Not that it’s bad. For me, it’s actually very useful, I just find it mildly amusing that an app for managing AppImages is packaged as a Flatpak, despite the two formats being widely known as competitors*.
* Okay, most people (including me) would say that the two formats are for different use cases and aren’t directly competitors, but for the eyes of a lot of AppImage purists and Flatpak critics, they are.

This is not really a competition. Options are good.
Speaking of that app, I have been using it for some of my programs that are only available as an AppImage for sometime now and I can confirm it works really great.

OK well I’m not sure where the AppImage “purists” and Flatpak “critics” are but I’ve not really encountered them.
Tip: take a look at r/Linux and the Phoronix forums 😉
Let’s trigger some peeps:
Is there a docker image available?
Just give me the source code. Under GPLv3 of course.
May I interject for a moment. What you are referring to as a Docker Image is actually an Open Container.org Image or OCI… Continues stallman quote
I bet the dev gets a lot of angry comments over that, a absolute hero!
What’s off? That looks like it might be useful.
Tool for managing AppImages is distributed only as a flatpak.
I mean they are two things that co-exist, it’s not like they’re in commercial competition. Flatpak itself is usually distributed as an RPM or deb.
OP is mostly joking about the appimage utility not having an appimage itself
It’s a statement, it’s about sending a message!
