How does one run such apps that are based on electron? I tried with and without --no-sandbox. Both fail but in different ways.

Here is an example with Slack, which I installed using nix-env -i slack in a nix-user-chroot shell:

$ nix-user-chroot ~/.nix sh -lc 'slack'
[54861:0413/112114.239424:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /nix/store/agrqzqhdrvpbgsr3gkpb5893rhhi1isz-slack-4.29.149/lib/slack/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

$ nix-user-chroot ~/.nix sh -lc 'slack --no-sandbox'

(electron) Sending uncompressed crash reports is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of Electron. Set { compress: true } to opt-in to the new behavior. Crash reports will be uploaded gzipped, which most crash reporting servers support.
