I also have this problem.
OS: Fedora 38
Cinny: 3.2.1
Downloaded from Github

Edit: version number

[kfiven]

Latest is 3.2.0 / 3.2.1 , have you checked with that?

[adevries17]

@kfiven Yes, just downloaded it. I was looking at what luckycold put as version and typed instead of the correct version number number I downloaded. I have downloaded 3.2.1 and it's a blank white screen

[adevries17]

I just built v3.2.1 on my machine and it works as expected. The flatpak of v3.2.1 also works for me. Maybe something in the prebuilt AppImage version is messed up?

[kfiven]

Only thing I could think of having such effect is the Ubuntu 20.04 and I can try bumping that to see if it solves the issue.

I also have this issue on a Mac:

OS: macOS 12.6.2
Cinny: 3.2.1, 3.2.0, or 3.1.0 (I tried all 3) Mac desktop app. Older versions might be affected too, I stopped trying at 3.1.0
Matrix Homeserver: Irrelevant, as I can't log into anything due to blank screen.
Downloaded from GitHub

Viewing the dev console shows a "SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: invalid group specifier name" error.

I ran from the terminal and it claims that gstreamer element appsink not installed. Not sure if that helps any

[osousa]

I'm having the same issue, with "sudo dpkg -i .*.deb"

[ndpm13]

same issue here blank white screen on both Void Linux and Peppermint

Seems like this problem popped up for me as well. I created another issue, as I am not using the AppImage, and also it now being 4.1.0. #329

Adding on for v4.2.0

Describe the bug

Running the v4.2.0 appimage results in only a blank page appearing.

Reproduction

1. Download v4.2.0 appimage
2. Run the appimage
3. Blank page appears as opposed to a login

Expected behavior

Show login screen

Platform and versions

1. OS: Manjaro
2. Cinny version: 4.2.0
3. Matrix homeserver: matrix.org
4. Downloaded from: GitHub

Additional context

Running from the cli produces this:

Gtk-Message: 15:35:47.259: Failed to load module "xapp-gtk3-module"
Gtk-Message: 15:35:47.579: Failed to load module "xapp-gtk3-module"

Same here for AppImage 4.2.1. No output in terminal, but the dev-tools give:

[Error] Unhandled Promise Rejection: SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: invalid group specifier name
	RegExp (index-Nx5qNgae.js:27:4371)
	(anonymous function) (index-Nx5qNgae.js:27:4371)
	Module Code (index-Nx5qNgae.js:111:13543)
	evaluate
	moduleEvaluation

Looks like it's trying to parse a matrix.to component that no longer aligns with the RegEx.
