Describe the bug after installing Docker and following all instructions, including post-installation steps, I get Command 'pip' not found, but can be installed with: sudo apt install python3-pip

after trying that other command, I get

Sorry I can't help on the pip installation issue, it can be frustrating if you're not familiar with Python/LInux.

I'd suggest you try the No-Python Install method.

Hi. I finally managed to solve it and install it by updating Python. However, when I try to use it I get Error: /home/user/.config/Signal/config.json not found in directory /home/user/.config/Signal Any way to solve this? Thanks in advance
