Niri bringt frischen Wind auf den #Linux-Desktop: Der Tiling-Wayland-Compositor reiht Fenster wie Perlen auf eine Schnur und lässt schnell horizontal hindurchscrollen. Flinke Tastensteuerung, wenig Ballast und eine optionale Desktop-Shell machen aus Niri eine elegante Desktop-Alternative. Läuft bei mir jetzt seit einigen Wochen und gefällt mir sehr.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@diegoaep/116493998055071198

Parece ser que será trabajo extenso. Actualmente mi OS está un poco lleno de Bloatware porque como instalé arch a mano siendo noob, puede que haya agregado 2 o 3 cosas innecesarias y ahora no se cuales puedo o no desinstalar.

Así que el paso 1 será crear una lista de todo lo que hace funcionar correctamente mi SO y otra de lo que puedo desechar por completo, para luego buscar las alternativas de Wayland y seguir teniendo un SO funcional.

Llevo algún tiempo usando i3wm, la verdad que he notado la diferencia que tiene de un Entorno de Escritorio así que no pienso abandonar los Window Managers.

Sin embargo, he estado viendo movimiento en torno a Wayland, creo que es tiempo de probarlo y ver si tiene diferencias notables a Xorg para mí. Así que pronto estaré instalando Sway, espero no romper nada.🤣

Wer hat damals auch so lange in compiz Fusion rum gebastelt bis der Bildschirm schwarz wurde und man die Distro neu installieren musste?

Das war mein Einstieg in Linux.
