No tray icon in desktop environments lacking app indicator

Electron 22 included a https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/36333 for Tray icons using https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/StatusNotifierItem/, with no fallback for desktop environments that do not support it (e.g. i3).

As a result, with 1Password 8.10.0 (Electron/22.0.0), I have no tray icon in i3, but I do with 1Password 8.9.14 (Electron/21.2.2).

    Hey folks, thanks for reaching out. As @cbalmforth mentioned, this is a known issue and should be fixed in a future stable release 👍

    I've been sticking to 8.9.14 for now, but good to know that the beta seems to have it resolved. Thanks for the update!

    I just tried the beta 8.10.1-1 and it seems to fix the problem.

    I raised a support ticket for this issue and was told today that the problem is known and being worked on. Is it possible to download the previous version in the meantime?
