Update in 2024: You'll probably want to install via Snap, now that it's available and working fairly well.

Thanks!

@Msonko07 you want to make sure the folder exists first. Are you using ubuntu?

I'm surprised it's not there, but maybe you are using a different distribution with a different folder structure.

You can try mkdir -p /home/.local/share/applications to create the folder, but I don't think that going to help much if you are using some other linux distribution.

Thanks @JochemKuijpers

thanks for sharing. now, I can pin my postman on sidebar as favorite on my os-ubuntu.
