Fedora 30 KDE with the AppImage (v1.16.3) here; no such problem either.

qBittorrent had a similar issue recently (fixed in qbittorrent/qBittorrent#10590), and it seems to be related to the QCloseEvent class. The AppImage probably works because it comes with an older version of Qt.

I just want to note that this issue doesn't seem to be effecting the AppImage, I have been using the latest stable AppImage since a few weeks and I never observed this issue.

(Same OS - Fedora 30 with KDE)

The same problem exists in Gentoo with net-im/qtox-1.16.3, dev-qt/qtgui-5.12.5 and kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-5.16.5.
