Hey, @AvaddonLFC

I have done the same thing with Chrome profiles, and it has the same effect - starts with correct logo then changes.

I'm using ~/.local/share/applications. I tried this in FF and I don't see it working. Do you have a .desktop file you can share?

That would work for web application type of scenarios, like a YouTube wrapper I think. I'm looking for full blown browser profiles, treated as first class citizens / own application.

For now I decided it's been long enough and I should try Brave anyway, and haven't used Firefox in a few years. So I'll just use Brave for my personal stuff, Chrome for work, and Firefox for non-profit. If I fall in love with one so hard that the others annoy me, I'll just have to get used to disappointment I guess, or learn to code.

That said.. if anyone DOES know a way to do this in Wayland, I'm still interested. It looks like app-id is ignored by KDE, and so far as I can tell there's no good way to set it anyway. With web browsers being the absolutely dominant application through which most people interface with cloud applications these days, it's not uncommon to have multiple profiles with many tabs and different workflows. Based on the number of hits I get when researching this feature - absent in all major browsers on Plasma - it seems welcome.

I would say it's infuriating, but I think I use that word too much.

I have found numerous posts, however this one seems to want the same thing as me, and there have been a few others, all of which suggest it's not possible.

I can literally drag the shortcuts from the menu to the panel and produce unique icons that way, but when you click an icon that is NOT the chrome icon, it creates a new panel icon for the running program with the classic chrome icon anyway.

You are right, this is a cool idea. I'm digging into it. Might be more work than I want but the functionality is better.

Those are all options. I already use NoMachine to connect to a laptop that can use the VPN, but it occurs to me that literally the ONLY thing I use the laptop for that I couldn't just do on my host machine are those rare (like once a week or less) activities. It would be a lot more efficient workflow to just power off that laptop and connect to the VPN from the host, and turn it off when I'm done.

If I can't find a way to make it convenient, I think a little VM is probably the fastest / least intrusive option but kind of a sledgehammer for a finishing nail.

Using Connect right now. What I really care about is a Frontpage widget like RIF. I'm holding open real estate on the main screen of my Android. Basically the first dev to have that and a decently usable interface (bonus points for a "black" mode) gets the space :)

To answer my own question for future Lemmy students.

The work in the above question is absolutely doable, to degrees of satisfaction that will vary depending on your level of pickiness and how large an area you are trying to impact.

The area I was trying to lower totaled a bit over 100m blocks. This requires a lot of memory to accomplish. When I tried on my server with 6GB allocated, it crashed over and over. Following instructions I received from a dev on the Worldedit Discord:

You can use the //move command to move it, and //regen to regenerate the underground area after it's moved based on current MC generation You can also try disabling things like updates & neighbours in //perf Probably everything except lighting is fine to disable

With that advice combined with my own experimenting...

• Increase RAM to 24GB
• Disable autopause
• Disable backups
• Disable Coreprotect
• disable updates & neighbors in //perf

...I was able to move, about ~20m blocks at a time, the whole mess in about a half dozen operations, down 30 blocks from where it was. Entities did not move with the structure, most notably armor stands and item frames.

With the same considerations, I was able to "fill in" all the empty space down to -64 using //regen.

Now, while this was all happening, I got booted, the threads fell behind, could not reconnect, etc - but until I'd disabled a bunch of stuff and increased resources, the operations would not complete at all.

I hope this helps someone!

I used to take immodium for multi-day concerts where I expected to be drinking a lot of beer. Last time I did so, it worked so well that I didn't shit for two weeks and stopped being able to sleep. Had to get to the doctor for a powerful laxative cocktail that really messed up my guts for another two weeks during which I still could barely sleep for different reasons. I'm not getting that month back.
