Im looking for a easy way to run Yuzu emulator, but the appimange version has no updater at all.

Is the flatpack version (from discovery app store) worth it?

    flatpaks of emulators will always have worse performance no comparison needed flatpaks are bad. appimages are the fastest type of"package"

      It be interested to understand why. Flatpaks are basically just using containerization and usually from my experience you only see performance issues with IO when using things like overlayfs which I assume flatpaks don’t have a need for.

    Yes. I don’t have direct sources, but they’re out there, and AppImage versions do perform better. EmuDeck uses AppImage when available for the emulators it installs for this reason.
