  • an application with an odd name, designed entirely to easily install and update the Firefox GNOME Theme, which transforms Firefox (or LibreWolf, in my case) into something that much more closely resembles a GNOME/libadwaita application

    When I used to be around in reddit once read a post or a comment from someone who claimed to be a gnome dev calling for a direct port of firefox to wayland to solve all of those gui kit issues once and for all.

    Someone else said such thing was not possible - you can port gui apps’ kits to gui kits, not to desktop rendering engines - but a few days ago I also read something about developing an app directly on wayland and that it would be really difficult.

    At this point I don’t know what to believe but if this can be done it would be awesome. It’s kind of funny that the linux version of firefox, written in gtk, needs extra stuff to look good and integrated even in freaking gnome
