KDocker Alternatives

KDocker reviews and mentions

• Is there some way to have btop start running at OS boot and leave it running in the KDE system tray at all times?
  1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 2 Oct 2022

  ksystraycmd is deprecated. It's not present since KDE 5. Try using kdocker instead.

• Does KDE have a way/option to have a bottom menu for background programs? I dont want discord and other things to constantly be in my task bar. Everytime I close them, they get fully shut down, instead of being put in a background task...which is pretty annoying

  For apps that don't have a setting, you can use KDocker. I do that with Pulse Effects for the audio equalization GUI to run in the background.

• Is there any way to minimize a Firefox Window to the system tray?

  You can try MinimizeToTray (Windows), or KDocker (Linux).

• Any way to minimise a window on loss of focus?
  1 project | /r/kde | 11 Jan 2022

  I think KDocker has a minimize on focus loss feature.

• Linux Mint: Is Cron/Anacron right tool for this: start program on weekdays?

  Thunderbird is only one example of a handful of programs I'd like to set in this way. However, as another question: I've been using KDocker to dock Thunderbird in the tray. I have KDocker running as a prefix (I think I'm using that right?) in the shortcut, so KDocker triggers when I hit the Thunderbird shortcut, and then Kdocker checks that Thunderbird really opens. However, if this doesn't happen within 30 seconds (apparently the maximum time for Kdocker), I get a popup that KDocker couldn't find it's target.

• Is there a way to minimize app to tray?
  1 project | /r/i3wm | 12 Jun 2021

  Try KDocker

• Can I set that programs get minimized/closed to system tray instead of being minimized/closed?
  1 project | /r/kde | 6 Feb 2021

  there's KDocker but i don't think it's actively developed.

• Desktop Signal - Any way to minimize Signal to an icon like the Discord app, so it doesn't take up space alongside my main programs?
  1 project | /r/signal | 1 Feb 2021

  You can use KDocker to minimize anything to systray. I use the Debian package for it
