@slabz Yes, you're right. But unfortunately, this issue is hard to fix, because the original Slack(or slack-desktop) package has its own Electron package and the use of obfuscation hides the login-related code. However, the copy-and-paste-link method should work. Maybe you need to remain the window opening, and copy the link, then paste it into the field.

I haven't had luck with this package. The problem is it won't see the slack://... link that xdg-open sends to it so I can't login. The xdg-open opens a new copy of slack and that just asks you to sign in again. I tried the copying the link and opening/focusing slack with the link on my clipboard but that doesn't work it. It sees it because you can see slack restart in the logs and it clears my clipboard, but it doesn't log me in.

I went back to using the slack-desktop package, and that works.
