The process for using software distributed with a flatpak goes like this:

  1. Install flatpak with root / sudo
  2. Reboot
  3. Actually install whatever software you wanted to install in the first place.

The process for using an appimage goes like this:

  1. Download the appimage.
  2. Run the appimage. No privileges necessary unless the software in the app image requires them.

I might even go so far as switching distros to avoid using a flatpak.
