In my case it's a wayland problem (Xwayland work), just you must update electron to fix a bug in electron regarding starting with ozone=wayland.

Signal had the same problem, so updating electron in their end have fixed it.

Also cant use freetube on wayland Fedora Flatpak. Just get a black screen. With latest version. Disabling wayland in Flatseal doesn't help.

Same problem for me on Fedora 36 using Wayland on a gtx 1060. Black screen on launch. Xorg is working fine.

Working on latest nightly build. https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/pull/2448 updated electron and now freetube --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland launches freetube under wayland without issue.
