@timothycarambat commented on GitHub (Mar 5, 2026):

This is known because of how displaySources does not work on Linux and crashes the whole app. @angelplusultra has some code that we may merge in future to patch this, but given the scattering of how UI's work on linux it may be spotty.

We also didnt want to force users to install a bunch of packages to get it to work since the solutions all seemed to be requiring the end user to have some pkgs on machine to have everything work. This impacted Wayland/KDE & Ubuntu specifically
