Hey @blaqshyd, perhaps you missed the Linux-specific installation instructions that require AppImageLauncher?

Please follow the instructions below to install HTTPie for Desktop on Linux. ⚠️ The Linux package uses AppImage, and you need to install it using AppImageLauncher for the app to work:

  1. Install AppImageLauncher (instructions)
  2. Download HTTPie-*.AppImage (or HTTPie-*arm64.AppImage for ARM64 architecture) from the latest release page
  3. Run $ AppImageLauncher HTTPie-*.AppImage

Ohhh yes, I guess that was why. I tried installing the AppImageLauncher but couldn't get it to work so I moved on to install the AppImage in the terminal. I went through the process again just now and it works. Login with Github works now. Thanks
