It looks like in the linked issue there was a bug there and that is fixed and pending release. So, what is there still to do on our side for this...?

@jfversluis well, I guess there is not much that could be done. I simply, thought this should be tracked here too.
And maybe, this indicates there should be a test added?
I mean, any MAUI app crashes on android if you do some data fetching in the background at startup. Isn't that a major concern? Where else should MAUI users share such information, if not here?
Apologies if this is not the right approach to file an issue, just wanted to help by sharing the info I found.
