It seems that the client wants to access my screen content, since everytime I start it a Plasma window asking what to share with org.chromium.Chromium appears. Is this intended behavior? How to turn it off?

Apparently the upgrade broke the data, clearing the config and logging back in worked. :| :\
or not...
Might need to reboot my laptop from all the updates. I will check back in later.
Yeah, I don't know and I don't have time to debug this right now. It's crashing with the error below even after a restart on both versions of the app, 4.10.0 and the latest of 4.11.0.

I was just reading that now and it's broken... I get:
Application Error The application GUI just crashed.
Anyhoo, back to 4.10.0 for now.

Upstream apparently fixed this issue with version 4.11.0.

it is an upstream issue affecting all distribution methods when used on wayland: https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Electron/issues/3161
the clients from this PR work but they don't fix screen sharing and are not official releases: https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat.Electron/pull/3162

snack, dasunsrule32: How about rocketchat-desktop, does that work? (See pinned comment.) I don't use KDE nor Plasma, so I cannot test it myself.

@snack thanks for posting this. I'm seeing the exact issue on KDE 6.5.4. Rolling back to 4.10.0-1 resolves the issue.

Upgrading to 4.10.1-1 breaks the package: the client is started and shown in the Plasma taskbar, but no window is displayed. Reverting back to 4.10.0-1 fixes the problem. I'm on Plasma under Wayland session.

This package just repackages the binary tarball from upstream. There is also rocketchat-desktop in AUR, which builds from source and should be preferred, if possible.

tperami: good idea – done.
