All around computer nerd from Las Vegas.
CachyOS KDE and Librewolf on desktop. GrapheneOS and Ironfox on mobile.
Longtime game enjoyer. Almost always X4: Foundations, Stellaris, or World of Warcraft Classic these days.
So I had some more time this week and gave #hyprland on #cachyos another go.
I'm still adjusting to it and there are *so* many things that still need fiddling with in order to make myself at home, but the important part is that I can actually do normal computing things with minimal fuss now. Sticking around and simply using it will teach me a lot and I'll be able to really see whether I can run this as a daily driver for the long term.
Given what I've learned so far, the gears are turning on how to improve the experience for myself.
The potential is obviously there I just need to see if I can configure it in a way that agrees with my rigid mindset of what a desktop experience should be.
My initial foray into Hyprland had me strike a harder wall than I was expecting.
The configuration is simple enough so that wasn't an issue. It was more like the way you're expected to operate the desktop was wholly different than the way I've done it for decades now. I'm fine with the keyboard being the primary navigator but don't like that the mouse feels completely crippled as an input device.
