On linux, whether it is a native package or flatpak. I have to launch it twice for it to open.

Could it be yours is set to start in the tray?

Nope, its basically the same issue that the flatpak is happening, but I'm not using the flatpak. https://github.com/flathub/org.signal.Signal/issues/454

For me the january 13th solution seems to work, but I was doing that to begin with so I never noticed the issue. Signal flatpak, openSUSE Tumbleweed and KDE Plasma 6. Signal is started with --use-tray-icon --start-in-tray

Glad that it works for you. I may have to switch over to the flatpak then.
