it should work. You can open an issue on the github page, and mention 
the desktop environment you are using.

Our dev Thomas is working with MS Windows and KDE on deb12. It should at 
least properly work on those two platforms.

I known there are still layout issue on Gnome due to gtk4/adwaita 
strangeness (gtk4, which should be renamed Adwaita, does not have much 
to do with original gtk toolkit...).

Thanks for your feedback,

Denis
