- Operating System (Platform and Version): Ubuntu 18.04
- App version (at Preferences > About): Aether Community Edition v2.0.0-dev.13, build 1906191901.7eaf250
Expected Behavior
Either:
- Aether and all its associated processes should actually quit when I click the Quit menu item, or
- some indication that there are background processes running should stick around, assuming they do something like talking to other peers that I might want to disable (e.g. on a metered network)
Actual behavior
Two processes keep running in the background after I quit Aether.
To Reproduce
-
open Aether
-
close Aether (tray icon → Quit)
-
$ ps aux | rg aether josh 15616 1.3 1.1 263604 192600 ?

The argument to
--adminfepk
is a long hex string, which I’ve redacted out of an (over)abundance of caution.
