Tray icons in GNOME, done properly (I hope) – my first extension
So I got tired of the few tray extensions out there never quite doing what I wanted, and ended up building my own: Better Tray Icons
The idea was also to make the switch from Windows or Mac a bit easier. If you miss your tray icons, this brings some of that familiarity back to GNOME.
Icons go back in the panel, the rest hides in a popup. Reorder everything with drag-and-drop, set custom click actions, swap icons out, style it however you want. There's also export/import and sync across devices via JSON.
It's been sitting in the EGO review queue for months, so for now you can only install it from the repo:
github -> nexaknight/BetterTrayIcons
Wayland only btw, and disable other tray extensions first or they'll fight each other.
Would love some feedback, it's my first extension!
