LBRY app tries to minimize to tray even when told not to, keeps launching new instances when opened, extreme ram usage.


I'm running Fedora SB 32 with Gnome, and as you'd expect, there's no system tray. I actually really like a clean vanilla Gnome environment so I have no extensions. I saw in LBRY settings that there's an option to disable "minimize to tray" so I went ahead and did that. I've used the desktop app for a few days, I have no idea how many times I've opened and closed it today, but I'm just now noticing how much memory my system is sitting at. It's nuts, there are soooo many lbry-app processes. At the time I discovered this my system was at about 6GB of RAM used, I looked and saw the minimize option had enabled itself again. I got a little curious and started opening and closing the app until earlyoom started to kick in, you can see the madness in the screenshots that it caused. There's about a 50% chance that the minimize option will enabled itself, though, no matter what it shows it always tries to minimize on close every time. So does anyone know of a workaround, or even better, a proper fix for this?; aside from dirtying Gnome with extensions.
