2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    If dmenu was made by a nazi I wouldn't give a shit because its just dmenu but hyprland is so clearly made by a pack of /g/ zoomers who want their desktops to look like 1337 haXors without any access to the low level systems. Its all discord script kiddie hype-beasts.

    Its a tiling window manager made by people who never used a tiling window manager on X11. I know I'm sounding like an elitist boomer but this shit really violates some core Unix principals of making small composable utilities that empower the user. RiverWM or Sway keep to this philosophy.

    too bad the guy behind hyprland is a shitty little nazi twerp

    [–] y0kai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago

    It's open source right? Can't a new maintainer just fork it and tell the Nazi to punch himself?

    issue is, so many things have been called transphobic, from mere personal opinions to accidents to actual transphobia, i just can't trust a blanket "foo is transphobic" comment.

    Who is joining communities for window managers?

    Whoa that GH issue is pretty bad. What a bunch of babies.

    It's software with no opinion.

    Meh. Does it do anything KDE can't?

    Well, yes, but that's besides the point since they're totally different types of software. KDE can also do a shit ton of things that Hyprland can't, and isn't expected to ever try doing.

    Old β‰  bad

    Personally I don't need fancy. I need stability. If it ain't broken, don't fix it, and I haven't experienced issues with Xorg... But then again, I ditched Ubuntu in 2012 because they switched to that awful search bar launcher doohickey, so I might be a dinosaur in this regard.

    If it ain’t broken

    But it is...

    I still have (or rather had) some screen-tearing somewhere. I very much have annihilated that issue with settings in X11 (though some application somewhere still has issues, be it the video player). And it just feels clunky non the less.

    Although I'm currently not using Hyprland, it really feels nice to use, really flowy. I'm currently testing COSMIC (which is reasonably still in alpha, as I got issues with *** nvidia, like suspend sometimes hangs the computer).

    That said, I think it's still ok to wait until the whole ecosystem is well supported in wayland, and *** nvidia finally got their wayland shit together.

    Tried using Wayland recently, but alas, my Nvidia GPU holds me back once again.

    [–] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago

    My laptop has a 3050 in it running Garuda Linux under Wayland and its been working well without any fuss. I tried bazzite but the drivers put me on the struggle bus... It never would leave "hybrid mode" and trying to play a game just wouldn't touch the dgpu so performance would be igpu trash mode.

    I'd love to know what is different between garuda and bazzite to try to get bazzite to work as I did really like it, but it eluded me. I guess my point is that you might have better luck trying a different distro unfortunately. It feels like there are enough variables that what works for me may not for you and vice versa.

    [–] Lyricism6055@lemmy.world 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

    I've been on bazzite for awhile with a 3090 and it runs pretty great.

    Maybe give that a shot if possible

    Problems arise with old NVIDIA cards (up to Kepler)

    [–] Lyricism6055@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

    Yeah, definitely not perfect... I hope nvk fixes some of this eventually

    Nvk will work on the older cards right?
