The fluxer appimage will 'install' itself into /opt/ without your knowledge. I think because it's essentially an electron package similar to stoat, standard notes and discord, large parts of it can self-update without needing to bump the actual package version, but this is really shitty behaviour considering what appimages are designed to do.
