    I’m happy to see it’s finally happening, and I hope they left its implementation flexible.

    What I’d really love to see (aside from triple buffer) is a real solution to the system tray situation. AppIndicator is problematic for some apps and under certain X11/Wayland desktops, and even when it works well it is cumbersome to use compared to traditional tray implementations. Hoping we see a new approach soon.

    In the meantime, I’ve been enjoying a revisit to KDE Plasma under Kinoite and I have to say I’m really impressed with both DEs!

      Gnome have been trying to agree on a standardised, cross-desktop system tray replacement for a long time now. Unfortunately it hasn’t really got anywhere, so it’ll be a while.

        And I don’t even care if they keep it as a “tray”. I’d be content with integration into the dash if they can make it work smoothly. For example, just having the app start minimized as a regular icon (or segregated icon) in the dash…just something at this point.

    I’m a big fan of this, but I wish more drastic theming got better love. (yes I’m aware of stopthemeingmyapp or whatever)
