Research direction

Start by reproducing the missing or incomplete UI on Fedora 44 Silverblue with the Flathub Flatpak and AppImage, comparing desktop client 34.0.1 with 33.0.7. Use the screenshot and missing General settings button as the failure criteria; done means the app opens with the complete UI as it did before the update.
