Question: Support for Mac/Win devices

For plugins who uses:

static supportsDevice(device) {
      return device.os === 'Mac';
}

Was support for Mac or Win devices dropped in most recent Flipper? So far I’m only able to see iOS/Android devices, but no longer Mac device.

Yeah we thought about that in the past, but we didn’t find enough use cases initially to further invest in it, which is why the host device plugin is the most logical route now indeed 😃 Will look into making sure it shows up!

Yeah, internally we do use. But currently the reason why it uses Mac device is that we want to display this “device independent” plugin to appear only once and not clutter all connected devices. Would there be a good place for “static” plugins? Which are still handy for developers to be inside Flipper, but doesn’t require any device to be used.
