I also have this issue on my Arch Linux system.

I run Manjaro and have crashing issues on one of my systems. I just had to add the flag --no-sandbox to the startup command to resolve my issue. I'm not sure if this will be your solution though since I get slightly different behaviour.

It seems like this may be an issue with SUID sandboxing support detection, but I'd have to dig into the differences between my systems to determine that.

Hey, no worries about being a noob. I barely started daily-driving Linux a year ago.

At least for Manjaro XFCE:

To test if this flag does resolve your issue, open a terminal and enter ~/.itch/itch --no-sandbox. This is assuming that you installed itch as your current user.

If Itch does start properly, then continue to the next steps, otherwise, this is not the issue/whole issue. You may also need to check the command against what is currently entered in the "Command:" field by following through to step 3 below. If they differ, replace ~/.itch/itch with what you have and add --no-sandbox to the end and try to run it from terminal again. if there is %U at the end, you can just ignore that and remove it from your command in the terminal.

  1. From the application menu [Start menu, Whisker menu], search or find itch.io
  2. Right-click, and selected "Edit Application"
  3. Under "Command:" enter ~/.itch/itch --no-sandbox. If the field has %U at the end, then enter ~/.itch/itch --no-sandbox %U
  4. Hit save and try to run the program to make sure that it's working.

If you're on Windows, I can't help sadly.

Coming back to say that this issue was solved for me by using the canary build downloaded from the AUR on vanilla arch.

I installed manually using itch_setup.sh

Just for reference to my prior post.
