Installation on Ubuntu not working

See original GitHub issue

When trying to run the AppImage which is the default download for linux on the webpage I get:

./Gitify-3.0.4.AppImage 
(electron) The default value of app.allowRendererProcessReuse is deprecated, it is currently "false".  It will change to be "true" in Electron 9.  For more information please check https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/18397
Checking for update
Update for version 3.0.4 is not available (latest version: 3.0.4, downgrade is disallowed).
checkForUpdatesAndNotify called, downloadPromise is null

and it just hangs there not doing anything.

If I install through the deb package from releases it looks like it is installed (it is shown in Ubuntu Software installed list) but running the app does nothing.

I’m using Manjaro XFCE and I have the same issue. Gitify appears to start properly but does not show up in systray so I can’t interact with it.

Just confirmed that 3.1.0 works for me as well (Manjaro with XFCE systray). The window appears at the top of the screen rather than the bottom (where the systray is), but that’s just a minor annoyance.
