App can't work in the background

Gabriel Souza

I use Thunderbird 160.0 (flatpak) on Fedora Workstation 45. On my GNOME settings, I see that Thunderbird is allowed to work in the background, and I do have another app that is also a flatpak and works fine in the background (Anytype). I wish I could close my Thunderbird window and still get notifications when emails arrive and that it started automatically on startup, without opening a window.
