For me, the hardest part of getting a new computer is deciding what to run on it. I was tempted to play with #cachyos, but have decided to stick with a #fedora base. But, which spin? I want to give #niri a try, so maybe fedora server + niri or Sway spin + niri. Also new to me is this is my first exposure to Intel Arc graphics.
Oh wow. Mastodon rocks. @YaLTeR is on here! I get the feeling from your github docs that you run a Fedora base for your Niri development. Which spin are you starting with?
@36pickledeggs just regular workstation (or Silverblue in my case)
@YaLTeR
Hmmm... I don't know if I can get myself to install the gnome spin. I have a somewhat irrational disgust for the gnome wm, even if I would not be using it directly. Maybe I'll risk it and try adding Niri to the Sway spin. And maybe even Sway Atomic. I still have not played with that. But, I could always fall back to Silverblue if it turns out to be a mess.
@YaLTeR
I see you are working on your PhD. Is Niri part of your thesis?
