Description Zamundaaa 2020-10-04 21:56:58 UTC
The plugin (in Firefox) just shows "no devices found". The process ending with "kdeconnect_chrome" that is there on X11 appears to not start on Wayland.

Which browser extension are you referring to?

This one: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/kde_connect/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search

I just noticed the link in its description. I guess its bugs are not tracked here?
Comment 3 Nicolas Fella 2020-10-08 22:44:31 UTC
yes, that extension is not maintained by KDE so please report issues to the author

I actually figured it out now...
Apparently the plugin wasn't properly installed on my laptop (where I'm using Wayland, vs X on my desktop). Installed it again and now it works, lol.
