I see an awful lot of posts like OP here where they're for some reason thinking that using a specific distro, or even DE, locks them into using specific packages.

You can literally install anything on any Linux distro. Some things might take a bit of work, sure, but they're all just a Linux system underneath.

Install the right dependencies, get the app somehow (through a package manager, or source),put the files in the right place, and bobs your uncle.
