Ok, I got it working by uninstalling and re-installing (after trying the snap package that didn't work)

thanks for the suggestions!

Ok, thanks.  Here's the errors message:

Perhaps you have use geany in sudo mode.

Looks like a permission problem.  I hate fixing linux permission problems.  Any suggestions (other than tacking on "sudo" in front of every single command, ha ha)?  I wish there was a blanket security permission thing I could just set to "low" as I'm literally the only person using this system.

Perhaps changing owner of .run/user/1000/geany

sudo chown -R $user:$user .run/user/1000/geany
