I did. sadly, it still does not work.

Here are two screen shots from my snap build (bad) and dennisameling build (good):

I have never built a snap before. Maybe I made a mistake?

Here is what I did:

Hmm, that looks right. I'll have a poke about and check the patch was applied properly

[jnsgruk]

@CarstenKochElsdorf I just updated this slightly, I don't think the patch was applied properly. Can you try a pull and rebuild?

cd <your clone>
git pull
snapcraft --verbose

sudo snap remove signal-desktop
sudo snap install ./signal-desktop_7.25.0_amd64 --dangerous

[CarstenKochElsdorf]

Working now.
Thank you!

[jnsgruk]

Nice, should land in latest/stable some time today.
