What is the preferred way to install Viber in a 21.10 desktop environment

In my previous ubuntu installs I’ve downloaded a deb for 12.04 from the viber website. From there I have needed to install some dependencies; not a biggie. But now I’m seeing viber in the snap store. I’m thinking cool, this should be easy.

"viber-unofficial" snap is missing a dependency on glibc 2.33. I thought snaps would include their dependecies.
"viber-mtd" – Viber desktop support ubuntu. Doesn’t seem to be doing anything.

When I try to install the deb from the viber website, I get the message "not supported" in the snap store application.

I’m running gnome. 21’10 flavor.

>Solution :

You have three download options:

1. AppImage from https://download.cdn.viber.com/desktop/Linux/viber.AppImage

2. deb-file from https://download.cdn.viber.com/cdn/desktop/Linux/viber.deb

3. Flatpak to install with the following commands:

   sudo apt update
   sudo apt install flatpak
   flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
   flatpak install flathub com.viber.Viber
   

I find traditional deb-based method preferable.
