Not verified by, affiliated with, or supported by the Zotero project. Please confirm that problems are reproducible using the official binary builds before reporting a bug in the Zotero Forums.

Known bugs

Word processor plugins crash Zotero on Wayland

See issue 165.

Workaround: Run the flatpak in X11/xwayland (flatpak override --user --nosocket=wayland --socket=x11 org.zotero.Zotero).

Notes

Remove home access permission

1. if they already exist, move folders ~/.zotero and ~/Zotero to the app sandbox, typically in ~/.var/app/org.zotero.Zotero/
2. remove home access premission: flatpak override --user --nofilesystem=home org.zotero.Zotero

Please read issue 82 if you're curious why Zotero still uses the home permission by default.
