A new release of Flare, a #linux and #mobilelinux app to chat with your friends on Signal, has just dropped!
Version 0.9.2 includes a hotfix for linking being broken, and additionally, an updated description and namespace.
You can find more details on the releases page: https://gitlab.com/schmiddi-on-mobile/flare/-/releases/0.9.2, and download this update from Flathub, or Flare's AUR packages!
Will need to try this one soon!

@devrtz Thank you for looking into our app!
You are correct; Flare must be linked to a primary Signal device (support for using it as a primary device is planned).
So if you want to use just a Linux phone, then you'll need to link Flare to signal-cli.
Hope that helps!
Good to know that there are options!
@purism @devrtz @jsparber We would love to see it on there!
