KDE Plasma Getting Chrome Integration, Followed By Firefox

[FishPls]

Hope the "Chrome" support is something generic for Chromium, meaning other Chromium-based browsers (Opera, Vivaldi) work too.

Well, else I can't use this new feature.

Applications which don't natively have Wayland support can be used during a Wayland session via Xwayland. On my laptop, which runs Plasma/Wayland, everything including Firefox works just fine. Chrome can be launched too, no issues.

And this is related to a new Plasma feature how?

But Chrome and Firefox needs to get ported to Wayland to run on KDE on Wayland.

Because now KWin and KDE Plasma can run on Wayland.

INB4, the link has a photo which explicitly shows you can disable features individually so you don't have to have your desktop know your browsing history.

I'm super excited. More desktop integration has always been what I've wanted from my browser and it kinda comes and goes as times and tech change.
