SteamLink not allowing me to stream just my desktop (rather than a specific game) on Wayland is really the only thing keeping me on X11 at the moment. I use that feature almost nightly to keep watching something from my PC while I cook dinner

I have cd && clear aliased as home

Lazy aliases unite!

I wrote one that printed a fake “memory cleared” screen so I could keep my stored stuff saved even if the protectors wanted to see us wipe the storage.

I wish I had even half the braincells required to understand the installation for this.

I always end up disabling it on banking and .gov websites, just because I’ve run into issues where uBlock has broken those kinds of poorly made websites pretty often.

Been tried, already died.

“Glimpse”

Does Spectacle work well with Wayland?

Even Endeavour comes with Discover installed, and stuff like Octopi exists and is pretty bug free these days.

If you’ve never had to dig into a registry file or obscure hidden folder path in Windows, you aren’t enough of a power user to ever have to in a Linux distro either.

Don’t be too optimistic, you probably haven’t seen it because it’s not being rolled out universally just yet; they like to A/B test their massive feature changes.

Endeavour is a great example for gui only users for sure.

It was honestly the one thing I still have never found a feature parity Linux alt for after years; it will always bug me no matter what other “it’s basically the same” suggested player I use instead.

That said, currently I’m making do with Quodlibet, and I have no major complaints. But nothing is an exact replica enough for me not to constantly compare it to Wimamp & complain.

Not a serious suggestion, but I can confirm that WACUP does at least have no noticeable issues using WINE

Source: they made it up

That whole timeline is insane, and the fact that anyone even found this in the totally coincidental way they did is very lucky for the rest of us.

It’s essentially just a remote desktop app, so yeah kinda. Depending on your screen resolution it’ll be either be more or less annoying to click on smaller UI elements, but it’s certainly possible.

I keep my Bluetooth headphones connected to the PC, and there’s maybe a split second delay. Otherwise it’s perfect, because you can still navigate your PC with the touch screen as a mouse, and it even nicely supports my 3 monitors at once.

Still holding out for desktop streaming via SteamLink to work on Wayland. I use it almost nightly to mirror my screen to my phone so I can watch what’s on my PC while cooking dinner via my phone.

Same speed, except they’re gouging me for $90 a month over here.

Duly noted, thanks.

Interesting stance.

So, not to throw around too many hypotheticals, but it sounds like by your logic you also would have been opposed to our participation in World War II as well?

I’m just trying to parse your train of thought here.
