using gtk4? about tray-icon

[FabianLars]

Hi, i really wish we could do it. The tray library is tauri's biggest gtk4 blocker afaik (except for the work of upgrading😅) but unfortunetely libappindicator, the linux tray library, requires gtk3 and won't update to gtk4 anytime soon (ref) especially considering that many distros still only use the "old" library (the one without ayatana in its name) which is basically unmaintained.

So i guess it's more likely we'll drop libappindicator for knsi or something at some point than using gtk4.

Damn it... may I ask if you know any alternatives to create system trays with rust?

[FabianLars]

There's a rust implementation for ksni here https://github.com/iovxw/ksni but i don't know how usable it is.
