While #bitwig runs perfectly on #niri on my studio computer with a 32" 4k display, it hits a (patchable, but ugly) issue on my 16" 4k laptop.
Bitwig appears to handle mouse pointer scaling entirely on its own and seems to ignore the environment variables the WM/DE passes through.
As a result, on my laptop's 2x-scaled 4K 16:10 display, the cursor becomes gigantic and can only be fixed with a somewhat forceful patch script (which I haven't applied yet): https://github.com/MintyDoggo/bitwig-cursor-fix/tree/main

Okay, who can tell me how to run android apps on my linux desktop in 2026 without making me move my desktop to wayland?I'll give 10 points to whoever answers this first with a pointer to a practical method.

I've just merged a PR to cow which adds the ability to define aliases for commands/scripts in cow. For example:
alias terminal exec xterm
bind L+return terminalOr something more exotic:
alias tidy-desktop script {
winops -F 'self.current_desk and self.iconified' -I
focus -n -w
}menu-add RootMenu "Tidy desktop" tidy-desktop
Enjoy! This should cut down on duplication even more.
