Moving my comment from the original thread as well:

AppImageUpdate can be built in to make it check for updates and auto-update when the app is started.

flatpak also provide sandboxing which is not present in appimage

[tpimh]

For sandboxing AppImages, Firejail can be used. I am not opposed to the idea of publishing also to FlatHub, just saying.

does not make sense in that case spinning up a vm could also be a option with greater sanboxing.
flatpak solves somthing that appimage can not app image can be a good option but by design it is insecure and should not be used by anyone.
