same on manjaro, and the problem is it seems that there is nowhere to configure the homeserver?

Check you can reach matrix.org: https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/11154 means that this is the error you get if the default homeserver is inaccessible.

matrix.org appears to be unreachable right now (as does vector.im) (tinfoil hat time).

This is a serious problem for users in China, since the official server is blocked by the GFW, but my homeserver isn't. I was planning to set the server after the software has been launched, but the software is blocked at startup.
