Describe the bug
The "View at" option in the indicator menu is greyed out, unavailable to use.
Context
This happens consistently.
To Reproduce
- What I Did: tap Variety indicator in panel
- What I Expected: can arrow to and click or mouse to and tap enter on View at... option; this would open the source of the image (say APOD) for more info.
- What Happens instead: the View at... option is greyed out; cannot arrow to or click on.

Additional context
Update: I'm confused.
- I had noticed the above behavior for weeks before posting; it was consistent.
- A few hours after posting, I noticed that the View at... menu item was working.
- Rebooting, it was greyed out and unavailable again.
- A day later--and only some mundane office work and one small update to Obsidian (flatpak) later--the *View at..." menu was once again working.
BTW, I have Variety installed via the Fedora RPM repository.
And I have included the latest log.
This is working for me on Xfce on v0.8.11 (tested Reddit and NatGeo sources), I wonder if it's an issue with the GNOME indicator plugin.
I am currently experiencing this issue.
I'm on:
Hardware:
Intel i7-13700k
Gigabyte z790 Aorus Elite AX
Linux install:
OS: Debian 12
GNOME: 43.9
Windowing System: X11
Gnome Extension: AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support/)
Note that it seems the Windowing system doesn't matter. X11 and Wayland cause the same issue.
The AppIndicator extensions seems to work well for other software that uses it as I haven't see any other trouble.
I should mention, it seems to work (but I don't know how long) if I disable the Gnome Extension: AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support and then reenable it. I think the suggestion earlier that it may be Gnome related may hold some water.
It doesn't work when I first login. But, once I lock and unlock the screen it suddenly works again.
Seems to be related to #635. In previous version I couldn't copy to favorites, but now with 0.8.12 it's the "View at" that's not working. Apparently somebody is playing Whac-A-Mole.
Ubuntu 24.04
Gnome 46
Wayland
I am experiencing the same issue with KDE 6 (wayland).
