Whenever I run bottles it just crashes.
Terminal log:

(process:218898): Gtk-WARNING **: 16:53:40.041: Unknown key gtk-modules in /home/frisk/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini

(process:218898): Adwaita-WARNING **: 16:53:40.077: Using GtkSettings:gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme with libadwaita is unsupported. Please use AdwStyleManager:color-scheme instead.

Gdk-Message: 16:53:40.710: Error 71 (Protocol error) dispatching to Wayland display.

Other notes:
Tried to install the git version from the aur to no avail.
Running it as admin makes it launch but no change can be saved in the app.

System info:
Arch Linux, Kernel 6.11.5, KDE 6.2, Ryzen 8845hs with Radeon 780M APU, Wayland

Bottles only supports flatpak

fleet karma
#

I tried but keep failing to do so, also I installed through the AUR on my desktop with similar setup and worked fine

#

I will try to see what I was doing wrong and install it through flatpak

#

Update: The issue I have is with org.flatpak.builder, despite it beeing installed, when I run the install command for bottles, terminals states org.flatpak.builder is not installed

did you add flathub

#

and restarted

#

flatpak comes without the de-facto default repository called flathub by default

#

the instructions to add it are on the flathub website

And solved, thanks. I followed the instructions on the bottles github and did not know it was this simple. I had the flatpak package installed which included flathub already
