How did the AppImage package size blow up by a factor of 10 since v0.4.12?

[dandv]

I've just downloaded the last appImage, v0.5.14, and it's even larger than LM Studio - 1.4GB.

Then I found an older download, v0.4.5, and it's only 150MB.

With this scaling law, should we plan to buy dedicated SSDs for Jan any time soon? :)

[luzfcb]

To be more specific, the size increase from 387 MB to 1.38 GB happened in 0.5.8 and affected the .deb, .AppImage, .exe installers.
Was this on purpose or did someone accidentally commit a file that shouldn't have been committed?
