The combination of it being stonking hot and then raining has meant that I've achieved a lot less of the stuff I was hoping to do around the house before Christmas. But I have tweaked my #swaym installation and configured some nice #TUI widgets on the laptop […]

Fedora Sway 43 on a spare Beelink S12 with Neovim (NvChad). There's so much to configure and so many rabbit holes to jump into. May be worth writing a blog post about it later.
Let's see if I can escape all these rabbit holes first.

Saturday morning project: Install #NixOS with the latest #COSMIC DE on a spare Beelink S12 for a test drive. If it doesn't go well, I'll use #SwayWM instead.
Just more of an effort to get to know NixOS a little better.

I've updated sway2sway. The headless output is now removed when the connection is terminated (supported since #sway 1.8).

sway2sway is a simple shell script, acting as a x2x equivalent for sway. A keyboard and mouse connected to a primary computer running sway be used seamlessly on another […]

OK, so I found a bug in #FootTerminal that appears to cause it to miss characters coming from stdout. Either that, or a bug in... grep.
I'm busy right now, but I've taken screenshots and I might (really, should) get around to reporting this bug.

Nutzt hier jemand vielleicht #swaywm unter #linux ? Ich würde gerne #bitfocuscompanion in der sway config Datei starten. Habe das mit "exec" versucht. Leider startet da gar nichts. Dasselbe mit einer Startzeile für #rclone . Funzt nicht.

Trying out #xmonad instead of #swaywm (which means reverting to x11 from wayland). Don’t have anything against wayland but I miss the variety of window managers — I used xmonad for years (probably 2007–12) and I find I still prefer its tiling model to sway/i3’s.

Still some issues to sort out with

Me: Gonna get my system configured so that I'll be SO PRODUCTIVE!!

My boss a week later: So have you done $WORK_THING?

Making Flameshot work in Sway submitted by cm0002 to swaywm 1 points | 0 comments Author: @ExtremeDullard@lemmy.sdf.org > Flameshot is arguably the best Linux screenshot utility out there. Unfortunately, it has a really annoying issue: copy-to-clipboard doesn’t work in Wayland. Everything else works just great, but only being able to save screenshots to files totally breaks my workflow. > > Fortunately, there’s a way around this: Flameshot also has a `–raw` command line argument that makes it send whatever it captures to stdout. That means it’s really easy to pipe it to `wl-copy` to send the content to the Wayland clipboard. > > Here are a couple of key bindings that exploit this and make Flameshot work great in Sway: > > > bindsym $mod+Alt+F11 exec bash -c 'flameshot gui --raw 2> >(grep aborted || notify-send "Screenshot copied to the clipboard") | wl-copy' > bindsym $mod+Alt+F12 exec flameshot screen --raw | wl-copy && notify-send 'Screeshot copied to the clipboard' > > > Those command do require `notify-send` to be installed, which is supplied by different packages depending on your particular Linux distro. Debian has it in the `libnotify-bin` package. > > If you don’t want to install it, you can strip the fancy scripting and just define those two key bindings instead: > > > bindsym $mod+Alt+F11 exec flameshot gui --raw | wl-copy > bindsym $mod+Alt+F12 exec flameshot screen --raw | wl-copy > > > They work just as well, but they don’t notify you when the screenshot is copied to the clipboard or aborted, which can be disconcerting.

A screenshot of a sway desktop, customised with colourful gruvbox-tinted workspaces at left (complete with nerd font icons for each app), the window title at centre, and all sorts of notifications, weather, date, speaker slider, brightness slider, battery, network, and disk space symbols to the right.  The screen is split into two panes: the left has Tootle open with this thread, and the right has a foot terminal showing fastfetch with the postmarketos logo in ascii art.  The Host is listed as "Pine64 Pinebook Pro" running Linux 6.6.34 on a Rockchip rk3399-mali.  There's loads of other data but honestly I never read it in detail often.

Hmm I really don't want to keep using #gnome since it's just not for me vastly prefer a tiling wm but the xdg portal is just so much better. Could go back to #swaywm but I'd lose good screen sharing, I couldn't get wlx-overlay to work, and electron apps were having consistent issues. #linux

I see KDE Plasma screenshots and want to go back to DE because it just works most(?) of the time and looks beautiful.

But I'm already get used to Sway so much.

Even with Polonium script and custom keybinds, Plasma has a very different experience: an overcomplicated set of software […]

After years of using Pop!_OS I was getting a bit tired of not being able to easily use the latest and greatest versions of packages.

Wanted to try Arch but without the arduous install - #endeavouros fit the bill perfectly.

Happily running swayfx on nvidia without any problems. #swaywm #linux

Does anyone have any tips for setting up sway wm and some basic apps?
I'm on fedora sway rn and currently trying to copy endeavours sway spins config style #swaywm #fedora #linux #windowmanager

Migrated my #swaywm config to #niri. Everything worked super well, I could replicate 90% of my shortcuts/behavior from sway with no issues. And I finally get my beloved rounded corners without depending on a fork.

Watched #Silo season 2 and happened to noticed this scene of a camera view. The interface kinda looks like a custom config of some type of tiling window manager in #Linux. Maybe #SwayWM or #Hyprland, maybe?

fuck #nvidia for nearly single-handedly holding back #linux adaptation, but also fuck #swaywm for at times downright insulting the user for hardware they may not have had a choice in the matter of. And fuck everyone for not having tiling WMs that aren't dogshit on wayland.

I swear rounded borders in #swaywm has cured my squarepression

I'm really sad that #swaywm won't ever receive rounded corners because I just tried out #swayfx and it's too pretty 😭

Bought a shiny new ASUS RUG NUC 970 with the Nvidia 4070, and was bemoaning feeling forced back into X and i3 after running Sway for the past several years.

Truth be told, it's been more like running into an old friend you haven't seen in a while. Feels good.

Just lost 6 hours of my life trying to get SwayWM running on an Nvidia 4070. Everything is peachy until you fire up Chromium or Kitty, or maybe want to reboot the box. <sigh>
