If you're willing to get into the weeds of it, you can build fluxer_desktop manually and it should read from the settings.json file. If the settings.json file doesn't exist, it'll default to the web.fluxer.app instance. The account switcher still shows the Instance URL setting as well in the self-built version: image image

Granted, this is only really helpful for testing at this point. Having to compile the dev desktop client for end users once self-hosting is officially "out" would be a nightmare.
