"Wonderful AppImage manager and updater. Really helped to take the labour out of manually creating menu entries and shortcuts. "

"I wish this app was standard in all Linux distros. Superior to almost every screenshot tool out there. I love Mint's default tool for screengrabs, but Flameshot provides so much more functionality and is faster to use.. Image if they decided to capture screen recordings? Would easily replace Peek in that department, if the quality of this app is anything to go by. "

"A brilliant app for education purposes. However, the Flatpak simply does not work on Linux Mint. Fails to launch on any of my students' desktops, my personal laptop, and at-home workstation - all of which run Linux Mint. Would recommend downloading from developer's site."

"I use to love how easy Steam was to install on Linux, but their current crash-loop makes this app unusable on Mint and other distros. Sad day for Linux gaming. "

"I love the look and simplicity of the app, but in a world where Calibre and ReadEra exist, forcing users to create an account before loading books and reading is not a wise or user-friendly UX move. Maybe consider leading users to subscribing instead of forcing it."

"Absolutely staple for lovers of e-books. I use this app to help organise my books for my students, and frequently use it in my reading classes and varsity assignments. The link to Amazon Fires works flawlessly, and should come pre-installed on Linux Mint, in my opinion. However, they need to find a way for this app to auto update as a Flatpak, as it constantly redirects to the app's website instead of the software centre, when prompting to update. Regardless, a fantastic piece of open source software."
