Huh, not sure why it would work. StartupWMClass is an X11 thingy. If you run firefox nightly with native wayland support, only two things should matter - the app id specified using --name firefox-nightly and the file name of the desktop file firefox-nightly.desktop.

Thanks! I believe this is the problem. The .desktop file name does not match with my '--name' option. Seems GNOME also uses this StartWMClass in Xwayland session somehow.

Hi,
I'm on X11 and I had to add --class firefox-nightly to the Exec:

Exec=/home/vlad/Applications/firefox-nightly/firefox --name firefox-nightly --class firefox-nightly -P Nightly %u

Otherwise, when lauching the nighly app, it was grouped with the standard firefox in the dock.

PS: Before that, I was using Wayland on Fedora (with Gnome), and the StartupWMClass did the trick. But on X11, I had to add the --class param
