Subject: [ISSUE] [RFC] Building Signal-Desktop (and other electron applications) on aarch64

New issue by akierig on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/38609

Description:
I'm looking for help figuring out how to natively build Signal-Desktop (and potentially other Electron applications) on `aarch64`. As noted in my most recent update to Signal-Desktop (PR #38565) they are packaging a native version for Apple Silicon, but my own attempts to recreate their build for Apple Silicon has failed. 

However there is [a version for `aarch64`](https://elagost.com/flatpak/) that is provided through flatpak.[^1] I was able to get it running under a Debian ARM VM. Flatpak has a variety of issues that make it undesirable as a long term solution.

I'd welcome any help or PRs to get this working for ARM. I don't presently have a Void ARM VM setup, so anyone who'd be willing to try building it on either a VM or bare metal would be appreciated.
