<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dair-community.social/@trochee" class="u-url mention">@<span>trochee</span></a></span> yeah, what LLMs did show is that a lot of our economy is based on this *resembling*. This is a sad truth to recognize :-(</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/@wezm" class="u-url mention">@<span>wezm</span></a></span> makes total sense! Although still an undesirable gotcha :-)</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@isagalaev" class="u-url mention">@<span>isagalaev</span></a></span> ok I can reproduce it. It seems to the related to the cases under the 'Not smart enough' heading in <a href="https://blogs.gnome.org/shell-dev/2024/09/20/understanding-gnome-shells-focus-stealing-prevention/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">blogs.gnome.org/shell-dev/2024</span><span class="invisible">/09/20/understanding-gnome-shells-focus-stealing-prevention/</span></a></p><p>If I have an existing Files window open at ~/Downloads and click the button in Firefox I get the notification immediately. If instead Files is not running, or there is no window open at ~/Downloads then a new window is opened, and it gains focus as desired.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/@wezm" class="u-url mention">@<span>wezm</span></a></span> could be. To clarify, I don't know for sure, it's something I deduced over time, so there are probably some subtleties that I'm unaware of.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@isagalaev" class="u-url mention">@<span>isagalaev</span></a></span> hmm I don't think I did in this case. I was in Firefox, clicked the folder icon and saw the notification immediately. It's possible that the download dropdown being its own window and my focus returning to the main browser window confused it/there is a some sort of race condition.</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/@wezm" class="u-url mention">@<span>wezm</span></a></span> you probably changed focus to something else in the meantime. I noticed it shows this notification when the user shifts the focus away from the app that is about to show something, so Gnome doesn't want to steal the focus from something the user explicitly changed for.</p>
<p>Does anyone know why <a href="https://mastodon.decentralised.social/tags/GNOME" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GNOME</span></a> does the thing where it shows a notification "'App name' is ready" instead of showing the actual window. I clicked the 📁 icon in the Firefox downloads drop-down to open the enclosing folder. Instead of doing that it said "Files is ready", and I had to click again on that notification to make the Files window appear. On Windows and macOS the same action opens a Finder or Explorer window directly. Weirdly if I try to reproduce it now, it opens the window as expected.</p>
