I'm installing the Ultimaker Cura 3D printer slicer program from here (https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/releases/tag/5.1.0) onto Linux Ubuntu 20.04.

1. What is the difference between Ultimaker-Cura-5.1.0-linux-modern.AppImage and Ultimaker-Cura-5.1.0-linux.AppImage? Which should I use? Why? How do they differ?

I've posted this on their forum too.

Update: important installation reminder to myself and others:

After downloading the desired AppImage for your operating system, per the accepted answer below, be sure to make it executable as well! Then, you can double-click on it in a file browser to run it.

Ex: how to install Cura on Linux Ubuntu 20.04:

# download it wget https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/releases/download/5.3.0/UltiMaker-Cura-5.3.0-linux.AppImage # Make it executable chmod +x UltiMaker-Cura-5.3.0-linux.AppImage # Now run it. # Option 1: double-click the file in a GUI file manager # Option 2: run it from the command-line: ./UltiMaker-Cura-5.3.0-linux.AppImage # run in foreground ./UltiMaker-Cura-5.3.0-linux.AppImage & # run in background
