There’s an appimaged daemon you can install that will manage them, and it watches a bunch of folders to integrate appimages with xdg and whatever window manager you’ve got. ~/Applications looks like an easy pick, or ~/.local/bin.
Appimages you decide to keep you can just move there!

Why do you keep appimages? I don’t do that and now I’m wondering if I do something wrong. But I try to install from repos as much as possible.
The appImage is the program. If you don’t keep it, you don’t have the program.
I’m sorry, I was an idiot. I thought appimages are debs when I made the comment.
I’ve used one or two tools that only distribute for my system as an appimage or as source code.
I can’t always be bothered to set up a compilation environment or deal with removing dependencies.
I only use one or two regularly, but it’s nice to have them integrated!
I prefer from the distro’s repos, then source, then flatpack, then appimage. Sometimes you have to take what you can get!
