Of course... and I'm not suggesting that every app in a linux distro should be as such. You can dynamically link with Rust, Go, etc. That said, for one of the 3-4 GUI apps that most people use, the distro process tends to leave people with relatively old versions missing critical bug fixes or features. I tend to keep my host OS pretty bare, and most of my runtime apps in Flatpak and the stuff I'm working on in Docker.
