AppImages are still widely used, it's just that the tooling surrounding them sucks.
At the end of the day, they're glorified zip files, not much different to self-extracting .exe files, and you'll have to figure out what libraries your application needs to run on various distros. Some bundlers attempt to do this for you but they're not infallible, so be prepared to test in different VMs.
