How does it compare to hyprland in it’s current state regarding stability, features and support?

Distrobox is probably what you’re looking for.

They are still considered essential in German schools.

Isn’t yay just a wrapper for pacman?

Full desktop environment with decent window tiling.

I love the long german shortcut names. ALTERNATIVER WEB-BROWSER MOZILLA! DEBIAN-ANWENDERHANDBUCH! ADMINISTRATIONS PASSWORT EINSTELLEN!

Jesus, UI design was terrible back then. I’m not talking about technical limitations, I don’t need fancy transparency effects or something like that, but I’m sure that you could come up with something much better using the old UI libraries as long as you follow modern design principles.

That doesn’t mean anything. I once had an issue where every few hours, a random application would crash on Arch Linux, but not on e.g. Debian or Windows. But this wasn’t an Arch issue per se, but was instead related to an UEFI overclock setting (which defaulted to on). After turning it off, everything worked fine.

So while it seemed like an Arch issue, it was actually hardware/overclock related, it’s just that the other OS wouldn’t run into the trigger for the crash.

Wait, is this like a really accurate replica of the Windows explorer, or is it actual Windows explorer in a VM with seamless mode?

Edit: No sane person would add stuff like OneDrive and 3D Objects to an explorer replica, so my guess is VM.

Isn’t this what Flatpaks are doing?

Yes! SF Pro is the only font for me that looks good on a low DPI display.

AFAIK polybar is X11 only, so OP is probably not looking for a Wayland solution, right?

Don’t feed the troll…

You never met a vegan in real life, did you?

From the Hyprland wiki:

A special workspace is what is called a “scratchpad” in some other places. A workspace that you can toggle on/off on any monitor.

Since GNOME definitely doesn’t support workspaces per monitor (and I haven’t seen an extension that does), I don’t think this is possible.

I actually switched back to Windows a few weeks ago because I was so tired of all the NVIDIA problems I had on Wayland. A few days later I read that explicit sync finally got merged, lol.

I’m definitely planning on switching back to Linux, but I’m not sure if I’ll do it before getting a new AMD GPU.

it doesn’t even host it’s own repos

Yes, and that’s a good thing, otherwise it would be like Manjaro.

EndeavourOS is perfect if you already know your way around a Linux system but don’t want to spend the time and effort to setup Arch.

This has been an issue since NVIDIA introduced alternating frames in the 545 driver. To fix this, explicit sync was recently merged into the Wayland protocol, now all it needs is the merge into Xwayland and the new NVIDIA driver that supports it, which is rumored to be released as a beta around May 15.

Until then, you either have to game on Xorg or use the 535 driver.

I think 535 is the only option for Wayland gaming right now, everything else is a flickery mess.

AFAIK we still need this merge request here for it to actually affect 99% of games, because they all run with Xwayland, right? https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/merge_requests/967
