What would you like to see?

Request to change the behavior of the “X” button in the AnythingLLM Desktop app on MacOS. Instead of closing the app, the button should minimize it to the system tray, allowing it to run in the background. This change will enhance user experience, particularly when using the web browser plugin, by maintaining seamless data transfer without needing to relaunch the app. Adding this feature will streamline the workflow and improve overall usability.
