Unfortunately, following the whitelisting step suggested in the link does not seem to make the app appear either.
We could theoretically use a different GUI toolkit on Linux than other OSes, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea.

Maybe if we abstract out all of the logic?

Alternatively, given the limited functionality the application actually needs, we might want to just write native, non-python apps?
