Heyho, i tried to install it via doubleclick but it says,i have not the right program for it. tried to look it up on the net which would be the right one. seems to be fuse for AppImages right? Well then i checked, its up to date an installed. Any help here for me? I would appreciate it. Thanks

Does the second-last point of the FAQ address your problem? It's only in German right now, but basically it's about whether you allowed to execute the AppImage itself – it's not opened in another program. So:

either chmod +x Wohnungsbot-1.5.0.AppImage
or in the file manager: right-click > Properties > Permissions > Allow executing file as program ...then you should be able to double-click or execute from the CLI.

Feel free to re-open if that doesn't solve your issue.
