Simply because other people disagree.

Oops, shouldve probably explained it in the post.

ssd= server side decorations

server side decorations is when the system draws the titlebar, as opposed to client side decorations (csd) where the applications draws it.

for example, gnome uses csd, but kde uses ssd.

There’s debate over which is better, but the main difference is that csd allows applications to put anything in the titlebar, which can make the design nicer, and ssd allows the titlebars on all apps to be consistent, which I personally value more.

I’ll see about putting it there, ty!

Might not have been clear enough, this proposal still keeps the menu bar in the application headerbar, unless the user chooses to have a global menu.

This is just a different way of doing that that has certain benefits.

I did put it in the system76 community here and on reddit as well, the popOS community here seems kinda dead, is there a system76-ran forum I’m not aware of?

There’s also some whatsapp clients on flathub that claim to support linux mobile. Matrix bridges are also available.
