### Removed: `skipTaskbar` on Linux

See `skipTaskbar` discussion in 19.0 below. This feature is not available on
Wayland. Since most modern Linux desktops are transitioning to Wayland, this
feature will be removed for Linux.

## Planned Breaking API Changes (19.0)

### Unsupported: `skipTaskbar` on Linux

On X11, `skipTaskbar` sends a `_NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR` message to the X11
window manager. There is not a direct equivalent for Wayland, and the known
workarounds have unacceptable tradeoffs (e.g. Window.is_skip_taskbar in GNOME
requires unsafe mode), so Electron is unable to support this feature on Linux.
