I must not have purged the .var file properly in my initial test. From advice on the linuxmint sub-reddit, I deleted one file:
/home/owen/.var/app/io.github.spacingbat3.webcord/config/WebCord/windowState
Upon relaunching Webcord, it regenerates this file and Webcord works properly.
However, this only works once. Subsequent launches of Webcord result in the original error.
This may be fixed with webcord v4.7.1, I will bump the flatpak
While the new version is building and getting published to the main flathub repo, it can be tested with the command here https://github.com/flathub/io.github.spacingbat3.webcord/pull/79#issuecomment-1936115103
If it does not work with that build, please test if the issue occurs with any non-flatpak build (the appimage should work most reliably) from https://github.com/SpacingBat3/WebCord/releases/tag/v4.7.1
The Flatpak of 4.7.1 still has this same bug.
The appimage does not have this bug, it works properly.
I too have the same issue with the Flatpak of 4.7.0. I just downgraded to the 4.6.1 for the moment since it works fine.
OS: Fedora 39 Flatpak version: 1.15.6 Webcord version: 4.7.0
hm im not sure what the issue could be, nothing really changed on the flatpak side for it to break
This morning Flatpak asked me to update the app to the version 4.7.1 but it still has the same issue. To be honest, it only worked the first time after the update, then it crashed with the same error again.
This error also occurs on my other Fedora system with the same Flatpak version, as well as a Debian 12 system I have with Flatpak 1.14.4. All of these have the default sandboxing permissions as well.
I'm 3-for-3 on the update to either Webcord 4.7.0 or 4.7.1 breaking. Rolling back to 4.6.1 solves the issue on all systems.
I noticed that flathub.json
was changed to say, "This application is no longer maintained. Please use the non-flatpak version of webcord or a different discord client."
I hope I'm just misunderstanding the situation, but I take it that means the main developer has stepped away from this project? Is there a way to change ownership / get a new maintainer?
I too am concerned about the above message.
If it's only the flatpak version, why?
Snaps are way too dependent on canonical's whims, and every appimage I've ever has the misfortune to try has either been sloppily built or just plain broken. The management infrastructure for them is also way behind flatpak or even snap.
Version 4.8.0 and the same problem still persists, does anyone found a workaround?
OS: Fedora 39 Flatpak: 1.15.6 Webcord: 4.7.0
Since updating to 4.7.0, Webcord crashes on startup. I have attempted a reinstall, including purging the folder in .var, but still just crashes.
