Describe the bug

FreeTube 0.20.0 running on x64 Linux. Notion window manager (though I doubt that has anything to do with it). Opening several videos in new windows from the subscriptions list, so as to watch later. After leaving the machine some for some hours and coming back to watch videos, they've lost connection and have to be reloaded (crtl-r). However, pressing ctrl-r always refreshes the first window that was opened in the stack, not the one that is currently focused.

Expected Behavior

Reloading the video (ctrl-r) should reload the currently focused window, not a backgrounded unfocused one.

Cannot replicate (Linux x64, portable). If you were to open up two windows from a fresh session and hit Ctrl+R, does it work correctly, or does it only happen after all windows are open for a while?

Lee-Adamson commented 4 months ago

Fresh session in Notion still behaves as described above. But then I fired it up in Xephyr with a non-tiling/tabbed window manager (Openbox) and it behaves as expected. I still believe that there is some manner of funny business going on with Freetube though, as this sort of thing only happens with Freetube, not with any other applications.

@Lee-Adamson Does the same issue happen for other Electron apps such as Visual Studio Code or Discord to mention some well-known ones?

Lee-Adamson commented 4 months ago

I have been unable to suss out how to open multiple windows in Discord or Element. They both seem to use modal dialogs for everything.

So I installed VS Code for testing purpose. I opened 3 different windows and moved them to different tab groups within Notion window manager. In any of these three windows, I can press control-shift-P and type "reload window". Doing so causes all three of the windows to close and then all three quickly reopen in the currently focused WM tab.

So the way Freetube and VSCode are handling reloading seems different. If there are any further tests I can do or other Electron applications you can recommend I try, please let me know.
