Unfortunately they still don't provide a PPA for their developer build, so I have to update it manually which is extremely annoying.

edit: I gotta say, why the fuck would someone downvote this comment?

Manually? I downloaded their .tar.gz, have unpacked it in a location my user can write to, and rely on the built-in auto-update mechanism. Works fine.

PPAs are specific to one commercial distribution. Shouldn't they offer a flatpak or something similarly cross distro?
