Pretty much everyone who's ever used an AppImage on Linux, for one.
This is also still the norm for macOS, from the user's point of view (yes, the application is technically a folder, but as far as most end users are concerned it's a single "thing" that gets dropped into their Applications folder). Still the norm for Windows, too, at least for installers (and "portable" apps, while not as common as ones installed to Program Files, certainly ain't obscure, even in this day and age).
