honestly i kinda get their reasoning… it’s extra jank, extra complexity and a maintenance burden that shouldn’t be necessary if apps stopped dragging their feet about proper wayland support. niri instead focuses on the rest of the experience and honestly? they’re doing a pretty great job because it’s super fuckin comfy to use and customize, at least for me.

xwayland-satellite is the recommended way to run X11 apps, which are unfortunately still many, on niri. is that “setting my house on fire”? really confused here.

yeah really confused about that reply too. is using anything other than Gnome on Wayland “setting the house on fire”?

but i do have xwayland. please read my comment again.

mostly windows going blank or straight up refusing to show

issue closed != issue resolved though. it worked “a few” weeks ago for me too, and now it doesn’t. other people in fedi and one in that issue have the same problem, so it’s not like i’m alone with some weird setup here.

also i should note, although i did that in the linked issue, that other xwayland compositors do work. they’re just way more janky for running X11 apps seamlessly. so i’m not convinced the issue is elsewhere. i just didn’t press the issue out of respect for the maintainer and the only productive thing to do at this point would be to submit a patch if i am indeed right.

god i wish. half of my X11 apps don’t work, some that used to keep breaking out of nowhere.

Steam works through the XWayland compatibility layer

unless you use an environment that doesn’t support XWayland, like niri. xwayland-satellite used to be the easier route in that case but that seems to be broken now.

edit: wow i always thought people were being obtuse when complaining about “wAyLaNd sHiLLs” in their replies when criticizing Wayland. but now i’m not so sure.

None. Move your living room to the forest and never look back. Be free.

Luanti my beloved

the jank is part of the charm <3

suuuper transphobic too

like holy shit dude keeps going on and on and on 💀

i got it immediately and i hate myself for it

oooo here’s my latest one about… uhh, let’s say offensive security against crawlers.

my home is built using Leptos, i write my posts in Org and then convert them to HTML with orgize at compile time. i should write a post about that because i’m pretty proud of how it turned out <3

as for infra i have all my stuff on a vps from a local provider. i mostly do docker containers behind Caddy which i LOVE because it makes everything so simple, including certificate management and automatic renewal.

fuck ESR

all my homies hate ESR

lol. lmao

buying drugs and scamming people

oh, and throwing gasoline at an already burning planet

I LOVE ELECTRUM!! I WANT EVERY APPLICATION TO BE A CHROMIUM INSTANCE AND EAT HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF MB OF RAM!!!

third panel: end up doing it anyway because it’s fun
