What is something you want to use, yet are NOT using? (lemmy.ml)

For me, I really want to get into niri, but the lack of XWayland support scares me (I know there’s solutions, but I don’t understand them yet).

Also, I stopped using Emacs (even though I love its design and philosophy with my whole heart) because it’s very slow, even as a daemon.

I want to use COSMIC but its design sucks, I prefer KDE (and on the Rust side: slint).

I want to use GNOME as what it does works great, but it lacks a whole list of features I use.

I want to use Haruna or many other KDE apps, but GNOME/GTK apps are often better and I dont care.

I want to use Gapless as it is the only music player on Linux that seems to not suck? But it lacks many features.

    Its design sucks

    Agreed. But I'm SO tired of trying to find and configure a good tiling WM that has rounded corners and isn't impossible to install or created by assholes (it also helps that nice QoL features like easy kb layout switching are included ootb).

    Qtile, when scenefx support happens (which will happen when scenefx releases v1.0 aka anytime between this year and the next decade by the looks of things), will be perfect for me but until then, I'm torn between Qtile, Hyprland and COSMIC.

    As far as rounded corners and easy to use, I’ve had a tremendous time with swayfx for the past few months, which I switched to from Hyprland.
