I disagree with you.

1. Creating a flatpak digikam does not mean that you will not be able
to get it from your own distribution, if you are using Linux,
whatever your distribution does.

2. Earlier, Gilles said that it takes him a huge amount of time to
build and rebuild the appimages. If some other infrastructure can
do it for him, this will mean that he will have more time to spend on:
making dk even better or "having a life" or...

Gilles is one of the main driving force behind DK, we have to trust
him and his judgment. Thanks Gilles.
