Preflight Checklist

Problem Description

It can be quite jarring for a less experienced user to see a menu you may be less familiar with. But, it's also just a bit ugly, and doesn't integrate with the system.

Proposed Solution

Ferdium could supply the correct file picker when using KDE, Gnome, and others.

Alternatives Considered

n/a

Additional Information

Looks like this was merged for electron 14 itself: electron/electron#19159 - could you please raise a bug in electron if its not working for your OS flavor?

For me this already works well on Ubuntu with snap package:

And for native Linux packages maybe it needs the manual creation of symlink (and restarting Ferdium):

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-3.so.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtk-3.so
