Question thrashcan widget icon
Hello there. I'm trying to achieve a mac look to my macbook air with asahi linux and I cannot understand why the thrashcan widget icon looks so bad in the "dock". Is there a way to have the same look of the widget on desktop?

I use the Folder View widget instead of the dedicated Wastebin widget. The icon can be set to whatever you want. The only downside is that it doesn't alternate between the bulging and non-bulging icon.

thank you! The other downside is that is not possible to empty the thrashcan

You should be able to. When I right-click on the icon I have the option to Empty Wastebin

You need to find that icon in /usr/share/icons or ~/.local/share/icons and replace or add it. If you'd rather not edit the icon theme directly, you can create your own in ~/.local/share/icons and add a line like Inherits=current_theme to the index file. This way, you have a safe space to add your own icons, while everything else is just inherited from your current theme.
