Description
Clear and concise description of the problem
I like using Folo as a notifier for the releases of repos I am following on github. And I don't want the window to startup everytime I login.
Suggested solution
I would love for Folo to startup with the system minimized to tray, this way I can have it out of mind, and only get notified the moment a repo publishes a new release. Out of sight out of mind, until a release is published.
Thank you very much!

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by locating Folo's desktop startup, system-login, and tray entry points, then verify how the app currently opens on login. Done means the app launches at login without showing its main window and remains available through the system tray.
