Anybody have Wayland-compatibile tiling compositor (WM) recommenddations? I'd been using #xmonad for years, but it doesn't work with Wayland. #KDE #Plasma with #bismuth was good for me, but Bismuth doesn't work with latest Plasma. I've really not found anything good with Gnome, and the options like #sway and #hyprland require a bunch of time to configure and don't do things like remembering what to do when I plug in different external monitors like KDE does. I appreciate KDE's automation.

@Riedler This is timely. I'd been using #xmonad for years, but it doesn't work well with Wayland. #KDE #Plasma with #bismuth was good for me, but Bismuth doesn't work with the latest KDE. I've really not found anything good with Gnome, and the options like #sway and #hyprland require a bunch of time to configure and don't do things like remembering what to do when I plug in different external monitors like KDE does.

I’ve been trying to switch over from Arch to Artix (dinit) for the past week, and from KDE to Gnome at the same time.

For whatever reason I couldn’t get GDM to work. I kept getting a black screen with a blinking cursor. Logs show libmutter can’t find XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. I’m using Turnstile and Seatd, elogind is also installed. Everything else works fine.

Got fed up after spending a few evenings trying to fix it. Removed Gnome and installed Hyprland. Life’s good again

The yearly "I come full circle" train has finished its round.

I'm back on #hyprland once more.

Re-Configuring my config for the months of not running the compositor went pretty smooth.

In the end it was the usual: theme-ing, cursor mayhem, and adjusting my programs and scratchpads (best implementation period) according to my current setup.

All in all it feels one notch smoother right now which can be due to the new #nvidia drivers as well.

alright... during a game jam i tried debugging jittery mouse movements only to find out that they were only happening on
thought this was a godot issue
so far i've noticed this on godot, gimp and krita, no browsers affected, nothing that runs on wine/proton, java programs seem fine too, inkscape works great
