WHAT IS THE BUG
When I open Anytype, my Dashboard page is entirely invisible. If I resize the window, sometimes a handful of emojis appear.

If I try to open the Dev tools, the contents of the right-hand panel that appears are also invisible:

When I go to Anytype > About Anytype to check the version number, that dialog is also invisible:

HOW TO REPRODUCE IT
Open the Anytype Linux AppImage app on Fedora 39

THE EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
My Dashboard page and all other app pages render correctly

ADDITIONAL CONTEXT
This started appearing suddenly about 2 days ago. Restarting the app doesn’t help, nor does restarting my computer. My system is up-to-date with all software updates.

From Telegram chat:
There is GPUCache folder in /home/USERNAME/.config/anytype/
Deleting this GPUCache should help. Let me know if that worked.

This worked! After deleting the GPUCache folder, the app is working again as normal. Thank you so much!

The trigger was opening first item from ANY Experience Gallery, after which UI was frozen with no UI option to open any space or go back

Instructions to delete ~/.config/anytype/GPUCache made it work again @Razor

Unfortunately this is some Fedora update that is causing this state.

Seems like another Fedora user is experiencing this issue with other Electron apps:

I cross-posted your solution there

Aye, wretched Slack was borked up for me, too. Wish I’d found this thread before I only went and reinstalled my graphics drivers :weary:
