  4. 🪟 Hyprland 0.56 a fost lansat! Extindere masivă pentru scripting-ul Lua și layout-uri

    După mai bine de două luni de dezvoltare, popularul compositor Wayland bazat pe tiling primește o nouă versiune plină de funcționalități și îmbunătățiri.

    ✨ Principalele noutăți:

    📜 Scripting Lua avansat:
    • API-uri noi pentru gesturi live personalizate, starea tastaturii și gestionarea workspace-urilor pe monitoare
    • Un nou mod Lua REPL în hyprctl pentru testarea interactivă a comenzilor
    • API clear_crashed_lockscreen pentru recuperare facilă din blocaje ale ecranului de lock

    📐 Gestionare mai bună a layout-urilor:
    • Layout-ul scrolling primește opțiuni noi (fit_into_view, fit_expand, inhibit_scroll)
    • Layout-ul master adaugă setarea focus_master_on_close pentru a controla focusul după închiderea ferestrelor

    🎨 Ajustări vizuale și de funcționalitate:
    • Efectul de glow acceptă acum gradient-uri
    • Suport pentru drag-and-drop interactiv prin XDG (util pentru aplicațiile cu titluri decorate direct din client)
    • Câmp nou stableid: pentru regulile de ferestre și posibilitatea de a muta ferestrele silențios pe alt monitor

  11. My imagination:🙊

    In future,
    any terminal, browser, terminal multiplexers, window managers all will have a common UX pattern like
    1) Vertical or horizontal tabs
    2) tiling, scrollable tiling(like niri)
    etc etc for a similar UX for easier engagement and management.

    Taking the features of one from the other will bring this soon❤️

  15. So I did some fiddling around with KDE and managed to turn it into a really decent tiling WM using the Krohnkite KWin script.

    My main gripe with hyprland and the likes, plus all the panels like waybar, nwg-panels, hyprpanel etc. was their barebones nature and the complete lack of responsiveness - no useful context menus, barely any customisation unless you spend way too much time writing CSS and bash scripts, no integration with the rest of the system.

    Krohnkite solves that by giving you proper tiling inside an actual complete desktop environment.

    The only caveat is that you cannot shift focus from a window on one screen to a window on another screen, you have to use the "switch screen" combination instead, and I haven't found yet how to make the mouse cursor move to the window along with the focus.

  16. Dash to Dock just broke after the recent update, auto-hide doesn't always work.

    Quite annoying when the dock covers up the bottom of windows. But whatever, I uninstalled it.

    I plan to move to the tiling WM world anyways in the summer (because I want auto-tiling, which is only available on GNOME, KDE and COSMIC among the DEs afaik, but all will be Wayland-only soon, and I still need X11 because of a few minor things, although there's Sonic DE but who knows how much time it will take to arrive to Debian Stable, and I don't want to distrohop, also, I noticed some lag on GNOME recently, and some freezing once or twice, maybe my laptop is aging. KDE isn't more lightweight either, COSMIC is lighter, but it isn't as mature yet, it may also get heavier later on, as more things will be added), when I'll have more time to configure stuff, research how to do stuff and set up everything how I want it to work, etc., so it's time to slowly transition to that workflow anyways. (Phew, what a long sentence lol)

    I just use the built-in search of GNOME, press Super key and type the name of the program, the same way I'll probably do on a tiling WM.

    Actually I'll might also change my habits to hold Super key to drag windows, instead of grabbing their header.

    It's like when Windows users are told to try out programs which are also available on Linux, before actually switching to Linux lol.

    I left #dms pretty vanilla because it just looks great out of the box. That I could move the bar very, very easily to the left to fit better into my #niri workflow is superb as well.

  27. Been using #Linux as my daily driver for almost two years now. Still interact with #windows at work from time to time, could never go back to it for my own computer though!

    People need to understand that it can break from time to time, especially when you're using a Linux distro with a rolling release. if you're looking for something stable, try #debian.

    If you're looking for something more 'bleeding edge', I can't recommend #arch enough (obligatory 'I'm using arch btw'). You'll get

    - a great wiki with plenty of details, tutorials and explanations
    - a big user base
    - a system that is customizable to your needs
    - a system that lets you run up-to-date software

    Don't expect smooth sailing though. you will learn a lot during installation and setup. things that 'just work' on windows, might need you to tinker/research a bit on Linux. Things will break with updates because software dependencies might break when using more recent and not-so-battletested software.

    but it's a learning curve you wouldn't want to miss IMO. You'll need a weekend or so to set things up in an efficient way for you.

    I recommend checking out the various Desktop Environments available and see which one appeals to you. Been using #gnome #kde #xfce #hyprland and switched to #niri recently. It's just so efficient and the work flow is perfect for my needs.
