I have the same issue and it's yet to be fixed

@d4f5409d how did you fix your issue??

Are the maintainers of this project still alive ??

Is this project officially dead??

[KeeJef]

I haven't seen this issue personally, but we will look into it, no the maintainers are not dead

Is this a new account? do you know roughly how old the previous version was before updating?

Not old at all. It was the previous v. No, it's not a new account.

[KeeJef]

Try uninstalling and reinstalling, this is likely caused by a database migration from a very old version of Session to a newer version of Session which can cause unexpected issues.

Closing this one for now
