I use Cura for no reason other than it's simply the most popular, and easiest to find help with 🤷
Also Prusa only provides an AppImage, which is incredibly inconvenient.
There's also a community built Flatpak if you're ok with that
Welp. I see it now but when I looked it up through Gnome software, it showed me nothing. Guess I should know better by now.
There's also Orca and SuperSlicer which are forks of the same code as Prusa.
What is an appimage?
Basically an executable package of an entire application for Linux. It doesn't integrate with package managers meaning you'll have to update it manually.
I have no idea. It's like a program that Linux doesn't recognize as a program.
I use the Flatpak version.
