Its even worse when you force Firefox to use wayland its icon doesn’t even show.

Edit: Oh since everyone now is confused; I only have the flatpak version of Firefox installed yet it doesn’t use the pinned icon and doesn’t even use the firefox icon under wayland at all.

    Again, how would not providing any Linux app at all be preferable over an Electron app? How would it lead to you having a better Linux app?

      Because it’s the easy way out. Just like if Valve’s Proton ever gets good enough people will entirely stop making native ports. They will just ell you use Proton and you as a user lose in the long run.

        Ok, what’s your suggestion? Go back to a world before wine when Linux gaming was Tux Racer?

        I much prefer solid, well working games with great performance delivered through Proton than no games at all.

        The 90s called, they want their native-purism back.

          You can downvote all you like. People will always take easier route, just how IE was default browser for decades just because people didn’t have to install it and it was already there.
