Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/8063

Bug Description

When I try to open AppFlowy for Linux (via .deb or .AppImage file), you see a very short flash of a window opening, but it crashes directly after that.

How to Reproduce

Try to open AppFlowy on Linux via .deb or .AppImage file.

Expected Behavior

The app opening like normal.

Operating System

Linux (Ubuntu 25.04)

AppFlowy Version(s)

0.9.3

Screenshots

No response

Additional Context

Output of the terminal (afy.AppImage is the AppFlowy file):

myusername@mypc:~/Downloads$ ./afy.AppImage

(AppFlowy:9231): Gtk-WARNING **: 07:47:59.224: Could not load a pixbuf from icon theme.
This may indicate that pixbuf loaders or the mime database could not be found.
Gdk-Message: 07:48:00.305: Error 71 (Protocol error) dispatching to Wayland display.

For me, something similar happens.
Starting the app works, but when I go into settings from the initial screen, it crashes. Starting into anonymous mode as well as opening settings from within there works.

Last error message is Segmentation fault (core dumped)
And before there was (AppFlowy:79728): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 23:39:48.655: gdk_device_get_source: assertion 'GDK_IS_DEVICE (device)' failed for a couple of times.

Same here.

I'm working on a new fresh installation on a new laptop (I didn't have any issues on my previous installation, but I also hadn't updated it in a few weeks).

Testing on Arch Linux + Sway. The crashes occur both with the Flatpak version and with the appflowy-bin AUR package.

In my specific case it happens as soon as the application starts, when I click on Settings.

strace doesn't give anything meaningful at the time the application crashes:

read(3, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8)          = 8
timerfd_settime(19, TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME, {it_interval={tv_sec=41786, tv_nsec=523886786}, it_value={tv_sec=41786, tv_nsec=523886786}}, NULL) = 0
sendmsg(7, {msg_name=NULL, msg_namelen=0, msg_iov=[{iov_base="\0\0\0\377\0\0,\0#\22\0\0\31\0\0\0text/plain;chars"..., iov_len=44}], msg_iovlen=1, msg_controllen=0, msg_flags=0}, MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_NOSIGNAL) = 44
ppoll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN}], 3, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, NULL, 8) = 0 (Timeout)
ppoll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=7, events=POLLIN}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN}], 3, {tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=311855000}, NULL, 8 <unfinished ...>) = ?
+++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++

I've also tried to downgrade the Flatpak image to earlier versions (up to commit eda817eefbb33eab5ce781f7fb3a94fb86bafb77ee232c42b8ae0409affbce2f) to check if it's a regression introduced somewhere, but at least on this new installation also earlier versions fail the same way.

Could someone please look into this? It replicates even on a vanilla AppFlowy Flatpak installation on Arch.

@linux4life798 commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2025):

Issue still exist with version 0.9.4 and 0.9.5 deb packages on Debian 13/trixie, which makes the AppFlowy desktop app unusable. I receive a Segmentation Fault right after the GUI window launches. Rolling back, even to version 0.9.2, does not resolve the issue.

@linux4life798 commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2025): Issue still exist with version `0.9.4` and `0.9.5` deb packages on Debian 13/trixie, which makes the AppFlowy desktop app unusable. I receive a Segmentation Fault right after the GUI window launches. Rolling back, even to version 0.9.2, does not resolve the issue.

WORKAROUND

I'm not sure what caused the original issue, but I was able to get the desktop client working again by just clearing the local state and re-authenticating.

# Delete ~/.local/share/io.appflowy.appflowy
gio trash ~/.local/share/io.appflowy.appflowy
# or use rm -rf 

# Launch and re-authenticate

@blacklight commented on GitHub (Aug 10, 2025):

Sorry but the workaround doesn't work in my case.

The crash consistently reproduces both with:

A fresh Flatpak installation (after wiping the previous Flatpak folder)
appflowy-bin installed via AUR (after wiping ~/.local/share/AppFlowy)

However, the fact that such a serious and easily reproducible issue skipped all the levels of QA, made it into an official release, and then users were left with a broken application for weeks/months without an official response from the maintainers, makes me believe that this product is awfully immature to store my data. I'll go for alternatives.
