at the risk of introducing even more instability into an already questionably stable DE, I use PaperWM and it makes Gnome tolerable for me  https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/30424662/221416159-464d7512-5174-451b-9035-0ee84f9eb4ec.mp4 that and VShell to let me search windows easily but I also have a 4K monitor and aspire to get one with >60Hz and VRR / HDR so it sounds like I'll probably also want to switch over to KDE at some point in the future. I like my infinitely scrolling desktop

Progressive JPEG posted:the one thing still holding me to x11 was synergy. but at some point x11 started completely freezing one of the machines, especially in the middle of gmeet calls. meanwhile wayland worked fine and even felt less laggy overall this is cool thank you for sharing

Perplx posted:macOS is the only mouse optimized os since like 2012 yeah until you discover features like "show hidden files" or "apply wallpaper to only one monitor" behind keyboard shortcuts that require searching the internet to find, setting defaults in the terminal, or context menus in places that are extremely non-obvious not to mention the whole "drag this tiny icon that you didn't know you could drag" ui

zfs is good and more distros should support it as an option out of the box I wish they'd fix the write amplification and high-end NAND performance issues though. seems like a long standing issue

 pipewire is pretty cool and being able to edit OS level audio routing directly with qpwgraph is greatI just wish I could screen share with audio reliably  but I think this is a Wayland issue?

on my first Linux I enabled compiz to get the wobbly windows, played around with it for a few minutes, then went back to Windows XP to play SimCity 4

does that theme use a hand-hinted pixel font for that aesthetic or is it trying to use MS Sans Serif without anti-aliasing?

Cybernetic Vermin posted:though tbh among things apple did that i hoped would spread and stick (but instead didn't stick even at apple) was to go "ok, we can do higher resolutions, what do we do? let's go strictly for the next integer up, same dimensions" doesn't Apple ask for integer scaling with assets and then does fractional scaling with the GPU so everything looks ~okay? I'm still stuck in "100% desktop scaling, 150% browser zoom and electron zoom" land myself

Cybernetic Vermin posted:i got a bit of extra consulting cash this month and thought "oh yeah, i'll buy the good 4k 27" oled to round out my monitor setup". turns out that's basically not a thing that exists. and i cannot fathom why. if you’re okay with 60Hz there are a few available now (starting here and scrolling down https://www.displayninja.com/best-oled-monitor/#Philips_27E1N8900) but if you want high refresh rate then yeah those panels are only available in 32” or ultrawide considering how paperwm / gnome handles multiple monitors with different DPIs I’ve been thinking about ditching multiple monitors and getting an ultrawide that’s 2x 4K monitors wide when my 2011 Ultrasharp finally kicks it

BobHoward posted:yeah, in apple world fractional scaling only happens at the last moment, when the final composited frame buffer is copied to the real frame buffer. in non-integer-scaled modes, that copy involves a rescale as well ah yeah that's what I had in mind, thanks. I'm also using a MacBook Air M1 as my travel computer and it defaulted to 1440x900 for me (so 1.778 ratio?) and it looks ~fine
