❌ P1 — The new AppImage link uses the filename pattern activitywatch-linux-x86_64.AppImage, but the actual release assets for ActivityWatch use a versioned pattern like activitywatch-{tag}-linux-x86_64.AppImage (consistent with the other links in the same section, e.g. the .deb and .zip). The PR description itself notes that Tauri asset naming is inconsistent, but the AppImage link is for the non-Tauri build, which follows the versioned convention. As written, the generated release notes will point to a URL that does not exist for any release, producing a 404 for users clicking the AppImage link. The fix is to include the {tag} segment in the filename, matching the .deb and .zip links.


ℹ️ An alternate [Tauri-based build](https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/tree/master/aw-tauri) is also available for Windows, macOS, and Linux — look for the `activitywatch-tauri-*` assets attached to this release below. On Linux, the Tauri build additionally supports Wayland.
