  • It's hard to tell if it's a similar cause, but I had issues with double-inputs and occasionally keys would work intermittently on my Dactyl Manuform.

    After getting frustrated enough having resoldered it several times, I hot-glued the PCBs to the case. The thinking that small movements during a key press was causing the contacts to be broken. Everything has been working great ever since!

    If you want to be cautious and have a multimeter, you could also check the connections between the keys. That might help isolate where to focus your efforts.

  • This is how Bernie can still win! /s

    In the off chance they do replace him, they're going to force the worst possible candidate on us (Kamala?). Because what else are you going to do, let the bad guy win?

  • I did just order one to replace my MacBook, so I'm interested in hearing from others as well. The upgradability was a big plus for me beyond being able to have a mobile Linux machine for dev work.

  • Yeah, lack of XWayland support has been an issue for me. Versioning the config API is something I've been considering, or at least ensuring backwards compatibility.

    I'd be interested in other ideas or pain points you've experienced. Not to suggest I'll ever have something production-grade, but my hope is to get to a point that I have a working daily driver and potentially share it with others.

  • There's also Strata, Niri, and to some extent Cosmic. My problem has been that they tend to be very opinionated and limited in the customization of the layouts. Having used XMonad for a long time, I may be a bit spoiled in that regard...

    I do think there's a middle ground for configuration without requiring programming skills, which can be off-putting for many users. After all, most layouts are just a combination of rows and columns. 😛

  • I actually started working on one a few weeks ago. It's amazing how easy it was to get the basics working. Still a long way to go, but it's a fun project in the meantime and hopefully can result in something that supports my desired flow.

  • In a similar vein, I've seen a lot of auto moderator implementations created. If instead of creating yet another project, people started contributing to existing ones we'd have a good core set of functionality that could be shared across instances. Competing implementations are fine, but at some point the efforts get spread so thin that progress is limited.
