I wanted to get a feel for everyone’s thoughts on desktop environments (or window managers if you don’t use a DE). I’m new to Lemmy, so apologies if this is too low-effort a post.
Personally I’m running KDE on my main computer, but I have an Arch virtual machine I use for more experimentation. That VM has seen KDE, i3, and will probably see hyprland at some point soon
I use a window manager, Openbox. It’s great once you have your personal config file and shortcuts! Also, I can’t be sure but I think @[email protected] recently switched to Hyperland lol
Lol read this comment first then understood the last sentence after a short stroll. Take my up vote!
Hah! Lemmy.world issues maybe?
I’m surprised you mentioning that after I only sent that twenty times :-D
I just jumped up on the Hyprland band wagon (4 weeks ago). Very pleased with it so far!
Gnome. It just seems simple, elegant and smooth. It does what I need from a DE (not that much, I do a lot in terminal and Emacs). It has good keybindings out of the box and good virtual desktop mechanisms. It was also the first DE with good Wayland support. At first I was unsure if I liked Gnome’s concept and restrictions, but I’ve grown to like it fast.
I use GNOME.
Great wallpaper. This is the original artist: https://www.deviantart.com/arsenixc
Yes! There are several variations of it and I use dwall to change them according to daytime.
I recently switched to hyprland, love it!
Sway. I look around every few months but nothing usually, um, erm pendulates my interest. I have hyprland installed…but my config file breaks with every update, and it’s rice first, function later. I’m an opposite-ricer. I like to strip all decorations.
I just started using sway as well! Care to share any tips, tricks, or your favorite config snippets?
Just keep the config file(s) handy and always be playing with them. Join IRC #sway@Libera. Oh…and you can use the majority of the i3wm docs outside of anything doing with output or input. While I love man pages…I prefer web content for my docs.
I’ve switched to LXQt recently. I like KDE and use mostly Qt apps, but KDE itself has too many features I don’t really need. So far so good, I can’t say I miss anything.
i3 with dmenu and polybar. Such a great and efficient setup for school and work, love it.
That’s the setup I tried to get used to. I miiight still have it, although it was on my testing VM so I think I have reinstalled since then
I recently switched to hyprland and I love. I used plasma before but wanted to touch base with a tiling wm.
Sorry for the spam. These are my first activities with Lemmy, guess I should click less and be more patient
