Summary
This pull request prevents Joplin from starting minimized on GNOME.
This should fix #8256.
Explanation
At present, Joplin always starts minimized (unless running in dev mode), and is then shown or remains hidden based on the
startMinimized
setting.However, the GNOME desktop environment seems to not always show a minimized window when requested. As such, this pull request should fix Joplin windows sometimes not appearing (#8256).
Testing plan
This pull request changes some logic related to the "start minimized" feature. Thus, this feature needs to be manually tested.
