I downloaded the appimage a few minutes ago, and put it in a new directory
called "AppImages."
In addition, there is a plug-in that you can also run, but that
is all above my paygrade. ( See G'Mic for Krita ).

In the link below, is a screenshot of krita 4.4. beta working nominally in
Gnome
3.38 ( using my Rawhide install with custom wallpaper )

Disclaimer: I had no earthly idea what the "chmod" command did until
about an hour ago.
I have been using Linux a little over three years for simple household task
and my hobby-business.
I did try to run this from terminal and got wayland / gnome area messages
and that a python file was
missing, but I did not get that when I double-clicked on it in in Gnome
Files
At the present moment, I only have doodling experience with GIMP and Krita
as shown in the screenshot.
But I once did a couple of real drawings back in 1993
( Microsoft had a drawing tool in Word 6.0 in 1993, if that rings a bell
with anybody ),
and I was proficient with AutoCAD 12 back in the mid 1990's.
So here is my next question:
Do some appimages contain proprietary blobs. If so, that would ruffle
some feathers, if Fedora
users recommended those appimages. Is that right ? Or does that sort
of fall into the same category as
installing third-party repos ??
