If someone is having issues with <100% scaling, you can use this patch to fix this temporarily (feishin ignores electron cmd arguments)

Confirmed that it is fixed by adding libxcrypt-compat to makedepends

No problem. If I remember when I get back home today I'll add it.

PKGBUILD (feishin) W: VCS source PKGBUILD needs additional makedepends 'git' to work properly

Copypasted from vscodium package, because package isn't building with latest version of nodejs. Installing nodejs-lts-iron also works.

The current version of npm 10.9.0 fails to build the project. Version 10.8.3 works fine. This is the error:
