Found the Nvidia user

I just have "plasmashell --replace" mapped to meta + del.
I totally just stole that one
Do you know the whats the difference by any chance? Would be interested
I've had to have such a shortcut for... 4+ years now.
It gets used too often
You know what's funny... I use Windows still for gaming and I have KDE connect installed to control stuff from my phone, and I have a "Refresh KDE connect" shortcut because the connection sometimes bugs out.
I eventually want to return to GNU/Linux, but I just don't see a DE that has no drawbacks. The most reasonable choice I think is to just return to MATE, even though it looks dated and doesn't feel to innovate.
I really want to try KDE out but it looks like a cluster fuck for me.
Plasma is fine. This buggy reputation is from a decade ago.
I can just recommend trying it out. If you're not stupid like me and use the wayland session with nvidia drivers it is anything but a clusterfuck
Linux mint cinnamon?
ah a fellow Waterfox user, flatpak or appimage?
AUR waterfox-bin, btw (Β¬βΏΒ¬") I'm almost glad to have made the mistake to install Arch because through AUR I don't have to get involved in these flatpack/snap/appimage wars xD (also because I have no clue what I am doing, but don't tell anyone)
ahah lol that's fair, i maintain the flatpak so whenever i see someone with Waterfox on Linux I get curious. Love the AUR but I'm mostly on immutable distros so I don't get to use it qwq
I actually used the flatpak on my mint install a while ago, had no problems. So great work for a great browser I'd say xD thanks o7
This is unrelated but what's the appeal toward immutable distros to you?
I don't mean this in a hostile way I'm genuinely curious to know. I usually consider the ability to change anything about Linux as quite a big selling point so these distros seem kinda counterproductive to me.

Immutable distros are actually easier to customize and tinker with than traditional distros, while being safer. Example: Universal Blue
Distrobox says hi! I used the AUR occasionally when I was on Silverblue and there weren't any alternatives short of compiling the software myself. Or rarely if I needed a newer version of something.
i mostly use kde apps like krita and kdenlive, although when i did use plasma i didn't have these issues. i use sway now because i wanted fully functional tiling (both polonium and bismuth were weird/buggy)
Similar to an official cinnamon feature that automatically reloads cinnamon if it's memory usage becomes too high
I see someone else is also using waterfox
It's apparently independent again - announced in July 2023. here's the announcement
Still don't understand the purpose of wayland besides cleaner code and easier updates for kernel level stuff.
X11 has been fairly updated with all the features people wanted and needed anyway. Just because no one uses all of its niche and antiquated plugins and extra stuff, doesn't mean its inherently an outdated program.
