Trying to discover new/unheard Linux desktop programs (Sorry for the confusion).

Way to out-pedantize a pedant. Also, wikipedia isn’t exactly a credible source. While I wouldn’t personally split hairs on the use of “app”, TimeSquirrel isn’t wrong in that the use of that short-form wasn’t ubiquitous until the time of smart-phones, and more specifically, the iPhone.
Also, since we’re quoting sources, take a look at https://www.britannica.com/technology/mobile-app which specifically states “app” meaning “mobile device software”.
Luckily Wikipedia articles typically include sources:
