Comment on Microsoft CEO's pay rises 63% to $73m, despite devastating year for layoffs
egrets@lemmy.world 1 month agoIt’s been a little while since I used a KDE or Gnome desktop in anger; I can’t remember how they tackle issues where user attention is needed on an inactive app. What do you figure the best solution is? Make the taskbar/dock icon visually distinct (flashing, jumping, a badge, or similar) but don’t permit focus switch?

Blink the window-title and in case something like a taskbar is used, use the application icon to get attention.
But don’t act like you are the most important and single application on the system. Be modest.
