21.0.1
Pre-release
A new major release because of breaking change: desktop integration for AppImage is removed in favour of AppImageLauncher.
This change is done according to numerous requests from AppImage developers. Please note, that initially, desktop integration support was implemented in this way, simply because it was a recommended by AppImage solution in that days.
AppImage currently working toward making AppImageLauncher a replacement, but this is still work in progress (but AppImageLauncher was tested and it works except one bug).
If you are confused and think that it makes your Linux app users life more problematic — consider using snap and publish to store. snap is already default target for Linux (alongside AppImage) and if you build on Windows, only snap is being build by default.
Publishing snap to store is not yet automatized, but it will done as part of final electron-builder 21 release.
