Just so everyone is clear, I record all of my videos on Wayland, OBS on Wayland for the core functionality doesn't have any problems, whether that's capturing the screen or individual windows.
There are issues with docks but that's due to CEF at this point not OBS

Use a desktop that implements it properly like KDE, raise and focus should not be the same action

2025-06-17 02:59:55 UTC

Click to focus was always a bad idea and only became a good idea when touch screen PCs came along, focus follows mouse is much more intuitive.

Niri hands down has the best window overview screen I've ever seen, there's no competition

I'm not a Fosstodon user, never have been but I do know a lot of people over there and man the Fediverse is just exhausting. The small vocal minority of people continue to do everything in there power to make this platform far more toxic than anything they claim to dislike.
Just so we're clear, this doesn't end here, the next thing is going to be stricter and then more so until these people turn there fangs against you. Context read @npub1080…cr2f post and the linked post inside https://kevquirk.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-the-fosstodon-drama

I've been thinking lately about PopOS, the last proper release was 22.04, the distro has been waiting on COSMIC to be finished but the distro space has changed a lot since the last release, now we have Bazitte, PikaOS, Nobara all competing in a very similar market.

I'll probably buy a Switch 2 for that

To anyone who wants to reach out to me about some story the absolute worst way to not look like a troll is to say you have something and then not provide the tiniest piece of evidence of it. If you can only share it in a VC guaranteed don't have any receipts.

Here's a thought, if distros start widely adopting uutils or some other coreutils rewrite I wonder if we'll see the same contrarian complaints that pulseaudio and systemd dealt with and Wayland is dealing with now

2025-03-17 00:07:29 UTC

I wonder if we're actually moving into a world where GNU/Linux is just a flat out wrong statement, Ubuntu is adopting uutils, I wouldn't be surprised if others decide to experiment with it

In my testing of Firefox based browsers I've learnt that regular old Firefox now has native support for vertical tabs

I think the biggest failing of Windows is making the update process so annoying and so disruptive that there is a dangerous amount of people that would rather never get security updates then have to deal with Windows Update

Well that was to be expected, Nintendo just filed DMCA takedowns on a number of Ryujinx archives on Github https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2025/02/2025-02-26-nintendo.md

The red means it was removed in case you're not sure about github, the term sell has been entirely removed from the FAQ page https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/faq/

I can see that as well, I think all we can do is wait and see what actual hands on results are like

The layout looks quite similiar to the Steam Deck so I guess it'll be a matter of how you feel about that and the minor tweaks they've made like having angled track pads

I get it from people outside this space but even in the FOSS world there are a lot of people that simply doesn't understand the basics of how copyright works, how licenses work and think, "oh, I can see the code, therefore I can do whatever I want with it"
