Fixes #8229
This PR:
Mac
because it was not spawned in the main thread.Regarding the note in
mac_event_loop
: the asyncio main thread blocks while the tray icon context menu is open. I assume nobody will keep their menu open, but should they do so their Tribler core won't do anything anymore. Even so, it would be nice to fix that in the future. For now, I think this is better than nothing.The choice for
asyncio.sleep(0.01)
instead ofasyncio.sleep(0)
was because the latter chokes up the core. With0.01
, the core seems unaffected.
