Prusa Connect tab is still completely empty

Description of the bug

I just upgraded to Version 2.8.1-rc1+win64 from the 2.8.0 release, and there is no difference in the Prusa Connect tab.

Project file & How to reproduce

No project file, just open PrusaSlicer and click on the Prusa Connect tab. Here is a screenshot of the tab:

This tab has never worked for me, so the issue reported in the Change Log does not apply to me, as it states that the issue only occurs after the tab has been opened for some time.

UPDATE: After several minutes on the tab, the following is displayed:

Same issue with 2.8.1 and linux (ubuntu 24.01) with latest 6.2.0-alpha1+8672 firmware and using appimage. No connect and no "send to printer" working anymore. Using 2.8.0, everything works as expected and printer can be seen.

When I log out of the Account, I can't even login back, login screen is empty.

Note: I used appimage. Using flatpak, I have the issues on both 2.8.0 and 2.8.1.

The issues may be somewhat similar, but my observation of the Prusa Connect tab has never changed since it was first introduced, other than the new clickable icon in the bottom right. The page has never displayed anything other than a blank white page, which would eventually change to Connection Failed message after some time.
