@10volt GNOME isn't even opposed to the system tray, there opposed to the hacky way it currently works and they feel like they can do it better.

@BrodieOnLinux In essense, GNOME still does have a system tray... Sort of. It's basically just reserved for the system status, like network connections or screen capture or recording or sound devices, power state, etc.

Applications show their state on the icon. Which is visible on the dash/dock/whatever else you wanna call it.

Not every app supports this mode of operation as of yet, that's why we still can have the old-school systray extension. Fair enough.

Is this really a thing? I can't think of any apps doing this on linux nor any way I would have heard of to do so

@drq @BrodieOnLinux @10volt Isn't that a relatively new thing only on ubuntu that just counts the number of unseen desktop notifications
