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.

Any modern DE in my fucking Raspberry Pi 5. I tried going Debian testing, broken packages. I tried installing other OSes, fedora didn't even boot, Ubuntu broke in installation and now won't let me log in.

Gnome in Debian stable feels too old and I can't get the screen keyboard working and disable the dann screen reader. I just want a box to put on my tv.

Edit: was idiot, thought raspberry pi de was gnome.also the rpi5 needs a custom kernel as some stuff isn't yet in the main one, so use raspbian.

    I discovered that the default de wasn't gnome actually. It was raspberry pi DE, which isn't my thing.

    Through I had no idea that the rpi5 required some stuff that is not yet merged into the kernel, and only raspbian works as a result, because they ship s custom one.
