Why use Ares? (ares-emu.net)

I saw this Project on Flathub and tried it. It works well enough and I like that its ready to go out of the box without needing to install cores like Retroarch. The UI is different from Retroarch, but is there any big advantage? Does anybody use it? And why?

Ares has a N64 core that's mostly homegrown (not based on any existing emulator like Mupen) and has a lot of promise. It's actually probably already the best N64 emulator, but I don't think many people know that.
