fuse has been demoted from Ubuntu main in favor of fuse3; it would not be appropriate to re-promote it to main and expand the security surface of a default Ubuntu install (fuse is a very security-relevant facility), and Ubuntu images build only from main. So this is a wontfix for the Ubuntu desktop, libfuse2 is not going to be brought back into the default install and users who want to use libfuse2-dependent AppImages will need to install this library themselves beforehand.
Our community flavors are free to make their own decisions about whether to bundle libfuse2 by default, as several of them did before the release. ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix ** Changed in: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to ubuntustudio-meta in Ubuntu.

You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage if you run it with the --appimage-extract option. See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE for more information --- Simply installing libfuse2 resolves this issue. Some flavors seem to still include it. I noticed that today's Ubuntu MATE daily still does. Ubuntu and Xubuntu do not.
