PlexSheep, to linuxmemes in Wayland vs X11 be like

You’re right, I didn’t think of that. Cinnamon sadly is X11 for now.

Yup, lmde

PlexSheep, (edited ) to linux in My first year using Linux: My experience

For me, vim is easier to use than vscode and nano. Our experiences don’t reflect that of the majority.

PlexSheep, to linux in My first year using Linux: My experience

I use all 3, they serve different purposes. GIMP is image Manipulation (it’s in the name), Krista is drawing, and inkscape is designing stuff and svgs.

PlexSheep, to linux in what caused you to get into Linux?

Had an old laptop which ran horribly slow on windows. Put Ubuntu on it without knowing anything about that stuff. Years later, I got interested in computer science and Cybersecurity, made some experiences with Kali Linux. Eventually switched my desktop to Linux mint iirc. My servers tun Debian

That old laptop? I used it for the first months of Cybersecurity lectures, until I bought a new laptop with my first salary. This weekend I put LMDE 6 on it. Debian is home.

Pipewire is amazing, especially when used to make music with it!

PlexSheep, to linux in ADWSteamGTK makes steam look more inline with GTK

Apperently it’s just an installer for some steam skin? I didn’t even know skins were a thing. It looks pretty amazing through.

PlexSheep, to linux in GIMP 3.0 finally has a release schedule

Makes sense, gimp is the gnu image Manipulation Program.

PlexSheep, to linux in A response to the "Boycott Wayland" article

Good post.

Despite all the progress in terms of Wayland, I still find my laptop to be unstable with plasma + Wayland on fedora 38. Many visual bugs, when the screensaver is entered and I move my mouse again, the screen just stays black until I close and open the lid.

Some booting and spontaneous shutdown issues too, but I assume that’s something else. (Framework 12 DIY)

PlexSheep, to linuxmemes in Text editor war

In the world of text editors, VIM, specifically NeoVim is the shining light. Standing at the pinnacle of creation at a height that can only be reached by zealous emacs users.

They have a learning curve through. Nano is obviously easier, but it’s also just a basic editor.

:x

PlexSheep, to linux in TIL

Pretty sure it’s not. I saw something on this topic a few weeks ago but can’t quite remember. Iirc, it was a term in an early early OS, where a bit in memory was the privilege but and could be set or unset by turning a real wheel on the computer. This Stück with some people developing UNIX, so they called the wheel group wheel, but none of them are sure who came up with this.

Of course, this is just hearsay.

PlexSheep, to linuxmemes in Distros bad

Windows is having coffee delivered. It’s cold since days now.

PlexSheep, to linux in A response to the "Boycott Wayland" article

Scaling is one of the major things that suck. Probably on xorg too through. And especially with multiple screens in different ratios and uncommon ratios (like the frameworks 2:3 one)
