The library aims to provide an easy way to interact with the various portals defined per the specifications. It provides an alternative to the C library https://github.com/flatpak/libportal

Really? For the most part portals are used transparently from the toolkit, and when they're not libportal makes it pretty straight-forward.

Whats the best native file picker?
So currently I'm using rfd which works perfectly on linux. But it seems to not work on windows, and i know of the the single thread issue on macos.

How can I move variable outside async block?
Sure, thanks for the suggestions. I initially thought this would be a generic issue that didn't need much context, I now see that's not the case... I also like to think about this particular code as a "block". The block has to open a file and call self.reset(&code). Therefore, I don't have a particular commit with an issue, the code itself (which I basically copied from the rfd example has the issue...

ASHPD 0.2 release, a XDG DBus portals wrapper in Rust
I used this to contribute a backend for rfd so you can have cross platform native file dialogs without depending on GTK on Linux.

zbus 2.0 (Super easy! Barely an inconvenience) is out!
I haven't yet used the dbus crate but I was thinking of doing so soon for https://github.com/PolyMeilex/rfd/issues/36. Could you elaborate what bothered you about the dbus crate and why you think zbus is nicer to use?
