These days, “modern” desktop environments (say GNOME, KDE, Ubuntu at least) are able to communicate with MPRIS2 capable media players. It means that they can display information about what’s playing, and also allow some basic control over the player.

It’s also possible to launch Goodvibes with the --status-icon
option. In
this mode, Goodvibes will not display a main window, but will instead add an

This being said, here’s how Goodvibes looks like in Status Icon mode.
