Google Chrome and all Electron apps no longer display on screen (Ubuntu 20.04)

ar flag

After a recent update and restart Google Chrome and ALL of my Electron based apps no longer appear on the screen.

They start okay and I can see them running in the system monitor and htop. I can also see the application window by right clicking the dock icon and clicking all windows, I can see a thumbnail of the running application but there is simply no output whatsoever on the desktop. All other native applications and steam games run okay.

Running Chrome from the CLI:

I've tried removing Google Chrome completely with apt purge and deleted all the configs and reinstall but it's still the same.

Is there something else I should be trying?

It will work if you use the command spotify --no-zygote But the error message will continue in the terminal, in this question I don't know why.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
