Hi, thank you for filing this issue. I can't replicate this bug on my setup (Kubuntu 22.04 with KDE 5.24.4). Could you please try to launch the app with the command flatpak run io.github.ferraridamiano.ConverterNOW and paste here the output? Thank you!

OK, let's try to get rid of some of the culprits. Could you try to download converternow-linux.tar.gz, extract it and execute it from the terminal. Then, tell me if the issue persists, and eventually past here the output of the terminal. Thank you!

Stops at this point

Could you try deleting the Converter NOW folder that you can find in ~/.local/share/? Then try again both the flatpak version and the app from the archive. Tell me if it works

[imLinguin]

Now flatpak version hangs in the same spot as archive one, still without window decorations.

[ferraridamiano]

Does it work with X11?

Could you trying installing this app? It is an app built with the same framework (flutter) as Converter NOW. I need to be sure that it is not a flutter issue.

[imLinguin]

ConverterNOW works with X11

Spotube works fine on both Wayland and X11

[ferraridamiano]

Could you try updating to the latest flatpak version of the app? Otherwise I have no idea

[imLinguin]

Same issue on latest

[ferraridamiano]

I really can't underestand what the problem is, it seems an issue from the app side (because spotube does not have the same issue), but it is strange that it has also graphical glitches (that seems more like a flutter issue). Without being able to reproduce it I will leave this issue open. Let's see if other users experiences similar problems. I'm sorry and thank you!
