AM 10.1 released
The Application Manager for AppImages just hit version 10.1 with a serious push toward autonomy and less manual overhead for anyone managing portable software. A new custom PATH now caches essential binaries like appimagetool locally so the tool stops wasting bandwidth repeatedly downloading them during install or conversion tasks. Updates to option -t and portable2appimage support also streamline handling of GitHub archives that violate standard distribution rules while adding an upgrade alias for convenience. The application count now stands at over 3,019 items with new games and tools added while removing software from slow or obsolete domains.
