#yakuake — Public Fediverse posts

I’m going back to #Yakuake as my main #terminal app. For a longish while it had problems with global shortcut keys under #Wayland meaning it could only be activated if it already had the focus, but now everything seems to be all right again. Farewell #Alacritty, you are an excellent terminal emulator, but Yakuake is just always “there” at my fingertip. #KDEPlasma #KDE #FLOSS #Linux

Ist ja Irre!
#kittyterminal liefert auch gleich ein dropdown #terminal mit, wie z.B. #guake oder #yakuake eins ist.
"quick-access-terminal" ist das Stichwort bzw. der Befehl. Hierfür kann man auch eine extra config anlegen.

My #MSI laptop's #touchpad has some issues. Does anyone know how to solve this?

Irgendwie kann ich mich mit #Yakuake nicht so recht anfreunden. Ich verwende lieber die "normale" #Konsole ...

#Linux #KDE

I have fixed my first #KDE bug, a #Yakuake one that's been so annoying it's driven me to fix it myself. Unfortunately, fixing it has exposed a second bug, so it probably wouldn't get merged on its own, and now this second bug appears to involve something outside the Yakuake codebase itself :(

Today I learned that having a #4Kmonitor and a standard #HDTV (1920×1080) in a dual-monitor setup with 150% scaling will seriously confuse #KDEPlasma. #Dolphin windows open up with weird varying font sizes and #Yakuake refuses to recognize either the size or the position settings in a sane way.

Fortunately the TV serves only as a temporary secondary display for tomorrow’s #Teams meeting, then it will go.

#ALT4you: an image with the question "What"s your preferred terminal emulator?" and the picture of a fat penguin with a baseball cap on his head and his arms on his hips. It could also have been just a text.

I kinda wish #Yakuake could have a single shortcut to flip between terminals, whether they are tabs or panes. As it is now (IIRC), you have one shortcut for flipping between tabs, and another for flipping between panes.

#KDE #Plasma

@itsfoss #zsh* on #yakuake

*) used to be #bash, but I take whatever's the system standard - doesn't really matter for my purposes

Something I miss from #Tiling wms/compositors like #i3wm and #sway when I'm on #KDE:

I use #Yakuake on KDE #Plasma to have a terminal that's easily accessible, but stays out of my way when I don't want to see it.

On tiling setups, I use disappearing windows (I forget the actual name of the feature) that will pop up when I hit super+-, appear one at a time, and then disappear.

Yakuake lets you do tiling as well within its window, but I kinda miss the ability to cycle through a bunch of windows very easily. I mean, I've got the keyboard shortcuts set up very nicely, so it's just F12 to make the window appear and disappear, and then control+tab to cycle through tabs or control+pgup/pgdown to jump between panes, but somehow the tiling setup is just a bit easier to do. Less thinking, just super+-. ;)

I don't know if I'll continue to use tiling setup too much longer, though. It's too aggravating to figure out how to get the occasional gnome program to work properly. There's always some kind of fancy library initialization that I fail to get right. It's easier to just use a DE and whittle it down to nearly tiling levels of productivity.

:BlobCatDerpy:

One thing I wish I was able to do with #iTerm2 is to configure the HotKey Window to slide down from the top right (or top left) rather than the middle. Yakuake lets you do that. I don't like my terminal to sit in the middle of my screen.

A workaround is to use the "right of screen" style, and it's not bad. Still not as flexible as Kakuake.

#macOS #iTerm2 #Yakuake

Das "Runter-roll-Terminal" Yakuake mag ich und nutze es häufiger. Statt F12 habe ich es daher auf Alt+Y gelegt:

#terminl #linux #yakuake

Is there a #TerminalEmulator that has #Konsole's bookmarks and #Yakuake's drop-down function?

I mostly just run the same handful of commands in the same two folders, so that's basically all I want.
#Linux #KDE #PleaseImJustATechnicalWriter

new work laptop has co-pilot key. which is now mapped to drop down my yakuake terminal

#copilot #yakuake #kde #linux

#yakuake in #Debain 12 is driving me nuts. It keeps ignoring the the config and starting on screen 1 even though the config clearly says screen 2.

Really dig my current desktop environment:

- #KDE plasma 6 base on #nixos
- #karousel kwin script for scrolling tiled window management
- #yakuake for a drop down terminal with #nushell

Anyone runs something similar? Feels like I finally found a perfect sweet spot between productivity and freedom.

@kali #Yakuake?

mucho se habla del #DistroHopping pero ¿qué me dicen del #TerminalHopping o #ShellHopping?

yo por ejemplo he tocado #GnomeTerminal, #Terminator, #guake, #yakuake, #kitty y #alacritty que recuerde. Pasé un largo tiempo usando #Guake hasta que extrañé mi tecla F12 y decidí usar un área de trabajo completa solo para el terminal, como hago ahora.

De shells he pasado casi toda mi vida en #bash y llegué a tocar #zsh y otras raras pero ahora soy feliz en #fish

¿y ustedes?

Terminál sestřelen. Ničemu to nevadí, ale hlásit se to musí

I forgot how good #yakuake is and how much I've missed having it in my life.

#kdeplasma #kde #plasma

#yakuake is now available in #flatpak form! One less package to layer!

#kinoite #ostree #kde #kdegear

I really wish there was some way of making #KDE #Plasma #Yakuake give you two windows or more.

...so I could have a top window for random stuff, and a side window for my todo.txt :D

How did I possibly forget about #Yakuake?
What an awesome little terminal. :D

@david #yakuake é vida!

It's a small win, getting my #logitech mx3 running on #kubuntu tonight with buttons all working between virtual desktops and #yakuake
