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.
looks more like a KDE issue rather than a flatpak issue
I use flatpak and I actually like it. It is one of the ways I can get up to date packages on Debian.
I don't get it. Do you have two versions of Firefox installed?
What are you talking about ? isn't the firefox icon on the left a standard app from a distro repo instead of a flatpak like the one on the right ?
Man, everything works great on my PopOS AMD rig with Wayland.
i have no issues with flatpak, once i found out how to fix gtk scaling and theming issues on kde. here's a link if anyone has those problems as well https://bugsfiles.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=135846.
I use the Firefox flatpak on multiple different desktops and distros and I've never seen this issue. All on wayland (no difference on x11 either). Weird.
PEBKAC
I'm using KDE + Firefox Flatpak + Papirus Icons and I haven't had this issue (so far). Could it be an icon pack issue or something similar? Otherwise yeah it's either KDE or the flatpak
Is this really a flatpak issue? I've been dealing with this with Firefox periodically for many years, even before flatpak
I never intend to use a flatpak or snap, and avoid them like the plague. The whole concept is incredibly ugly to me, and wasteful of computer resources.
Oh.. dude… Fanboys won’t like that…
