It used to work on Fedora out-of-the-box, but when I installed ProtonVPN on Debian I couldn't get it to minimize to the waybar tray.

The instructions at the proton installation guide page for debian provide a fix for Gnome. Does something like it exist for sway?

Do other tray applications work?

Yes, everything else I use works and minimizes to tray as usual

Oh okay, I thought it might have been some config issue with the tray waybar module. But seems like it's not. I'm not sure in this case, maybe look at the logs if there's some dependency missing or something

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
