I usually prefer having any side machines running something more stable than the main one, as I’m always bound to use and mantain them less often.
Good luck finding something more stable than Debian tho. Maybe something like LMDE, that just got a new version out and is looking great, or trying out an immutable distro.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What feature are you dying for to come to your DE - Linux?
18·2 years agoThe one the Gnome team is working on right now, as described here.
The basic premise of rearranging windows at an optimal size, without stretching them out to fill fractions of the screen, seems like the perfect medium between floating and tiling.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What feature are you dying for to come to your DE - Linux?
8·2 years agoI’m not a Gnome user, but I’m geniunely hyped for the new tiling feature. If KDE doesn’t get something similar soon I might change DE just for that.

111·2 years agoThe Amazon is so close to the Equator that the seasons don’t really affect the temperature that much. The main difference is that southern hemisphere winter is the dry season, hence the drought issues right now.
Not to downplay the role of climate change and deforestation, of course.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Post your favorite icon pack / cursor / theme for your DE
1·2 years agoKDE with Tela icons, Breeze cursor and Nordic theming. I experimented with a few different themes with the Nord colorscheme, but it seems like Nordic is still the best looking and most consistent.
How do you think LMDE and MX compare to just installing Debian directly, these days?
How do you like Atkinson Hyperlegible?? I’ve heard good things about it from visually impaired people, but I’m not clear on how much it helps with dyslexia.

Gaming@beehaw.org•What's a good game you played with an awful tutorial?
6·2 years agoThank god that’s changing tho. CK3 and (though to a lesser extent) Vicky 3 both have relatively decent tutorials.
My only complaint about Okular is when it comes to form fillable PDFs. I usually prefer using the inbuilt Firefox pdf reader for those.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application
8·2 years agoThere’s also plenty of FOSS obsidianlikes. Logseq looks promising, but I’m sticking with Obsidian because I rely a lot on some of the extensions.
Either way, migrating is as easy as opening the same folder in one app or the other, so you might as well try.

Linux@lemmy.ml•GNOME Devs Are Working on a New Window Management System
2·3 years agoInteresting! Krohnkite still works so well for my use case that I didn’t even realize it was unmantained. I’ll give those two a shot!

Linux@lemmy.ml•GNOME Devs Are Working on a New Window Management System
5·3 years agoI’ve been using Krohnkite on KDE. Are those you mentioned better?
I second Plasma as a touch desktop. Neon is pretty great, but I’m not a huge fan of the LTS base + bleeding edge DE combo. I’d personally recommend either Fedora KDE for frequent updates overall, or Kubuntu LTS for general stabilty.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What is your opinion on GNOME 3 and 4? Why do you like/dislike it?English
10·3 years agoComing from Windows, gnome was the desktop that taught me how to use and appreciate multiple workspaces. I’m now entirely sold on KDE, but there’s something to be said about the gnome workflow.


I’ve never had this as an issue with KDE. Do you have the command for prime render offloading on the Steam launch options? I usually launch my games through Lutris and it handles that pretty well.
