i'm on manjaro kde, will switch soon to nixos if i understand how it all works :)

otherwise arch

me too, but i will switch to arch or nix soon. not because it broke, just to have a frash start. after 3+ years i have a shit load of stuff i don't really need anymore

you can block the community.

if the app you are using allows it, you can filter keywords (sync can)

i have been on manjaro kde for a couple years, the hardware changed during the years. right now i'm on a 2700x with a 3060 and 32gb of ram.

i'm planning to wipe it for pure arch / nix / silverblue kde (sorry i don't remember the name)

not because is unstable or anything, i just want to do some cleanup and maybe change my workflow a bit

my current workflow is kde + bismuth for tiling, almost everything controlled by the extra buttons on the mouse

i'm very open to suggestions!

nop, i'm using owncloud infinity scale, the go version

well fuck. now i need to move my stuff off my own owncloud instace.

yes after a reboot stuff gets reopened in the same place it was (sometimes some windows do not, is not 100% stable). but only windows that support saving themselves into the session get reopened, stuff like vscode or Spotify do not. Firefox and kde stuff yes.

Firefox is very stable in this regard, it always reopens all the windows with all the tabs in the right desktops.

the activity part is definitely a bug, its a kde + X bug and it is in wontfix state. i hope they will rework this feature on plasma 6 with Wayland

i do have a beefy machine... i have 32gb of ram :)

the mouse part is the part i like most. usually people use this kind of workflow to not use the mouse... i did the opposite. in kde with meta+left click you can move windows between monitors or to reorder them in the tiling. and with meta+right click you can resize them. this means that opening 2 windows will open them with half screen for each (because of the tiling) but with meta + mouse i can reduce one window (and thus enlarging the other), it's very fast and very convenient.

the 20 desktops are a lot but i don't use them all, i generally organize my work in rows. but sometimes i use the desktops differently and i like to have that kind of flexibility.

i actually used 2 activities to separate work and personal, with 2 separated Firefox profiles. so i had 40 desktops for personal and 40 for work... :)

but activities have their own set of problems, like, there is no shortcut to send a window to another activity, you have to do it from the menu in the panel. and after a reboot, sometimes windows get thrown into the wrong activity, and that's very annoying.

to add a bit of context, i'm a software engineer, and the combination i use most is vscode on one monitor and Firefox in the other. with maybe dolphin on a neighbor desktop. this repeated 4/5 times depending on how many projects i'm working on.

i have a very very similar setup as yours.

the differences are:

• i have 2 screens, i use a grid of 20 desktops for each screen. the grids are synced between the screens, if i go left on one screen, it goes left on the other
• i have tiling; i use bismuth to add the tiling to kwin. i have set up shortcuts like meta+f makes a window float etc
• i have an mx master mouse with the thumb button and other configurable buttons. i have logiops to remap those. clicking the thumb button will bring up the desktop grid. thumb+up goes a desktop up, etc... this is extremely comfortable to use
• i have configured the task manager in the panel to only show apps opened in the current virtual desktop. this way i can have a Firefox for each row for example.

i give immich 20$ every couple of months. i want to see the future of that project so bad

they are folders and files... no?

back in time? it uses rsync

the real deal is that they printed it in one go. that functional hand, printed in one piece, with all the tubes etc

it requires admin permissions... and on the only place where i'm forced to use windows i don't have those

i have all my stacks on docker compose. if it follows the same specks, i would only need to convert volumes and networks

cool, thank you!

i would like to try.. but as far as i know, there is no "docker compose up -d"
