I am a new user under MacOSX. I have installed Bisq under a second user. I have made an offer and got the message that I should keep the app awake. I have the feeling that the app sleeps when I switch back to my normal Mac user (obviously without logging out the Bisq user). Is that right ? If yes, is there a possibility to keep the app active while logged as another user.
