Describe the bug
The pomatez.desktop file contained in the .deb package contains "Productivity" in the Categories section. This is an invalid value, the only accepted values are specified here.
This causes the application to fall under an undefined category on desktop environments like Xfce.
I would suggest changing it to "Utility".

Desktop

  • OS: Debian Testing
  • App Version: 1.1.0
  • Installer Used: .deb Package

Snap package supports that category but yeah I will create a separate category for non-snap users ASAP but still I would suggest using the snap version to be updated as always when there's a bug fixed of new features added.

I would also consider changing it to Utility as it better describes the general use of it that would match other programs.

As seen on Manjaro it shows under "Other" due to the category
image

Though the list is only a suggested one as not all categories are guaranteed to be on that site I can confirm that they will at least have those categories.

This is specifically from the snap install.

Ill have to check the next update.
