The gitify maintainers are raising this issue here as we believe it would be also affect other menubar-based applications.

This also applies when using multiple monitors. It's very random which monitor gets the app window.

We have the same problem without using menubar package. Our menubar-like functionality was implemented from scratch without knowning menubar is existing. So there are two options:

1. We made the same bug as menubar authors.
2. Electron itself has this bugged behavior.

I personally think we should raise it to the Electron developers.
