This new year is my year of Wayland. I've got Hyprland going on my new work laptop. Still using my old one with i3 for the time being since I'm too busy during the day to thinker around, but I'm slowly getting this new one ready. Hopefully will be done by the new year.
Unfortunately, anything non-perishable. I go into local shops and can search an item I want on the internet and it will always be way, way cheaper. Cheap enough to where I can't justify "supporting local business." I'd love to, but I'm just as broke as everyone else right now.
Windows 11 finally made me tell my boss "i'm not using that anymore." I've used Linux exclusively at home and Windows at work, but got fed up just like you. I have a VM for testing purposes as the security admin and it's actually improved my workflow since I can tear down and bring up VMs instead of using my main OS for testing.
Glad to hear you've had a positive switch as well.
I personally see a world full of people that get mad for 10 minutes every time a giant corporation makes things worse and then relentlessly consumes just like they did before. I don't see that stopping any time soon. Netflix was wildly successful when they banned account sharing and then raised prices a few weeks later. Sure, a bunch of people removeded and moaned, but nothing really happened except positive profit margins.
Partially true.. I've been using i3 for roughly 8 years so setup and usage is pretty dang quick these days. I'd say it's worth it if tiling piques your interest.
That's pretty much exactly what drove me to it, plus the excuse to get started on Wayland. Like it or not I think Wayland is the future.
I've been on i3 for near a decade for what it's worth.
