When I try to log into a workspace, I get an infinite loop of the app opening a tab and the tab opening a new instance of the app lol.

@lmartinex-mirror, electron apps have a tendency to run in xwayland. To run them natively in wayland, use the args --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland. Try it with these args and see if you get the blank screen.

It worked for me under Wayland, sway. If it works better for other people under electron17, you can revert it.

I think it should be reverted to electron17 then let's find out will it works with electron18

@lmartinez-mirror, latest version on AUR, 4.25.1-1. doesn't work with electron18 for me, :( Just a blank screen. I used electron17 back with it (by changing slack.sh, so it uses 17 instead of 18), and it does work, so the change to electron17 seems required.

Sure great, but update still won't work for me and only shows black screen. I'm using wayland with sway right now. I'll look for the problem later soon.

Confirmed that Slack launches with electron18. I think we should pin it to a specific version so that electron updates don't constantly break this package. We'll bump the electron package version once we can confirm it works.

4.25.1 now available

Thank you for adding me. I'll apply a172's patch as my first contribution.

If you use this package more often than I do, by all means!
