Not a bad Idea, it could have same notification number popup as has the notification bell for packages or pacdif.
But maybe using exclamation or question marker in that same theme would be better. The hourglass is okay but I agree its missable cause its thematically the same as is the rest of the top row UI
And for funzies why not add a counter to the “Called the exorcist” 
You really need a mascot character, called Rani. Would be cool. I saw the AthenaOS’s character. I think something similar would be great.
Something like an eagle head or a stylish G 
But I don’t think on this clear technical theme style is needed.
But, who knows
That’s rather a marketing move and a bit of QoL. I mean, wallpapers and other implementations of the Garuda’s char would, at least, look great. IMO.
I have those issue on the garuda test iso.fresh installed from Terminal. Updated and Rebooted.There is no log (was no log after reboot and terminal again)
i cant see this working.
following error then:

ps. Find out how to is working it opened a link in the background running FireDragon.Would be nice if its bring in front again.(Not tested with closed FireDragon becausee other stuff.)
Cancel button didnt work only.
WOW NICEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I like it very good work. If i remeber some troll talked garuda is no actions beside others i was laughing at all.This Distribution_Forum is also a great Place for Solutions or other stuff 
If you start to make plushies I will buy 3 right away
The Btrfs Assistant button does not work on Sway. 
It looks like it is running straight-up btrfs-assistant, is that right?
We should use the btrfs-assistant-launcher wrapper script here instead. It preserves some environment variables that are needed for launching the application or preserving the theme on certain DEs.
Also, this line appears to be from the “refresh mirrors” function; I think it was added to the Btrfs Assistant function by mistake: https://gitlab.com/garuda-linux/applications/rani/-/blob/main/src/app/maintenance/maintenance.component.ts?ref_type=heads#L222
Nice one, this can be the icon 
Good point. I noticed it myself but didn’t think about changing it haha.
Haha, I had a badge besides the terminal launcher in the earlier stages. Seems we need to return it?
Yes that’s true, but this also runs sudo -E so they should be preserved already. Weird! It did work this way while testing on KDE. But this should be an easy enough fix I hope.
Yessss 
Maybe a Chibi(small) Eagle. Kind of in that “cute” style like the KDE dinosaur or Pikachu
I think our mascot should be a picture the Garuda Eagle disemboweling the Microsoft Clippy mascot. 
Now that’s what I’m talking about @SGS .
Too funny, quick draw McGraw.
Hi Everyone. I’m been using RANI for the last few day’s, mostly OK, hung a few times but nothing serious.
I see it uses a password. I use Howdy Face Recognition and the password prompt box doesn’t invoke the usual Howdy Password response. Which Pam.d authentication file does it use so I can add the Howdy authentication to it?
I’d rather vote for an cyberpunk anime girl breaking the windows with the bat xD
Is he pooping a paper clip???
Idea for QoL improvement.
Would it be good to have garuda-inxi on the Welcome page? Or at least rename it in Rani?
Currently its under Diagnostic > Common info (inxi)
I think that’s a bit hidden for new users, considering one of the forum rules is to provide inxi. Maybe that would help new users just from the visual perspective when asking them to provide the inxi, so they know what is asked.
I didn’t even know I had pacdiffs to attend to.
suggestion: Shouldn’t settings like dark mode persist across reopenings?
