#leftwm — Public Fediverse posts

Emotional roller-coaster of the day:

• 🎉 finding a new tiling window manager (yay!) : #LeftWM
• 😱 it has a non-standard configuration format (#RON)
• 🦀 it’s written in #RustLang (blazingly fast!)
• 😭 it’s designed for #XOrg, not #Wayland.

Oh well. Maybe next time.

@aks I have a very simple setup. Nothing to see really.

• WM: #leftwm
• Distro: #arch
• Background: My creation with #krita created long long years ago, and still using it.
• At the top I have #polybar with a lot of extra custom scripts
• Terminal: #alacritty
• Shell: fish (moved from zsh recently)

LeftWM config: https://git.efertone.me/efertone/config-leftwm

https://everybytecounts.org OS #benchmarks updated for 2023.11 with #Spectrwm and #LXQt on Alpine #Linux, and LeftWM on NixOS becoming 1year old. They were not removed since they will be updated in the next #OS release next month. It would be great if the #Rustlang based #LeftWM was added to #AlpineLinux, but not had luck with requests. #Q4OS 5.4 23.11 was removed. If there's interest for 5.6 to be tested, a new issue can be submitted https://github.com/crftbt/EveryByteCounts.org/issues. Does Q4OS not have a public #code #repo?

"One of the items I wanted to cover was, would it be possible for us to enable experimental tiling contributions to do different types of layouts"

I actually encapsulated the window tiling calculations of LeftWM into a separate Rust library last year. The reason was that I wanted to implement the layouts independent of the display server so that it could be reused for wayland, or any other Rust project that wants to implement window tiling.

It sounds like this could be of interest to them.

@mnemonix que tal te va con #LeftWM ? Como es la experiencia?

Während in Villabajo noch geschrubbt wird, wird in Villariba schon wieder gefeiert!

Ich mag #voidlinux sehr, aber teilweise wird Software spät aktualisiert. #leftwm und #wayfire haben immer noch Monat(e) alten Versionsstand.
Da sind viele andere Distributionen flotter unterwegs.

Wahrscheinlich hat void ein sehr kleines Team.

#linux

guess i should probably make an #introduction

im luna, my town's local annoying linux user. also apparently the only #leftwm user? anyways, im a recent FRC alumni, i love TTRPGs, old tech, and video games, and i am quite gay. currently trying to figure out how to fulfill that need to program now that FRC is over lol, but i imagine that contributing to #FOSS and going to college for computer engineering will keep me plenty occupied there.

Spent the day wrapping my head around #nixos.
Managed to get it running with #i3wm in virtualbox, but still failing with #leftWM.
Yet to figure out #nixFlakes, as it seems to be THE thing now and move to real hardware.
What's running on your local NixOS?

Lo que empezó como una prueba ahora es mi día a día: #Leftwm es totalmente estable para su uso en casa y oficina. totalmente recomendado! (y más si lo usas en #archlinux

#DE #WM #Linux

Me he pasado de #i3 a #leftwm en menos de 5 minutos... se nota la diferencia (y mucho) de que me gusta mas usar tiling WMs en lugar de los tradicionales

...Desktopumgebung installieren. So funktioniert jetzt der Lockscreen, Ruhezustand/Bereitschaft und das auch automatisch im Akkubetrieb. Geile Sache das und erspart viel frickelei. #linux #leftwm

Switched to leftwm on one of my old laptops too. Blueish instead of the green I use to go for.

I still enjoy leftwm with polybar on this machine.
#arch #leftwm #polybar

imac dual displays (home studio): #arcolinux #leftwm #polybar #reaper

laptop: #arcolinux #leftwm #polybar ssh to #pinephone #mobian

Got inspired after watching @derek DT's video on leftwm. I have now played a few minutes with polybar and xmobar. I Like it! Will probably continue try get it look better and fix some keybindings etc... #sundayfun #leftwm #polybar #xmobar
