AppFlowy doesn't launch on Arch Linux. Using the launcher just creates a black window which closes in a second. Launching from the command line reports errors ending with a segmentation fault.

@lokesh-krishna I just found something that might be related. Can you try to install network-manager?

sudo apt-get install network-manager
