There is no item with selection of native notification display style (system notifications)

Steps to reproduce

Expected behaviour

After upgrading to telegram 5.10, the option to select notification display style in the “Notifications and Sounds” section is gone. Previously I could choose between native notification style (system notifications) and telegram branded notifications (telegram style notifications).

Actual behaviour

Now I can't select a notification style and only get system notifications

Operating system

Are you sure it's the update? Does it return if you downgrade?

I'm using the default wayland session. I tried running telegram in x11 compatibility mode, and there was one additional item in the settings. In the telegram.desktop file I have set the following compatibility mode:

Exec=env QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb /opt/telegram-desktop/Telegram -- %u

Strange why there are no similar settings with wayland session

[voedev]

Can someone please tell me how to use telegram style notifications on wayland?

[ilya-fedin]

You can't, sorry. You have to use X11 in order to use them.

Fedora KDE and GNOME have completely switched to wayland sessions and no longer provide even default packages to support X11 sessions. Wayland is being firmly implemented in Ubuntu as well and will even become a modern standard in LTS builds. It’s kind of weird to ignore this issue and just remove part of functionality from the application instead of adapting that functionality to a modern technology stack.

Wayland stakeholders ensured to prevent apps from implementing custom notifications while designing the protocol. And even in new protocol discussions they say things like "we need to make sure this protocol doesn't allow applications to implement custom notifications".

It's either Wayland or custom notifications, like you that or not.

For some reason, notifications are sometimes displayed incorrectly and graphic artifacts like this appear. I see this behavior only in telegram

There's nothing tdesktop could about that
