Downloading image freezes whole system

WHAT IS THE BUG

Trying to download an image, when the Save File shows up the, my whole Gnome session freezes. Only changing to another tty and killing Anytype helped.

HOW TO REPRODUCE IT

  1. Go to an image object
  2. Open as object
  3. Try to download

THE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

Not freezing the app nor the system.

SYSTEM INFORMATIONS

  • OS:
    Linux
  • Anytype Version:
    0.29.0

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT

Most likely a Linux only bug. But I can produce this on two different systems.

This issue has been added to our issue tracker and was received by the Development Team.

Does it still work this way?

Hey @Razor
Just tried downloading a GIF and a PNG.
It’s not freezing my whole Gnome session, but the file dialog and the Anytype window is frozen.

I see, Electron will be updated in the release after next to 0.25.0 or next stable version, so please check after that one more time.
