I do not have and addiction problem, you have a problem with my addiction.
Have you tried niri yet? What about river?
Is it too much to ask for the days when my system was nothing but a prompt in which I may or may not type “startx”?
That’s what I’ve got (on Gentoo).
I’m at the point in my Linux journey where I have settled into a stable system, configured 99.9% how I want it. Seeing diminishing returns on effort put into tweaking it. But I just keep looking at window managers. I have people who need me in the world but I just can’t stop looking at them. I don’t know what to do.
Every year or so I fire up a VM, install a window manager on it, realize I have no idea WTF I’m doing, and nuke the VM and go back to my regular KDE desktop.
Do not worry I’m daily driving a window manager and still do not know what I’m doing.
As someone that pretty much had to use WMs before full DEs came out: fuck WMs.
I like the funny mouse one
So true. Sway forever.
I love Sway, but Hyprland’s special workspace thing is just so damn good.
Yeah but Hyprland window groups tend to eat each other with the dwindle layout
what do you mean by eat each other?
If you have two groups, and you accidentally start dragging a window (assuming you use the mouse at all, which I do) Hyprland will drag the entire group and merge it with the one it’s hovering.
Now, imagine someone coming from Sway, who is used to rearranging individual windows by simply dragging them around without having to explicitly move them out of containers…
Hyprland wiki has detailed config options for this
You are a legend. I must’ve not understood what you meant. Thanks for your contribution. I also apologise for not checking before answering.
Meh, hyprland devs and community are known for being toxic, specially with minorities. Can’t use because of this :/
I don’t see the toxicness on my desktop
How is it relevant to using the wm in your desktop?
I just don’t want to feel complacent to the devs and the community actions.
