How do you guys get software that is not in your distribution's repositories?

Appimages are crap too, but at least there is progress with AppMan, repos and that sandboxing solution.

Snaps are only sandboxed with Apparmor and snapd only allows a single repo (which contained malware multiple times) so get the hell off my lawn XD

Just use flatpak. It runs and installs local but still has the benefits of a package manager
