Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.113.0
Qt Version: 5.15.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Running Fedora 38 with Plasma and Chromium from the distro. By default Chromium
works normally but gets assigned an icon from another app and gets merged with
it in the task bar, see bug 358277 . The workaround described in that bug it so
use chrome://flags and set Preferred Ozone Platform to Wayland. This workaround
resolves the icon issue, but causes this other issue.
