Hier mal wieder ein mehr oder weniger sinnvoller Distro-Vergleich: Wie viel #RAM benötigen Distros direkt nach dem Start?
Es laufen: #sway, foot und htop (zum messen). Ich habe die Distros schon so optimiert, dass möglichst wenig Hintergrunddienste und überall möglichst die gleichen Dienste laufen (NetworkManager, CUPS, sshd)

#Void Linux: 288M
#antiX 26 (mit dinit): 294M
#Debian 13: 341M
#openSuse #Tumbleweed: 355M
#FunOS (Ubuntu) 25.10: 395M
#Fedora 43: 415M

# Full size window on Gnome desktop

There is a todo item on my list that takes the record for staying the longest:

- Setup Sway

For a while now, I wanted to give Sway a (S)way. Sway is a window manager where you use your keyboard to move windows and adjust their size.

Full size window on Gnome desktop

There is a todo item on my list that takes the record for staying the longest: Setup Sway For a while now, I wanted to give Sway a (S)way. Sway is a window manager where you use your keyboard to move windows and adjust their size.

I have been daily driving #Sway on #OpenBSD for about a week now. So far very decent, but crashes on startup from time to time. I think it's worth noting that I'm using greetd. All sway-related tools work and even got Waybar and Fuzzel too. I tried cagebreak briefly but didn't like the whole esc'ing thing before every bind.

@mauro

I had been on #i3wm over Ubuntu for maybe five years, maybe more. Last month I bought a new laptop and decided it was time to move to Wayland because, well, it's the future and, like when Python 3 replaced Python 2, there's no point in staying where I feel comfortable.

The initial plan was installing #Sway over #Tuxedo OS, but I found that I could not use it as I was using i3, so I have been trying the default #KDE #Plasma over the past weeks. It looks like it will become my home 🙂

Who decided to pull off a hack, and it was faster and more satisfying than they thought? Huh? 😁

#Linux #Waydroid #Xorg #Wayland #Sway

In meiner swaybar (die Leiste, die #sway haben kann), habe ich ein Scratchpad, das isr der Bereich, in den ich alle Fenster werfen kann, die ich momentan nicht sehen will.
Die Bar wird von einem Shellskript gebastelt, das für das Scratchpad diese Funktion hat:

get_scratchpad() { windows=$(swaymsg -t get_tree | jq -r ' .. | objects | select(.name? == "__i3_scratch") | .floating_nodes[] | (.app_id // .window_properties.class // .name) | if test("^\\..*\\.bin$") then sub("^\\."; "") | sub("\\.bin$"; "") else . end ') if [ -z "$windows" ]; then echo "Scratchpad: empty" else echo "Scratchpad: $(echo "$windows" | paste -sd " ") |" fi }
Ergibt momentan:

Ohne #ChatGPT hätte ich das im Leben nicht hinbekommen, #jq ist zwar mächtig, aber auch hart.

note(ノート)

Let me get this straight: The only reason why I can't mirror my screens on most #wayland compositors is that wlr-output-management does not contain a property for screen mirroring?

Why is this not a feature????

I know wl-mirror exists but it's really not that good. The battery drain is real.

I use #Sway myself (and on #MiicroOS so I need to keep dependencies minimal) and so I was very happy when I discovered https://github.com/ammgws/autotiling-rs
