    Distrobox is great and I also used on Fedora Silverblue before switching to NixOS (with similar use cases).

    For running AppImages there’s also appimage-run on NixOS. https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Appimage

      I’m aware, but the appimage I run (Slippi Launcher) will run other appimages, and appimage-run can’t handle that, since it extracts the appimage, then runs the contents, but it won’t automatically do that for other appimages that are run.

      Which is why I used a Distrobox and it was awesome, worked like a charm. I used Arch previously, and I just made an Arch distrobox and it worked perfectly.
