Electron applications launch invisibly

Maybe they are set to “Launch automatically at boot/login”?
Do you have a tray icon with them?

Well yeah, I set to autostart, via the autostart menu in the system settings. Like I said in my post

I don’t see the icon in the system tray

Maybe you have to hit the Advanced button, once one selected, and set to Autostart only in Plasma .
With the changes of the Tray, maybe a delayed startup will help too.
For example:
Exec=sleep 10s && discord
in the discord.desktop file inside your ~/.config/autostart/

I already have it set to only start in plasma.

And don’t think that adding a sleep is going to help it appear. Keep in mind, the window itself is just also invisible. it’s not just that there is no icon in the system tray

Ok, i will install it myself and make a test even tho i don’t use it, since it seems we have to get argumentative here.

Was the same with pamac

Edit: Made my own test on two installs. Discord starts from Autostart with no problem, and no need to change anything about the autostart. The window of the app is visible with the default Manjaro provided theme.
