It's Wednesday here in Danang, time to get the sundries out there!
Hot off the press:
- The latest Librewolf (according to their git updated 3 hrs ago)
- Brave Origin of course

- A new addition: Vivaldi!

There is an excellent Sbo pkg for that, made by one of the Vivaldi maintainers. But if you just want an installable Slackware pkg, you can find it in this repo; I switched back to Vivaldi myself also.

As a consequence Brave-Origin will be discontinued by me at the end of June 2026.

Yep. Did it again. Couldnt have done it without this excellent guide, which is a write-up of a just as excellent YT video. This guy delivers and I really enjoyed setting this up yesterday: Fedora, btrfs, snapper, luks2 encryption. Obviously I changed something and used the Cosmic desktop for this experiment. Recommended!

My two cents on the new Hyprland:
Hypr, hypr, bring out the mango 🥭 !

Hypr, Hypr, bring out the Mango

All this Hyprland stuff in which I was also genuinely interested (lua! shiny & new!) has become totally superfluous for me. About two years ago Hyprland ...

What the? Vivaldi 8.0 is incredible.

So nice not having AI integrated, I could use this in place of Firefox with no issues.

@jloc0 Yeah, after that first go I went all in on OpenBox and landed on ArchLabs, where I met @nwgpiotr, who was doing his first Sway magic. And he picked up on Hyprland very quickly. Since I wanted to go in on Wayland I used his toolkit pretty extensively, mostly with Hyprland. That's how I ran into you; the rest is greybeard history 😂

Bug hunting 101: for some obscure reason Spectacle wasn't working in Slim 6.7. (Re)install tesseract and leptonica (available in your repo anyway), all good!
It's always the user that effs something up 😆

It's difficult to grasp, perhaps. But that you build your own dwm, and just schlepp it around with you, remains unbeatable.

For posterity. The distro I ran the longest was ArchLabs, for 18 months. Epic!
Next month it will finally be surpassed. Then i've been running Slackware KDE by @jloc0 for a grand total of 19 months. Thanks mate 🍻 !
