> I noticed Slack was incredibly fuzzy…. it doesn’t use Wayland. People should stop using that crappy Electron Apps, that does exactly the same thing that opening a webapp page on a tab of your browser. Seriously, you are wasting RAM and CPU (and battery) doing that. And this it's totally independent of you using Windows, OSX, Linux, BSD... I use Slack and Discord from the web browser, and I don't have any issues. Also, I get fro free, better support of that webapps running in Wayland

Browsers should have a good way of running a kiosked-ish tab in a native-like way then. I don't want to switch to my browser for Slack and then dig through tabs to find it, I want just to switch to Slack.

  Just pin the tab to keep it at a fixed place. I pin Gmail and Slack as these are frequently accessed by me.

    I would still have to switch back to it from whatever other tab I was looking at. I don't want to do that. I will continue installing a specific app just for that, even if it didn't have other benefits (which it does: no browser frame, systray icon, native notifications, ...)
