• I hope I'm not missing anything obvious, but connecting Bangle.js 2 to the browser IDE under Linux via Bluetooth consistently takes twenty minutes of fiddling, and I never know what I've done that finally makes it work. On the other hand, I almost never have trouble connecting with my phone. I've read and followed the instructions on the various Bluetooth pages, and I've dived into bluetoothctl and other tools, but nothing seems to improve the situation. I'm running Chrome under Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS.

    Does anyone have a magic incantation that makes connecting to the IDE under Linux quick?

    I've been having a great time hacking my Bangle, but twenty minutes of fiddling is a lot, especially now that I'm writing code that needs GadgetBridge features that aren't supported in the emulator.

    Thanks for any suggestions.
