I don't know what all wayland goodies Fedora brings to know if they're here...but it's X11 in about:support...
You could override the Flatpak to use Wayland and drop the symbolic icon into your local icons folder.Last edited by Britoid; 10 March 2020, 04:14 AM.

When it comes to Mozilla I really don't trust them anymore seeing their greediness to get my data and I want a solution that doesn't auto-update to the latest version.
I want to be able to get a version that is good and use that until another one comes.
AppImage isn't even comparable, it has a flawed design that will never allow it to run everywhere or gaurantee it runs on the same system after an OS update.Last edited by Britoid; 10 March 2020, 04:15 AM.
