Atom won't open path on command line

[trinaryouroboros]

I was formerly using Fedora 32 and an older version of atom, and when running in konsole terminal:

atom ./

It would open atom to the local path and show all files/folders in it.

I upgraded to Fedora 35 recently and am using the latest atom, and this doesn't work anymore.

It just opens to a blank atom with "Add Folders" on the left.

I tried wiping ~/.atom but it had no effect.

Does running atom only launch the editor?

[trinaryouroboros]

Yes, and it only shows whatever path was opened last, not the current directory.

[jnuernberg]

Can you try launching it with atom . instead of atom ./?

Strange it's not working at all now, maybe something unique to my OS, I'm ending up using vscode so this is no rush anymore.

Experiencing a similar issue on Windows 11 Home using Git Bash as my command line.

atom . only opens up a new window where the Project folder is where atom is installed (C:\Users\marct\AppData\Local\atom\app-1.60.0).

atom opens up the last open Project folder.

A workaround I've done to open up atom with respect to my command line's current directory is atom $(pwd), which presumably works with any bash CLI, but I'm not sure how to make atom . work again. It used to, and I'm not sure what I did to change that behavior.
