Nextcloud appimage (any version) or FlatPak not retaining credentials

So another quick “growing pain” as I try to get all my applications up and running. It seems that the Nextcloud desktop clients don’t retain their credentials after a reboot. Tried several versions of the appimage and the available FlatPak and cannot get past this. Have tried completely deleting (including user data stored in /home) and it still has the same issue. Has anyone overcome this? I don’t want to reduce my nextcloud security to make logging in every time less painful. Works great on Linux Mint and Windows. (edit) - another quick note, it goes through the COMPLETE sync cycle as if it was newly installed every time I have to login. So this is creating a mess on my client and my server.

Why not using a native install?

Simply because it wouldn’t show up in “Discover” and the FlatPak it offered was horrible. I may switch over to it now that I know it exists! Thank you.
