I'm on real Fedora Linux, installed on build-in hard desk of my laptop.

My laptop is of switchable VGA. I mean it has 2 VGA: integrated VGA (intel
Corporation Graphics 5500) + dedicated VGA (Radeon R7 M265 2GB).

Please notice that my dedicated VGA is of the following state: 

"the driver does do dynamic switching.  The hardware is the same.  There are no
displays connected to the dGPU, so it can only be used for offscreen rendering
(e.g, render offload) where the frame is rendered by the dGPU & then copied to
the integrated chip for display."

This mean that by default application use intel HD Graphics VGA (my RAM is 8
GB). To run application with Radeon driver, then user need to use:

env DRI_PRIME=1 <application name> In this case application will processes by
Radeon VGA of 2 GB then passed to intel HD Graphics (which use free part of
RAM). So, if available part of RAM is 6 GB & user use "env DRI_PRIME=1" then
application will get ADDITIONAL 2 GB of dedicated VGA.

I'm on Xorg.

By default, AppImage should run (when doubled clicked as I did) using intel HD
Graphics VGA.

Regarding your request to use daily AppImage: please is this cary any risk to
distroy my Fedora ?? I'm affraid from this. Please notice that I use Fedora as
my primary system on my primary laptop where all may documents are stored. For
that I'm very conservative with my Fedora Linux. When I was on Fedora 24, I did
not upgraded to Fedora 25. But I waited till Fedora 26 released then upgraded
from 24 to 26.
