https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/issues/2163#issuecomment-1087645677electron 18 seems to be giving issues to FreeTube and making it impossible to open it, as per suggestion of the dev this package should switch to only using the supported electron version (16)hedgepigdaniel commented on 2022-03-29 13:24 (UTC)
@pikohan I resolved the issues by changing flags related to ozone/wayland (not sure that there was an issue in freetube in particular).
The latest release of electron is now 17, and that does not work for me (with my flags related to ozone/wayland) - but the officially supported electron16 does.
You can see freetube-wayland package for an example of fixing the electron version. It's a simple matter of replacing "electron" in the dependency and launch script with "electron16".

@hedgepigdaniel So far I've been letting it go with electron's latest version, but there has been widespread problems with a major update of electron breaking freetube and I might go with your suggestion. However, if you and DarknessKiller both can't use it with the officially supported electron 16, something is off. Can you use the freetube binary from the website? If not, what errors does it give you? These might be good things to report upstream.

In case it isn't clear: I also can't open the app with Electron 16.

@pikohan could you change the dependency (and binary in freetube.sh) to electron16 rather than electron?
Generally apps are not compatible with different major versions of Electron, because that's when breaking changes are made in Electron. You can check the version of electron that Freetube is tested with by looking at the dependency in package.json. For example in this version 0.16.0 its 16 (not later version when they are released): https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/blob/3ec646870963f6a27cbfa6d49fe12ea3b659c6a4/package.json#L111
It might work sometimes with a different version but really it's on Freetube to test/update to the latest Electron.
EDIT: I was wrong to say the latest requires electron15 - its actually electron16. But still good to make that change so that when electron17 is released in Arch it doesn't break.

After the electron update I can't open the app. It was solved rebuilding the app using electron15 and replacing it in the pkgbuild.

@DarknessKiller What problems are you having that could be because of electron 16?
yochananmarqos commented on 2021-11-24 21:08 (UTC)
@DarknessKiller: It works fine for me.
