This is the place where I get the package from: https://github.com/pkgforge-dev/citron-appimage

I was going to try the official package as well but the mirror is so slow;

So, Citron won't start at all? Can you try running this command and trying again?

sed -i 's#theme=colorful#theme=default#g' $HOME/.config/citron/qt-config.ini

For some reason, on Arch-based distributions (including Steam Deck's OS), citron with the standard (colorful) theme started crashing with a segfault.

Should I close this issue or wait for it to be fixed upstream?

@Twig6943, I think it's worth keeping it open, it's obviously a citron bug.

I can confirm this is still present as of 0.11.0. I was wondering why changing to a different version, either via manually downloading a new appimage or via the updater caused citron to not launch. Changing the theme to dark-colorful and then launching the new version solved the problem. Thanks @lufog . I'm on CachyOS which is Arch based, so that would make sense.
