-biz, we are in the wake of migrating feature suggestions from issue to discussions so we might be slower than usual to respond. Sorry about that!

Personally I think it would be a net-positive to distribute the app as an AppImage if possible as the app would reach more users. With that said, there is no plan to distribute the app as an AppImage. I'll bring up the discussion internally and see what other people's opinions are!
