Also, related note, how easy is it to migrate from one distro to another? I am thinking about trying something else - maybe base Fedora or Arch - to hopefully have better performance.

You can backup your data and restore but will have to reinstall all your apps.

Also have you tried asking in the nobara discord? GE and other devs are in there so you likely to get help there.

Nutomic:

This is implemented in the main branch now. If you want to develop a plugin for Lemmy, have a look at the RFC and the examples. If you have questions about plugin development, feel free to post in the Matrix dev chat, [email protected] or open an issue.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3562#issuecomment-2760779122

Examples in multiple languages: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-plugins#lemmy-plugins (only a few examples currently, more languages are possible including Python)

Anyone planning to start working on a plugin?

xfce4-screensaver works on Wayland in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Thanks interesting stuff. swaylock and hyprlock seem pretty cool from a few videos I watched. Though none of these provide screen saver functionality afaics. I might be correct in thinking xfce4-screenserver is the only one.

How do they plan to stay afloat? Google street view api is not cheap.

They should at least make a docs tag or similar and tag all these documentation like posts with it.

Apt package updates take longer than expected - where to look? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

The next time packages are unpacking (or just before), run in another terminal/tab: journalctl -f.

That should give you the logs. Try to do this when no/minimum other apps are running as to not pollute the logs.

Which Distribution and Desktop Environment should I use? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

Another thing is that my laptop might be using Legacy BIOS, so systemd isn't compatible with it.

Oh sorry, then Fedora isnt a good idea. They have deprecated support for Legacy BIOS.

Anything with LXQT 2.1 available should give the same experience however right now it seems only rolling distros ship with 2.1. Lubuntu 25.04 will ship (in ~April) with LXQT 2.1 but it wont default to wayland so you might have to do some manual config. Its also not an lts release.

storage requirements

shouldn't be a big problem. lxqt is super lightweight. If you go with lubuntu, I recommend turning off snap to save some space.

Linux Mint MATE or XFCE are really good if you dont necessarily want wayland support.

Another option is the Raspberry Pi OS. Debian based, should be very lightweight and runs wayland. I haven't personally tried it though.

Try Fedora LXQT too, it ll default to wayland in the next fedora release (~4th april i think). Its very lightweight.

Crystal Dock v2.10 (a latte dock replacement) (github.com)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
2 comments fedilink
 

v2.8, v2.9, v2.10 were all released recently after a few months hiatus (v2.7 was in Oct).

Most of the changes were bug fixes but v2.8 had new features too:

  • New visibility mode: Intelligent Auto Hide (aka Intellihide / Dodge Windows): in this mode, the dock only hides itself when there's a window covering it or there's a maximized window.
  • Supports LXQt (KWin) on Wayland: including special menu entries (e.g. Log Out), specific default launchers, setting wallpapers and separate config.
  • Task icon: Allow cycling backwards through window applications with CTRL: so left-clicking cycles forwards and CTRL + left-clicking cycles backwards.

Crystal Dock is a cool dock (desktop panel) for Linux desktop, with the focus on attractive user interface, being simple and easy to customize, and cross-desktop support.

The current version (version 2) supports KDE Plasma 6 and LXQt (KWin) on Wayland. Other desktop environments will be considered when they run on Wayland and provide sufficient APIs. The previous version (version 1) supports KDE Plasma 5, GNOME, LXQt, Cinnamon and MATE on X11.

Are KDE config files documented anywhere? (lemm.ee)
 

I would like to backup some KDE settings but don't really know which files to copy from .config

Searching for their names in github.com/KDE has given me some idea about their purposes but I couldn't find any comments or documentation there either.

What has been your experience with Autin? Is it something worth using? (lemm.ee)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/56743494

For context Autin (Github) is a shell history replacement that apparently provides a lot of extra functionality.

Has anyone used it? Im thinking of switching to it but Im worried about its impact on performance and if its worth it.
