Weird, I wonder why more people aren't seeing this. I guess something must not be quite right with the electron<-->chrome versions translation though.

I saw this too.

Same popup came to me.

This looks like it should have already been fixed by #1719.
NixOS also seems to have fixed it by increasing the default electron version.
And I feel like this should have been fixed on Archlinux already as well, see the issue and the commit.

Is there some older Electron version leaking into the build? What are the Electron / Chrome versions you see in your build of element-desktop? (Quickest way to check I found was to open the network debugging tab and look at the User-Agent header of a random request)

We're currently on chrome 128 (iirc) and the electron app (That showed "Element does not support this browser") has the user agent of chrome 126.

arch linux - fully up to date as of now
