From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Maybe windows rules will now work properly instead of being buggy and delete themselves...fingers crossed Imho KDE is too big, there are so many cogwheels they miss the opportunity to actually polish each and every aspect.

e.g. why does KDE need a specific videoplayer?

KDE and GNOME want to be full suites of software that offer a coherent look and whatnot.

This release KDE has actually focused on improving and fixing more than just adding features

MPV and VLC Flatpak both use Xwayland btw.

Clapper uses Wayland though.

Maybe this time I can get blur behind semi transparent windows to work 🤔

Interesting, I've never had window rules delete themselves, am I just lucky?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

how many rules are you using?

[–] turbowafflz 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not that many, maybe that's it. Is it more of a problem when you have a lot?

Idk, I wish I knew a solution, but researching didn't bring me anything. But it has come to the point that I feel KDE is not worth it anymore for me. Just didn't have the time to switch some wayland WM.
