Description
I built and ran multiple versions (`run dev`) of the simplenote electron apps but I encountered the same issue: simplenote wont let me login with status code 401. The devtool shows `POST https://auth.simperium.com/1/history-analyst-dad/authorize/ 401`
#### App versions that DOES not work
- 2.9.0 (self-built)
- 2.9.0 [official linux built ](https://github.com/Automattic/simplenote-electron/releases/download/v2.9.0/Simplenote-linux-2.9.0-x64.tar.gz))
- 1.12.1 (self-built)
- web app hosting on 4000
#### App versions that work:
- 2.9.0 (official windows built)
- app.simplenote.com
I find there were a few issues related to the login issue, however, it seems that all of them are properly addressed and the issues were closed.
Could you help check what went wrong? Thanks.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure with `run dev` on Ubuntu 18.04 and inspect the `POST https://auth.simperium.com/1/history-analyst-dad/authorize/` request in the devtools. Compare the failing Linux and web development apps with the working Windows build and app.simplenote.com; done means development login no longer returns status 401.
