  • What's your favorite DE, and what does your workflow look like?

    Jump

  • I tried to do that when I started, but now it’s just habit. Super+Shift+# does most of the work.

    My only complaint with the EOS configuration is the lack of Bluetooth on the bar. And the sound/screen brightness buttons don’t give any visual/audio feedback. I have some notifications imbedded, but they look and feel kinda janky compared to how nice and clean they are in Plasma.

  • Sway is it. I tried originally building it all up from scratch. It was fun, and taught me how all the pieces fit together, but now I just grab the EOS community dotfiles and make a few minor tweaks.

    For me, it’s not a “workflow” that is sped up, it really just helps me remember where stuff “belongs”. Workspace 1 always has my Spotify, audio mixer, and discord/signal. Workspace 5 is gaming, etc.

    Resizing and swapping window locations around is so simple with just super+mouse click/drag.

  • Can we please, PLEASE for gods sake just all agree that arch is not and will never be a good beginner distro no matter how many times you fork it?

    Jump

  • EOS btw.

  • Are you in this pic?

    Jump

  • Okay, well maybe it’s just me that’s the lazy one!

    The community sway package for eos is so good that I pretty much gave up on my custom dotfiles.

  • Finally some meme recognition for those of us that want to be “cool arch users” but don’t want to spend any effort getting there!

    (Fucking love EOS right now. )

  • Since Xorg is getting old, looking at trying Wayland WMs

    Jump

  • Just grab some prebuilt .config files. I just switched from maintaining my own “custom” set to the endeavorOS community repo for sway, and it’s seriously amazing. Not too much, but has everything I need working right out the box.

  • Help me decide?!

    Jump

  • Thanks man, I’ll pencil in a spot this weekend to give it another go. I’ll hit you up next week if I can’t figure it out. Thanks a lot. I love lemmy for this.

  • I guess so… it’s been a while since I tried it to be honest. I ended up just opting for an additional NUC to use as my media playing PC, but if I could combine that with my “server” NUC, it would give me more a reason to buy new, more powerful hardware 😈

  • Help me decide?!

    Jump

  • Hmmm… I’ll have to try again. I don’t have a windows VM, so I’ve just been trying to pass through my MX Linux VM that I use for watching media. I’m not worried about the GPU, so as long as I can send the desktop to my display via HDMI, I’ll be happy as a clam.

  • Help me decide?!

    Jump

  • Regarding your “desktop” setup. I tried to do this, and have one of my Cams inside proxmox pass the gui out via HDMI to my monitor, and I could not for the life of me get it to work. All the googling at that time said it doesn’t work, but might in the future. Are we in the future?

  • You best start believing in a cyberpunk dystopia

  • Turns out, I’m already subbed to the .world instance.

  • Wait, there’s a VCJ on lemmy?

  • What desktop enviroment do you use and why?

    Jump

  • Same.

    I dont do much customization, but the endevorOS community edition has decent defaults.

    Just working cleanly with tiling feels so good. You dont have to use the mouse to move all the windows around. But if you hold the super key, you can just drag windows around to make a perfect layout. But often than not, i just want 2 windows side by side, with no wasted space. Done.

  • Good way to send small messages between devices ?

    Jump

  • Can you still use KDE connect if my main WM is Sway?

  • Watch completed NFL games?

    Jump

  • Poor quality is fine, I really just want to catch a game or two that I’ve missed. Probably be listening to it more than actually watching. This looks perfect. Thanks!

  • Watch completed NFL games?

    Jump

  • Hmmm. I’m not familiar with mad titan. I haven’t been on the kodi train in a long time. Might be worth a look. Thanks!

  • Watch completed NFL games?

    Jump

  • Oh nice! That might end up being the solution then. Thanks for the reply

  • Watch completed NFL games?

    Jump

  • Damn. Looked perfect until I saw the date of the most recent replay: February 2024 (the Super Bowl)

    I wonder if there’s a setting or filter I can’t see on mobile. I’ll check on my pc when I get home.

    Thanks for the reply!

  • Seconded.
