1. When I click or double-click on system tray icons (example: Discord or Deluge) nothing happens, I need to right click and then "open Discord" to actually open it.
2. When I do it the second way and have chrome in fullscreen mode opened and open discord from the background, the chrome stays on the top and discord window actually stays in the bacground so I have to manually bring it forward by clicking on the taskbar.
EDIT: If anyone has the 2nd problem, it is easily solved by going to settings >> Window management >> Window behavior and in the window focus tab set the Focus stealing prevention to NONE. If anyone has a solution for the first problem, it would be still greatly appreciated!
Let's see if it's somehow fixable in general.

Thanks! Hopefully things will be fixed eventually :)
Sadly I can only give you the context menu, which you would also find by right clicking, since the Steam Linux client uses Ubuntu's tray icon API, which only supports this behaviour and not raising the window directly.
But it's better than the icon not reacting at all on a left click.

How about the discord? Does it also just raise the menu I would get from right-clicking the menu? I've switched DE for the time until they fix the tray icons.
Edit: In fact, was that fix from you?
Yup. ;)

Ubuntu's unity has such interface yes :) Cinnamon, XFCE on the other hand have interfaces where you can single-click the icon and the window pops up, it would be really nice to have such functionality, but I guess if it's not possible I'll stick to Cinnamon for the time-being. I mean the tray is one of the most crucial things for my desktop usage since it really eases the workflow.
I asked this question here beforehand and some user with XFCE said, that it opens the context menu on for him. So this is not true for XFCE, are you sure?

100% sure, at least for electron apps like Skype for Linux alpha, Discord and Wmail... Why would I lie about that? xD
