Shawn Bird / Pride System Icon · GitLab
gitlab.com
Add a pride flag to the system tray of most Linux environments.

Just a little system tray icon to show support for the LGBTQ+ community.

Originally created last year as a simple one-off project in response to Windows 11 users getting mad about a pride icon appearing on their task bar.

This year I remade it in Go, added support for Windows (7 and up), and improved compatibility with a variety of Linux environments.

Let me know what you think, or don’t, just please be nice about it.

    Sorry, but this is really useless. I support the cause, but there is absolutely no need for this software. I think this community is meant for software that actually has a use.

      I wasn’t aware that we all had to adhere to YOUR standards of which softwares are useful/needed.

      Sometimes people just want something. Maybe it doesn’t align with what you want, but that doesn’t make it wrong.

      It’s free and it’s open source software. It can be discussed here.

      Some software is more about looking nice than serving a utility.

      I learned a lot about the system tray writing it. I think it stands as a decent example for how to add an icon to the system tray.

      Your comment is really useless. I support the cause of free speech, but there is absolutely no need for what you said. I think this community is meant for discussions that are meaningful
