#xmonad — Public Fediverse posts

Was mache ich da? Ich verbessere weiter meine #Xmonad Konfiguration!

Für Gaming kann ich nun mit Mod+F das Dock ausblenden. Was sonst noch zu tun ist, ist dass ich mein Esc+Capslock-Swap rückgängig machen muss. Einige Games nutzen Capslock.

Said goodbye to #XMonad today on my development machine. It's been a good run, but #Wayland is coming to replace #XServer and it doesn't look like XMonad is coming to the other side.

So far feeling fairly okay with #Niri, though of course the beginning is always stumbly and I've yet to drive it in an actual workflow. And many of the keybinding defaults are some flavour of disaster in my locale, but that's a given with a lot of tech. Little bit at a time, this will become more usable. Especially after I also finally ditch the big tech OS on my daily driver later this week. This whole smaller migration was a preliminary task for that.

xmonad-de #release A simple "desktop environment" made with #xmonad and polybar https://codeberg.org/dinofp/xmonad-de #linux #debian #linux_mint #haskell

I have a tiling window manager with only 52 lines of code to be (in my view) perfect, efficient and stable.

#XMonad

The computer is a tool to assist you on your workflow.

Whatever you have, you ironed out to work smoothly.

To change to the newest (some still with unresolved issues) does not make sense.

A stable and efficient workflow is the first priority, at least, for me.

Currently working on getting #Xmonad to play nice on #LinuxMint. I have been able to do this very successfully on Ubuntu but so far having some trouble on Mint. The goal is Xmonad plus other tools (polybar, dunst, blueman, etc...) as the only DE. Very lean.

@lhp @tfb
I've used #Xmonad for years. I used named scratchpads for all things transient.
They actually live on another desktop that is usually hidden. They can be anything, a terminal, htop, a repl, conky, rofi, whatever.
They can be invoked and dismissed with a keystroke and they float above the tiles.

I have yet to find a tiling window manager that is as capable as xmonad. I keep trying to like i3. But it just doesn't measure up.

@Erdrandbewohner Die korrekte Distri ist übrigens #gentoo mit #xmonad als WM. Nur, falls sich jemand fragen sollte... ^^

@BujakiewiczFranco I have to ask about what #xmonad alternatives are you considering (assuming you will switch to #wayland).

Any #XMonad folks know why I see a border flash around windows when they lose focus, in spite of noBorders? It happens when switching tabs or changing workspaces... and it's normalBorderColor if that helps. I'm new to XMonad and loving it and this has stumped me this morning.

I was on XMonad for years. Excellent Tiling WM.

Trying Niri on Wayland.

🎩🤓 Oh, the thrill of a keyboard warrior's epic quest from #i3wm to #Gnome and then a valiant return to XMonad! 🖥️⚔️ Because mastering endless dotfiles and tiling WMs is the true path to enlightenment, or at least a fun way to procrastinate. 😂💻

As a follow-up, while those showcases are silly, I gotta admit, I'm liking #Hyprland as a Wayland compositor. I deeply missed #Xmonad when I made the jump to Wayland (mainly for hidpi/fractional scaling on my Framework 13) and Hyprland lets me do all the things I did with Xmonad, but often easier and definitely prettier.

#XLibre runs on #GNUGuix. Seen below:

OK, da denkt man sich: Alle populären #tiling Windowmanager für #Wayland haben das eine oder das andere Problem. Viele sind unmaintained, Sway hat dieses manuelle tiling von i3, Hyprland hat einen Hauptentwickler... Ich will doch nur ein #xmonad für Wayland...

Also selbst schreiben? Gibt es Pythonbindings für wlroots? Au ja, pywlroots. Wo werden die genutzt? qtile! Ein aktiv entwickelter #Python basierter an xmonad angelehnter tiling Windowmanager für Wayland 🤔

Ich bin dann mal #qtile testen 😅

Still funny to see how it triggers people when I say that I use #XMonad and #Vim :D

🚀 #XMonad devs have spent two years collecting coins in a jar, only to realize they need a hero to #rescue them from their own #Wayland ineptitude. 😅 With a project as stale as grandma's cookies, they're now shouting into the void for a savior. 🦸‍♂️

Xmonad seeking help for Wayland port

Four nights of pure #Haskell XMonad.Hooks.Modal and xmobar horror but now I can use #XMonad like #Vim :cyberheart_pink:

:crt_w_prompt: My #XMonad modal configuration works (after many hours of work). A few small adjustments are still missing but they are manageable. Completely new operating concept - let's go!
