In one of the larger distros, Ubuntu . MComix is horribly outdated, both snap, and apt versions..
there is no simple way to try the app.

    We do not have direct influence on distribution packaging. Please refer to these lists to check which version of MComix is available in which version:
    Ubuntu
    Debian

    snap is pretty much the same, except that I do not know who published the existing package, and if they plan to ever update it.

    That being said, any MComix version greater or equal to 1.x should do fine. In reality, there weren't that many changes in the last ten years, mostly bug fixes and some minor improvements.

    The snap packed version had a font issue, open file dialog is unreadable.

    the apt version, suggested by https://sourceforge.net/p/mcomix/wiki/Installation/#ubuntu-debian is version 2.1.0 and fails like this:

    $ mcomix 
    20:50:25 [MainThread] ERROR: You don't have the required version of the Python Imaging Library Fork (Pillow) installed.
    20:50:25 [MainThread] ERROR: Installed Pillow version is: 10.0.0
    20:50:25 [MainThread] ERROR: Required Pillow version is: 6.0.0 or higher
    

    Can you please provide some binary source? preferably appimage or .deb package?
