Just a heads up: PySimpleGUI 5 isn't open source any more [0], and the official GitHub repo was replaced with a stub [1]. From the blog post, it sounds like the people behind it will probably remove the FOSS version from PyPI soon.
It's possible the community will fork it with a version of PySimpleGUI 4 that's still kicking around, but I haven't seen one yet.

Project mention: Announcing tray-gtk 0.1.0 | /r/Kotlin | 2023-04-30

For some time now I was forced to use the SystemTray library when I wanted to have a nice tray menu/icon for the Linux apps I develop. What I didn't like about it was that it was pretty bloated and didn't work well with ProGuard.
