Anything else?

This bug is related to the fact that somehow inbetween 2.3.0 and 2.3.1 there was build system change. Thus appimagetool switched from xz to zstd compression which is not well supported in Ubuntu 24.04 and probably in its derivatives.

bd6cfd6cec/src/dev-utils/platform/unix/build_appimage.sh.in (L37)

Probably adding something along --comp xz would have fixed it, but AppImageLauncher version in this ubuntu is pretty old. Seems like kinda pointless solution since launching once works just fine.

#11516 might be related to this too.
