Linux desktop client crashes on startup
Since updating to the latest version of the client, the Linux desktop client consistently crashes on first startup, and sometimes crashes again after already running.

Hello folks,
I'm sorry that 1Password for Linux is crashing when you first first boot your device. This is a known issue that our development team is investigating and hopes to fix in a future update to 1Password. While I don't have a timeline on when a fix will be released, the fix will be noted in our release notes as soon as it is available.
As noted in this thread, the issue should only affect the first launch after boot and subsequent launches of the 1Password app should work normally. If you're seeing different behaviour then please reach out to support@1Password.com so that we can dig deeper.

Here’s what fixed the “crash/slow first launch, then fine after” issue for me on Ubuntu Asahi (ARM64). Maybe it helps others hitting the same thing.
First launch after a reboot hangs ~30s or “crashes,” then later launches are instant.
Logs show lines like:
GLib-GObject … has no handler with id …
sending crash reports (then a long pause)After it finally starts, DB integrity checks succeed and the app is snappy until next reboot.
The crash reporter was blocking startup on the first run after boot. Disabling it removed the delay.
Quick test (no install changes)
Run 1Password once like this:
/opt/1Password/1password --disable-crash-reports1Password doesn’t provide a Flatpak build for ARM64, and I haven’t seen this issue on my other machine running AMD64.
This helped me too, thank you so much!
