I have set up my Streamdeck XL, and I generally love it a lot. Thanks for writing this software.

When programs exit, the hang around in defunct mode. How do I get around this?

5492 tty2 Sl+ 0:03 _ /usr/bin/python /home/thomas.cameron/.local/bin/streamdeck -n 9448 tty2 Z+ 0:00 | _ [gedit]

My understanding is that if the parent process doesn't end something correctly, it leaves it as defunct. Is this a Python issue, or a streamdeck-ui issue?

I'm running Fedora 38, up to date as of today. I installed using the instructions for Fedora.

The weird thing is, for SOME apps, it blocks launching another instance. For others, it's not a big deal and another process can be spawned.
