Just switched from Windows 11 Pro to Fedora 44 Workstation. Pass, Mail, and VPN are running fine (though the VPN UI is a bit ugly).
The problem is Proton Auth. It opens for like 0.1 seconds, shows a white window, and then immediately closes.
I installed it via the RPM from the official site and followed the dnf instructions. I found a support article suggesting it's a GPU acceleration bug. Running it from the terminal with the WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 proton-authenticator fixes it, but the fix isn't permanent. As soon as I close and reopen the app normally, it crashes again.
Has anyone managed to disable GPU acceleration permanently for Proton Auth on Fedora? Or is there a config file I need to edit so I don't have to launch it via terminal every time? Like I said I‘m new to Linux so sorry if its obvious.

Thanks
