I have found #birdtray to be a useful utility to show the status or #Thunderbird in my #KDE desktop. However, since version 102 of the #e-mail client, it stopped showing how many unread messages there were. I saw a discussion about it on the #Github site and there’s an #update which fixes that little #bug. So, I downloaded the #source and it works again after #compilation and #installation.

#Wayland on #KDE is getting better. I think I might be nearing switching over to it. It’s a pity that #Birdtray only works in #X11 as I find it a nifty configurable utility for alerting me to new messages on #Thunderbird. If that were to work, I’d make the switch today. It’s sometimes odd how little things stop one from changing bigger things.

ha ben je viens de découvrir Birdtray (vieux motard que jamais ), qui remplace avantageusement feu Firetray.

Progress is not always positive in my opinion. A few days ago, #Thunderbird was upgraded to version 68 and some of my #addons such as #FireTray were broken by it. It’s disappointing when development is not backward compatible although that isn’t always a good thing either. Anyway, I’m giving #birdtray a go which is under #GPLv3.
