Linux Desktop Doesn't Work
Rather, it doesn't work very well.

Additional context
I will begin adapting the app for Linux desktops, working on Ubuntu, and then publish to snapcraft.

Great! Thanks @kashaiahyah85 !
The one that worries me a bit regarding Linux support is that we are not able to run the tests on Ubuntu. I have opened #283 for that, and even started to debug it (it may be related to jest/jest for eletron), but unfortunately I didn't had the time to move forward.

The tests now run correctly on ubuntu latest, giving more confidence in our support :)

This is an incredibly edge case, but if you have installed npm using the snap (snap install npm) then it will fail on testing, and open a billion windows (11 actually). You can work around this by running npm scripts with --scripts-prepend-node-path.
I'm wondering if this could shed some light on other issues related to spawning unwanted instances during Windows and Linux development, generally only in testing as far as I've seen.

I installed the last release on Ubuntu (through WSL) and it works fine. It's not as pretty, but I think that does it for now.

Additionally, our ubuntu tests have been running alright for a while
