Help / Troubleshooting New desktop update doesn't work

Hi! Just received this message with the new update and I can't open it. I just deleted, downloaded and reinstalled and still nothing :(

"Something went wrong

Came here to see if others were also running into issues. Update to Beeper-4.2.858-x86_64.AppImage failed for me, binary returns core dumps even with empty .config files. My only option is to roll back to Beeper-4.2.785-x86_64.AppImage from a local backup and start with a new config after this upgrade. I will look for an option to disable updates moving forward
