Con Snap only
For Linux, the choice seems to have been to offer PencilSheep as snap only, sorry, no .deb, no .rpm, no nothing. If you do not have/ use snap (for many, including valid reasons), PencilSheep is beyond your reach.
Con Project no longer supported?
Although it is offered widely (including Google), the devs website seems dead. Hence, it is unclear whether it is still developed and supported actively.
