rstudio will not launch on Pop-OS! 19.10

Fresh install of RStudio is not working.

Steps taken:

When launching Rstudio through the terminal, I get this output:

Gtk-Message: 12:47:58.944: Failed to load module "appmenu-gtk-module"

Hi, and welcome!

I'm on POP-OS! 19.10, too.

Here's what I recommend:

  1. Uninstall Microsoft-R-open
  2. Install the official R from CRAN
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install r-base
