so, I have a couple of Flatpak electron apps that need to be coerced into running under Wayland (Element, Freetube, etc.). they run fine with Xwayland, but I need xlsclients (show Xwayland apps) output to be empty for unrelated reasons. so what I’m doing is:
- determining where the .desktop file is, by way of right-clicking app in the Application Launcher, Edit Application, etc.
- reconstructing where the file actually is, as I usually get a symlink
- copying the file to
~/.local/share/applications/ - editing the file to add
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform,WebRTCPipeWireCapturer --ozone-platform=waylandor whatever its case may be
that’s it, Plasma picks up the change almost instantly.
this seems super-convoluted, is there a better way?
