[Ubuntu 20.04] No text or icons displayed when clicking the icon

[brianrobt]

I love this plugin and have used it on Mac and Windows, and now Ubuntu. It's very functional on all the OSes. The only problem that I have with my Ubuntu installation from the AppImage file is that there is no text displayed when I clicked the Gitify icon on my taskbar.

Bug on 4.2.1

When the blank dialog is hovered in the middle, the background changes, which indicates that there is text there but it's just white or invisible. This occurs on all Appearance settings--"System", "Light", and "Dark.

When the invisible text is clicked, I am brought to the expected window and the plugin works as expected. It's completely functional but just looks like some text color needs to be changed.

The same here with Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS.

I have the same issue in KDE:

Have the same issue, but wanted to add that even if the text showed up, why is the extra click needed? The list of notifications disappears every time I click on any of them, so every time it's click icon -> click empty space -> see the notification list -> click next one -> loop around. That can't be intended, right?

this is a know electron issue i think electron/electron#14941

The issue mentioned seem to have been fixed. Maybe time to do a electron update?

This project hasn't been updated since 2021. If I get time I will fork it and fix this issue myself.

[farfromrefug]

@brianrobt i have a working fork using tauri. I can push it someday

[brianrobt]

@farfromrefug I suppose. At this point in time I think it'd be better just to fork it as its own repo completely and remove this one as the upstream. The owner of this repo has been MIA for over a year now...

[farfromrefug]

@brianrobt sure we can maintain it from my fork, i dont mind. Just need to push it

[brianrobt]

@farfromrefug that would be awesome. I've spent a couple hours trying to get it fixed but can't even get the .AppImage or .deb package to run properly. It looks like it's getting stuck in an infinite loop in the main function. Anyway, please let me know when you have it pushed.

[farfromrefug]

@brianrobt yes tauri will fix it all. Plus the app will be around 4mb :)

Tauri would indeed be a major upgrade to this repo. Although it would probably be a ton of work to replicate the whole functionality.
