Linux install help
AppImage, .deb, and .rpm — copy-paste commands

AppImage — make executable, then run:

If the AppImage fails to start on Ubuntu/Debian, install FUSE: sudo apt install libfuse2 (or fuse3 on newer systems).

.deb — install with dpkg, or double-click the file:

The second command fixes missing dependencies.

.rpm — Fedora / RHEL:

Or sudo rpm -i ~/Downloads/"LaymenStage 2 Lite-2.3.1-Linux-x86_64.rpm".
