Description

The Electron version used by @joplin/app-desktop is Electron 19 which has been EOL since November 2022 according to https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/tutorial/electron-timelines

This version of Electron still has some bugs regarding running under Wayland sessions. Electron 20 is the first version that adds support for ozone-platform-hint, however it's also EOL too. I believe Joplin should move to Electron 25 if there are no blockers, since it just went stable today.

Environment

Joplin version: 2.10.19
Platform: Linux
OS specifics: Fedora 38

Describe what you expected to happen

Joplin should attempt to follow Electron release schedule as closely as possible to provide better platform support, get security and performance updates and provide a consistent experience.
