All three linux apps (plexamp, plex desktop and plex htpc) hard default to XWayland and crash when attempting to launch with wayland enabled. I have the most recent versions installed from flathub. Any update on the progress, the last post i found related to wayland support was several months old. Thank you ---

Some info regarding Linux desktop player: > [@Linux Desktop (snap) won't start](https://forums.plex.tv/t/linux-desktop-snap-wont-start/794336/9): > > This is unfortunately expected on Wayland. The next major version of Qt should make things better but we are currently blocked from using it due to a build bug on one of the platforms. Hopefully soon we can upgrade Qt and thus resolve this issue. ---
