[PRQ#43608] Deletion Request for alephium-wallet-appimage
MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for alephium-wallet-appimage [2]: Please don't upload AppImage binaries of Electron- (Chromium) based applications. These are hugely bloated and go against Arch's Electron application guidelines, namely that they should use and depend on one of the electron packages carried by Arch repo. I know that creating good quality packages is hard work, but that doesn't mean that it should be okay to spam the AUR with hundreds of foreign binary packages which duplicate a lots of binary libraries and runtimes already existing in the Arch Linux operating system. This is not Windows, where bloat and duplication is the norm. Please learn and adhere to Linux principles. When there is source available, use primarily that to build and package an application. Or in case of Electron applications, you can choose to use the ASAR files with Arch repo's electron runtime, and create a -bin suffixed electron package.
