Problem with file browser on Linux
- Operating System:
- [ ] Windows
- [x] Linux/Ubuntu
- [ ] macOS
- Clear steps to reproduce the issue: When trying to attach a file, or save one from a message, the file browser does look like this
- Relevant error messages and/or screenshots:

I am using zulip5.0.0 installed from snap on Debian Sid with Xfce4 version 4.14.3-1.
Damn, this looks bad. @adhalanay is this frequent?
@akashnimare Always. When I start from a terminal I got these messages (those from node repeated several times):
(node:83275) Electron: Loading non-context-aware native module in renderer: '/snap/zulip/27/resources/app.asar.unpacked/node_modules/@felixrieseberg/spellchecker/build/Release/spellchecker.node'. This is deprecated, see https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/18397.
Gtk-Message: 18:44:25.437: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
(node:83049) DeprecationWarning: Passing functions, DOM objects and other non-cloneable JavaScript objects to IPC methods is deprecated and will throw an exception beginning with Electron 9
If zulip is installed via apt the bug is no longer present. Also the GTk-Message is gone. So the problem seems to affect only the snap version.
@adhalanay can you repro this on the latest version which is v5.2.0?

Sorry, the problem is still there.

@adhalanay can you reproduce this in the v5.3.0?
Yes. Same thing.
@manavmehta can you open an upstream issue? I'm sure there is not much we can do here.
Similar upstream issue 12423, pointed out by @akashnimare cc @adhalanay
Reproducible with 5.4.0 on arch using snap package, the tray icon context menu is affected additionally to the file browser.
Reproducible on 5.4.3 on arch using snap package.
We get some problem in our APP. https://github.com/emqx/MQTTX/issues/506
This affects the version installed via apt as well (5.7.0 amd64 on Ubuntu 21.04)
