Switching to Linux is easy to start and hard to get comfortable with. The install goes fine — then you need an app, and suddenly you're staring at apt, flatpak, and snap with no idea which one you actually want. PenguinPath is being built to fix that: one place to search, with plain-English explanations along the way. (AppImage is real too — we explain what it is, but don't pretend to search it, since there's no reliable way to.)
Unified search
One search box across apt, flatpak, and snap — instead of three separate tools with three different mental models.
PlannedPlain-English explainers
When two package formats offer the same app, know what actually differs before you pick one.
PlannedGuided first steps
A short, honest path for people who are new to Linux and don't yet know what they don't know.
