Radegast Viewer as appimage or apt?

Hello,there are still very few softwares that still tie me to windows and Radegast Viewer is one of those, for some time few years ago i had tried it in Garuda Linux Dragonized and was working fine, but it was made in aur if im not wrong, can someone make it in appimage or apt?
On their site they give the sourcecode, i really hope there is some good programmer that can make version for apt or appimage.

The whole site reads like it's (poorly) AI-generated to get your money, to be perfectly honest. The About Us section doesn't even match the people nor the description who appear in the GitHub page.

If you really want this for some reason, contact the developers, whoever they actually are.

PS: Removed link.

Hmmm hehe yes i noticed it only now because they did not have a site as i remember previously, i had sent a request to them already but it seems they are always busy fixing issues for the current windows version as my topic seem to have disappeared or maybe its there but i missed it damn me for not saving bookmark of it i created an other request today i hope they answer it soon, maybe the aur version is someone's else work, but the last time i used Garuda Linux was 3 years ago. I have also tried downloading the exe and starting it but at some point it gives me installation error in Bottles too.

I did grab the AUR .rpm file and converted it to a .deb, but ran into trouble with the fact that all that does is launch the .exe executable, then instruct that to utilize Wine.

Which... Zorin OS does automatically, anyway. This removes the necessity for the .deb or the .rpm.

Since you used it before this way, it seems likely you would be able to now. Just grab the .exe and run it on Zorin OS. At the prompt, install Zorin-Windows-App-Support to run the application Ragegast.

I already did that but it gives me this error while it tries to install net framework 48:

here is the content of the log hope to post it correctly:

.NET Framework 48 was successfully installed:

Here, we see where Ragegast failed to install:

But it only gives the very generic Error 0x80070643 code which really could be anything...

You might need to ask on the WineHQ forums about specific dependency issues with Burn and Wine.
Burn is the software Bundle installer being used here.

Hmm im having issues registering there it gives me
"You have provided an invalid answer to the question.
You have exceeded the maximum number of registration attempts for this session. Please try again later."

Even when i give the right answer, i hope they fix it soon that so i can register there.

I managed to get through the installer using Bottles and sys-wine-10, but even when the install was (apparently) successful, Radagast wouldn't launch.

What if trying an earlier version of the software?
The Radegast website is... odd.

It has pretend Volunteers with rather comical descriptions and a "Lorem Ipsum" segment at the bottom.
I am not sure if that is humor or... something else. But it makes me question the stable maintenance of the software.
