EDIT: I got the app image working in linux by opening from terminal with '--no-sandbox' attached to the command. It seems like most AppImages have lost access to the root sandboxing directory?? So:
./vripper-x.AppImage --no-sandbox
The Linux x64 image does not open anymore, as the version of electron is outdated within the package. I get the following error when attempting to run from terminal:

(vripperx:31755): Pango-ERROR **: 07:22:03.056: Harfbuzz version too old (1.3.1)
Trace/breakpoint trap
While searching for a solution, I came across
this post, referencing the old version of harfbuzz. The electron devs stated that it can only be fixed by updating the version of electron used within the app itself. As of now, I can't run ANY appimages, as all of them are experiencing the same issue with old versions of electron; including the vripper-x (x64) Linux appimage.
For reference, I am on Debian Testing / Bullseye. Is there a possibility of this appimage being updated, or even a .deb package that I am unaware of? Currently I am running the Windows portable executable file via wine. Thanks!
