I tried from your link in other post and landed at this page
https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-plu...continuous
Took the instructions and executed
1. GMIC-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage
2. ResynthesizerPlugin-Gimp-2.10-linux.AppImage
Now I have
/home/name/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/plug-ins/
But GIMP is not reading anything from it.
The Resynthesizer appimage should install but have you the correct version of Gimp? Make life easy for yourself as:
The Gimp Appimage: To recap:
Get it from https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-appimage/releases/ There are different versions available. Some are 'withplugins' and contain extra library files and one or two pre-installed plugins resynthesizer and gimp_gmic_qt
There is the current 'stable' 2.10.18 get the one with plugins
https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-app...4.AppImage
or there is a weekly updated pre-Gimp 2.10.20 Worth considerating, some notable bugs are fixed such as the python non-working font chooser.

Installation: Copy to a folder somewhere, does not always need to be in your home folder. Make the file executable, Run it.
If you need a desktop file for a menu entry, use the kde menu editor: https://i.imgur.com/3EfBYmd.jpg
Working:
Same as a regular gimp it makes a user profile: ~/.config/GIMP-AppImage/2.10/
Any extra resources you need fonts / brushes / scripts / plugins go there.
