Which X11 software keeps you from switching to Wayland?

Jump

  • Mostly Beamng (ik not software but game using windows Vulkan/native Linux and a note that my de doesnt have good wayland support at this time )

    • LibreOffice is pretty damn good

    Jump

  • Depends on the Desktop/Theme your using really.

    • Apple's USB-C transition is a confusing mess (and that might be on purpose)

    Jump

  • Agreed

    • Microsoft secured my files!

    Jump

  • Oh I thought you can only pick tpm

    • Microsoft secured my files!

    Jump

  • Ik that

    • GIMP (with photogimp patch)
    • Steam
    • Librewolf (I could also opt for a chromium based browser)
    • Tor Browser (to browse onion links/throwaway browser)
    • Heroic Games Launcher
    • Prism Launcher
    • latest Java lts (either from adoptium or openjdk i dont care about flashy new features)
    • Libreoffice Still (similar to the second reason above and onlyoffice in appimage due to Libreoffice weird handling with ppsx files and powerpoints)
    • QEMU/KVM with virt manager
    • Gnome evolution (if it's gtk desktop I could opt for other email clients)
    • Proton-GE
    • WINE
    • Ghostty(Kinda sucks it's based on libadwaita and gnome forces this theme on you no matter your desktop)
    • Fish/ZSH(fish not having posix compatibility is kinda annoying)
    • MPV (I could still use vlc but I prefer mpv because it can stream youtube links)
    • ytp-dl(I can opt for a gui for convenience sake)
    • BTOP
    • Fastfetch

    • Email client recommendations ?

    Jump

  • Alr yw

    • Email client recommendations ?

    Jump

  • Just a note: its more of a Personal information manager(it includes calender,contacts,to do,etc) rather then just a email client

    • How much of a pain is it to install Nvidia GPU drivers, really?

    Jump

  • Depends on the distro here is a list based on my experience

    • Opensuse: medium-ish
    • Fedora: easy (requires a third party repo)
    • Linux Mint: Pretty sure easy
    • Cachyos/bazzite/nobara Very easy (comes with the distro)

    The .run on nvidias website it's harder and requires some linux experience

    • System76 Releases COSMIC Alpha 7 Desktop - Last Step Before Beta

    Jump

  • Wonder if I will stay on cinnamon(not in linux mint) after cosmic comes out in a stable phase

    • Secure Boot on or off with Mint?

    Jump

  • If you want extra security turn it on or you want windows or any game (looking at you vanguard)to shutup about security boot being off
    The only problem with security boot if you care about this is that it's managed by Microsoft(most of the time)

    • Why doesn't the Linux subreddit leave Reddit already?

    Jump

  • because Sadly Reddit is bigger then Lemmy and hopefully Lemmy will grow more.

    • What was your first Linux distribution?

    Jump

  • Pretty sure tails os :P

    • Is KDE actually good or it is overrated? Or I was just unlucky because of prebuilt distros?

    Jump

  • Give Cinnamon/Budgie a shot, (I recommend in a vm and see which one you like)both are based on gnome(cinnamon personally its like a combination between gnome 3 ane xfce).
    I have the same experience with kde personally(Like it crashes sometimes,looks dated,etc it didnt crash that badly for me), and I decided to desktop hop to Cinnamon.

    Yes I have Nvidia

    • Share your partition scheme!

    Jump

  • I just use the automatic thingy on my distro so like:

    • Esp: 2GB (Limine + btrfs snapshot booting)
    • root: all the drive

    • Atomic Linux Distros: What Barriers Stand Between You and Making the Switch?

    Jump
