Description
React Native Debugger app version: 0.11.7
React Native version: 0.63.4
Platform: android
Is real device of platform: no
Operating System: Linux, Ubuntu 18.04
Hello, I am pretty sure this is not a bug, but I can't find a solution for hours. The documentation also provides minimal information on getting started.
I have followed the instructions and seems everything should work.
But this is all I can see on my desktop. It shows that debugger is connected, but console.log-s are not shown and the redux state is also undefined.

I have also enabled `Debug` in of developer menu on my app emulator.
I couldn't find a solution to this problem anywhere, so the final destination of resolving it is here.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with RNDebugger 0.11.7, React Native 0.63.4, an Android emulator, and Ubuntu 18.04, with Debug enabled in the app's developer menu. Done means the debugger displays console.log output and the Redux state instead of showing an undefined state.
