To ensure maximum compatibility and stability in headless environments, consider adding --disable-software-rasterizer and --disable-dev-shm-usage alongside --disable-gpu.

  • --disable-software-rasterizer: Prevents Electron from falling back to software-based GL rendering, which can still cause issues on some headless hosts.
  • --disable-dev-shm-usage: Prevents crashes in environments where the shared memory partition (/dev/shm) is too small, a common issue in headless or containerized setups.
