Mac App not receiving messages

Hello new user here, I tried setting it up on multiple accounts and so far only the Mac App is making me problems

Seems that the Mac App has a bunch of issues (atleast for me), I created a table to hopefully explain it better

I tried it all with/out local peer depedency (on all devices) , with/out proxy, on Mac the current and beta, all in the same network , on Android also with Mobile Data, but all in all, the Mac App seems to be the one that don’t want to work for me, I even tried using the mobile hotspot (if its my wifi, but since the other devices work there it shouldn’t be the source why it doesn’t work)

Function / Test Mac & Android Mac & iPad Android & iPad
Contact / Converstation Start No messages sent / received on either side ;;; accepting an invitation super flaky, need to restart the app multiple times get some result, but often only ends up with “waiting on other user to synchronize” etc from Mac Side: “waiting on other user to synchronize” Works perfectly, using either same the Wifi or even mobile Data on the Android
Group created from Mac Not receiving any messages, but sent messages received on Android Not receiving any messages on Mac, but sent messages received on iPad Messages for Android & iPad received / visible on both devices
Group created from Android Tried two Mac Accounts: - the first no invitation at all, the 2nd accepted invitation but again “waiting to synchronize” (same as column before since I can send or see anything on mac here) Works as above ^
Group created from iPad same as above ^ same as above
Typing Hint on groups where all are present, the hints are sent / displayed everywhere on groups where all are present, the hints are sent / displayed everywhere on groups where all are present, the hints are sent / displayed everywhere
Calling Mic Only Even though the “synchronization not working” I could call the android - voice connection worked
Calling Video Video worked most of the time as well No iPad Video out, but the video from the Mac worked No iPad Video out, but the video from the Mac worked

I searched through the forum, and gitlab issues but couldn’t find anything that looks a like that, maybe I used the wrong keywords :grimacing:

What I haven’t tried yet is to setup my own server for it.

I and my family will probably mostly use the mobile devices instead of Laptops so its not real deal breaker, I just still want just know if its something on my MacBook or the Desktop App maybe here at fault
