Một lập trình viên đã ra mắt slop, một chương trình quản lý hiển thị (display manager) tối giản, thay thế cho getty và login. slop tập trung vào sự đơn giản, chỉ hiển thị thông tin cần thiết cho việc xác thực. Các tính năng nổi bật: chạy lệnh tùy chỉnh khi đăng nhập thành công (startx), xóa màn hình sau khi đăng nhập thất bại, đặt trước tên người dùng. Hữu ích cho ai muốn trải nghiệm đăng nhập TTY tinh gọn.

@peppe thaks man... it feels good, as I'm on the suck train for a while now 😅

Since I've switched themes, LightDM stopped working, and I can't log in until I first log in on an other TTY in text mode... Apparently opening the #LightDM greeter settings app screwed everything up? Now I'm looking for an alternative, but nothing else seem to support a "switch user" type feature?

#justLinuxThings I guess...

smh

A new #Video https://youtu.be/f57rGhBm3Vk for your #cats on #Debian 12.6 #Server and with #GnomeDesktop 43.9 has been #performance #benchmarked and is ranked 23rd in the #DesktopEnvironment #OperatingSystem #TierList. The bundled #GnomeDesktopEnvironment, #Mutter #WindowManager, and #GDM #DisplayManager all appear to be 1-2 year old versions of the #software. The server performance with 280M Memory Usage, 0 CPU Load, and 1.8G Disk Usage, and 11 second reboot time are not the best.

The #Desktop #OperatingSystem #Benchmark Tier List has been updated on https://everybytecounts.org/ for December 2024 dates. Notably #TinyDM #DisplayManager used by #PostMarketOS, doesn't appear to have any updates in the repository for a year. #EnlightenmentWM #WindowManager has activity in the repository, but no new release for a year. #KWin #WM has newer releases, hopefully #AlpineLinux 3.21 (in days/weeks) will have a newer version.

New #Video on #Cinnamon 6.0.4 #DesktopEnvironment on #NixOS 24.05 performance benchmark https://youtu.be/ef18PbWWHe4. Ranked 36 on https://EveryByteCounts.org. While the performance is better than #LinuxMint, it is worse than #HannahMontanaLinux. Unfortunately both Mint and NixOS use the #LightDM #DisplayManager which Canonical abandoned 2 years ago. 617MB Memory Usage, 0.68 CPU Load, 7.1GB Disk Usage and 20 second Reboot time are all poor performance metrics compared to other options.
