OCT Crashes When Joining from Container

[enderger]

The following error messages are produced the moment someone attempts to join OCT from VSCode within one of Vanilla OS's containers. The files are visible for a second before the editor disconnects.

The errors are found in the main logfile

Hey @enderger,

Since you're running in a container, are you using the server version of VSCode? Or are you somehow tunneling the desktop version through a container?

Hey @enderger,

I'm using the desktop version of VSCode via Vanilla OS's apx utility. It allows apps in a OCI compatible container to be accessed as a desktop app (distrobox is a more portable implementation of this).
