AppImage builds are the slowest, because they're incompatible with binary wheels; and installing Linux GUI toolkits (which are on a constant "install the latest" push) is fundamentally incompatible with using an old base image.
As of today, it's impossible to install Toga on any manylinux image; PySide2 can't be installed on any supported manylinux image, and PySide6 only works on 2_28. Even when the install does work, there are so many incompatibility and binary dependency issues that it's just not worth the oxygen to keep AppImage alive.
