The i3 binary you just called: /usr/bin/i3
The i3 binary you are running: i3

What I did:

Started discord, switched to a new workspace, received a notification in discord,, switched back to the workspace that the discord window was on.

What I saw:

The window disappears. If no more notifications are received, the window reappears after about a minute. Reloading i3 causes the window to appear black. Swapping workspaces to it again causes the window to not appear.

What I expected instead:

The windows to appear after switching back to the workspace that the window is on.
