I'm and end user working for end users.

My main use case is end user desktops.

Which isn't user-friendly.

Well, I'm just automating what people currently have to do manually : visit GitHub and download DEB and install DEB.

If the automated process would be dangerous then the manual process also would be, and that would be on the maintainer for not providing an APT repository or a Flatpak, not on the user for just downloading from GitHub.

Why the OOP structure and syntax ? Sorry but it makes it difficult to read for me even in my own language 😅

I didn't know there was one, that's interesting, thanks.

Updates must still be delayed because of being third-party though.

I'd be willing to implement additional features for people who are extra careful about security.

Could you please explain what does this consist in ?

Thanks

What's a FIFO ?

I've also looked into VFS but found nothing I'd have the skills to implement. 😅

I'll look into it, thanks !

Discord not automating downloads of DEBs is one of the reasons motivating me to do this.

Personally I need the desktop client because I mod it with plugins that are so useful that I can't do without these anymore.

Alternatively, there are third-party repositories here and here.

There still is delay between Discord releases and repository updates so I still believe dynapt to be the better solution.
