Issue: blurry tray icon

grafik

The betterbird icon is very blurry.
The taskbar has a height of 72px.
The tray icons are set to flexible size according to the height of the task bar.

For example Steam and Telegram are also Flatpak and the tray icons are not blurry,
I think its not a problem of Flatpak.

Betterbird may have different sizes for the tray icon for better scaling?!

Its not a very important issue, but its ugly ;)

Hmm, that is very surprising. So the desktop is KDE Plasma 5.27.4. We ship the desktop icon as SVG exactly to avoid any chance of blurriness:

+ strcat(icon_pathN, "/chrome/icons/default/newmail.svg");

So how on earth can that be blurry. It's not a problem we can fix, it's either a problem in https://github.com/AyatanaIndicators/libayatana-appindicator which we use or in KDE.

We had people try it out before we shipped it with SVG and the feedback was positive:

I would say, I´m special ;)

The only thing i could imagine, is that something is with the Flatpak version wrong....

Now I tried to install Betterbird from AUR to check its not depending on Flatpak but the checksum was wrong oO

You can just download the .tar.bz2 from our site, unpack it and run it. Takes 5 minutes tops.
