I hope so, but don't get your hopes up please. It is just a hobby, won't be big and professional like musescore.

It's a pity that most appimages don't actually contain everything they need. A particular issue is musl based systems. Also, if you want AppImages to appear in things like program launchers you do need to do some integration.

Re: What notation editor do you use and why?
There are also huge problems with Flatpaks not being able to use system-wide Audio Plugins. what's the point? In my experience Qtractor, MusE, Cinelerra-GG, Kdenlive, AviDemux, MuseScore AppImages have all functioned perfectly
I'm sure with some timely reports to the AppImage builders and if it is a systemic problem to the AppImage developers most of the ones that don't work could be fixed and some sort of launcher setup could be integrated. All of these formats have issues... the answer is not to create another format, it is to improve the best one, for my money a self contained executable binary that can be removed with a simple delete from any file manager and not spread it's guts through the filesystem is the common sense format to support.. If you have an Image that doesn't work then send the devs a bug report!

I tried MuseScore 4, it's nice, but I would say it's not quite what the folks on their forum announced it will become, i.e. a full-fledged DAW+notation program. As of now, the Muse Sounds suite is not complete. If, say, you want to use an acoustic bass or a drum set, the sounds used are from the standard MuseScore font. There is no SZF support, as you know, no LV2, I haven't tried if Linux vst plugins work. In the new version, the piano roll editor is also gone, or at least I couldn't find it. Also, it did not integrate well with my Unity desktop. For what I used to use MuseScore, i.e. for music ideas, composition, transcribing, even MIDI arranging, I prefer MS3. I could also use Frescobaldi for that, in combination with QSynth as a MIDI backend, but still, MuseScore is more convenient with notes preview (or pre-listen, eh...), looping and all that.
For engraving, that is, for music that's supposed to be printed, I still prefer Lilypond. Another program I've been playing lately with is MUP. I'd say it's a lot simpler to use than Lilypond and the output is nice and clean. But Lilypond is more flexible in terms of using various text and music fonts, for example jazz fonts.

VST does nor work in Musescore 4.0 for Linux (promised for 4.1, whenever that may be)
The new muse-hub service, needed to download the new Muse Sounds orchestral library, uses torrent protocol, and insists to run as root!

And is proprietary. Let's wait for native VST3 support.

What does mean MUP?
