Pokemon TCG Live on Linux is unplayable.

Hello,

I'm a huge fan of the Pokemon TCG and love to play the TCG Live app on my phone. However, the best experience for me is on the PC/Laptop client, which has been completely unplayable on Linux for some time now. Upon booting the game, I am prompted to select my language and then redirected to a browser. However, after logging in, I am not given the choice to open a redirect in the TCG client and I am stuck on the "Log In to Pokemon Trainer Club" screen.

I would like to ask that this issue be resolved, or that a native Linux client be developed for trainers on Linux. It is frustrating that this problem has been occurring for as long as it has been, and even more so that the issue is seemingly being ignored by the developers. Please fix this!

    I wanted to second something like this! I've fallen a bit out of the Pokemon TCG because I haven't been able to play at all on my desktop, and the mobile version just isn't for me. I love building decks and it's easiest for me to have TCG Live open on one monitor and my notes in another. I've barely touched anything with Phantasmal Flames and I've slowed down with going to my locals because the fun for me comes with building new decks.

    I completely understand Linux isn't a supported version and that it would take more resources to create a Linux version, but I hope they at least fix the bugs that has prevented Linux from working and offer an alternate log in method.
