Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the anytype desktop client is distributed to Linux in three formats (https://download.anytype.io): AppImage, deb, and snap.

• deb
  • is a format specific to debian-based distributions (e.g. ubuntu and pop-os).
  • the anytype team has to rely on random people repackaging the app for different distros. Creationg many different points of failure.
• snaps
  • flatpak is a far more favored option in the Linux community.
  • Can't build for ARM64 on AMD64 (Publish linux ARM binaries #83)

Describe the solution you'd like

I suggest only building AppImage targetting amd64 and arm64 then making them also available as flatpaks on flathub. This can be done by using flathub/flatpak-external-data-checker. Here is an example of it working in action.

This drastically simplifies the building, testing, debugging, and maintaining process for the Linux platform.
