There is AppImages. There's also tools to package games as AppImages with Wine.
Oh AppImages the thing that takes 20 seconds to launch an Application :) What a great option. Not even Joplin launches as an AppImage in a decent time. For what's worth Flatpak was a godsend. Either solutions still have the issues I described before tho.
AppImage launch times should be not that far off of running it barebone unless you have a MASSIVE appimage, as it uses FUSE, but I get your frustration, especially on slower hardware.
They are and I guess Joplin isn't that big. Flatpaks are way, way faster and make the same thing... but better in all ways. i7 8th gen with NVME btw.
