TIL: there’s a thing named #DankLinux, which is “a complete desktop shell for #niri, #Hyprland, #MangoWC, #Sway, #labwc, #Scroll, #MiracleWM, and other #Wayland compositors”. This might be a quick and easy way to get all the little details working out of the box, and to get a consistent look’n’feel as a bonus.

(EDIT: oh, and it’s based on #QuickShell.)

Alors comme j'aime bien me faire du fun avec #labwc sur #lxqt pour des sessions minimales en ressources (mais pas trop lol) sur Linux, je me suis fait mon premier projet et donc mes fichiers de configuration sur Github.

J'ai rapidement publié un fichier à lire en anglais mais d'ici la fin de la journée, Molière sera au rendez-vous.

Et éventuellement, je vais regarder du côté de #codeberg pour le futur et surtout le #foss .

A+! 🐧   🤟🏼😎

#linux

Je n'utilise plus vraiment #ubuntu mais pour tester une session #wayland avec #Lubuntu , Pourquoi pas? 😉 🐦

Le tout est fluide et donne dans les marges d'utilisation de ressources de 1Gb comme pour les autres Distros avec lequel j'ai essaye le meme combo #lxqt avec #labwc pour le compositeur.

Deux choses l'une:

1) Si je continue tant a essayer labwc, il serait tant de me concocter mon parametrage sur Github genre...

2) Firefox en #snap sur Ubuntu? Au moins il reste Falkon 😃

A+!

Messing around with Waydog Trixie in a VM.

First impressions are positive. I like the initial welcome greeter that asks some questions about start up.

This week's Linux and FOSS news:

LINUX NEWS

Colorado and California age verification bills exempt open source operating systems:
https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/05/colorado-and-california-age-verification-bills-exempt-open-source-operating-systems/
(Good to see some win in this front, although other laws like the US federal law and the Brazilian one don't exclude FOSS so the problem still exists)
(Also, as Switched to Linux pointed out in his video, the Colorado bill is still a bit vague regarding whether restrictive copyleft licenses like GPL are excluded: https://odysee.com/@switchedtolinux:0/bill-passed-foss-carve-out-in-colorado:f)

System76 changed their stance, won't include any age attestation/verification in Pop!_OS and COSMIC:
