@sheeepdev Seems like you are using a snap package. This is a text rendering issue in GTK due to some fontconfig issues (see Snapped app not loading fonts on Fedora (and Arch)). As per my testing this issue only shows up for strictly confined snap package (which is the snap published) but not for classic snap app.

You may try to execute the following commands in your terminal to reset fontconfig cache:

sudo rm /var/cache/fontconfig/*
rm ~/.cache/fontconfig/*
fc-cache -r

After executing the above commands, you can view the error message and verify & fix the specific issue in the issue tracker.

After running these commands, its still the same.

but i discovered that it does work on the appimage version but it gives me the javascript error (the one in faq thats pretty common) but when i do the solution on the faq it doesn't work
