Also seeing this on MacOS with Gmail Desktop v 3.0.0-alpha.37 (dev)

FYI, if you set your User Agent using Settings > User Agent > Set Custom User Agent, it does make the banner go away. I just grabbed my current Chrome User Agent and pasted that in the config and that did the trick.

I'm really sorry I'm neglecting this project. This seems like a critical message, as the current Electron version in Gmail Desktop is quite outdated and not supported by Gmail anymore. Jumping back on this project and upgrading to the latest Electron version comes with a lot of breaking changes, which wasn't a straightforward task last time I tried (around last year). There's also few things I would like to do differently since the initial work on v3. This leaves me with the wish wanting to rewrite the project again, but I just can't find the motivation. On the other side I'm glad that this project keeps gaining new users, so thank you, but sorry I'm letting you guys down. If there's anything, there's maybe a time I'll jump back on this project and make it the Gmail Desktop app I've always envisioned.

eriktdesign - 1) How do you "grab my current Chrome User Agent"? 2) Does this just fool gmail, is it a true fix? Sorry, I'm not that techie.

I can see that the project uses electron: ^12.0.0, and the current version is: v33.0.0 that's too much ahead.

Thank you Tim for doing this project - been using it for years and it's the best one I've found! I would buy you a coffee!!

I got the latest User Agent List from https://www.whatismybrowser.com/guides/the-latest-user-agent/edge#google_vignette and pasted it in the Custom User Agent section in the config.json file and the error went away

Update Error seems to be coming and going now

I entered "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/130.0.0.0 Safari/537.36" as custom agent for macOS. It didn't help. Messages still appears. My Chrome version is Version 130.0.6723.59 (Official Build) (x86_64). After updating today to that version the message appeared. Screenshot 2024-10-16 at 21 42 33

Just want to agree... Maybe not using if for years, but spent that much looking for an app that does exactly this. So. THANK YOU.

As a long time user, I really do hope you find a way to bring the electron backend up to date.

As a person, I feel you on the inability to move it forward because of so many variables (some quite literally lol).

Thanks for all you've done, and here's to hoping you do get a chance to work on this to be the app you've always wanted it to be.
