  • indeed… I took what I learnt from someone’s dotfile project to build my own minimalist one… took me an afternoon to set up and everything has been rock solid since

    not bad mouthing the dotfiles project I learnt from… they did great but I just did not need that much







  • Its some combination of plasma and wayland

    That could be but it’s not universal to all machines running anything NVidia+Plasma+Wayland as you made it sound in your original post. That is the clarification I was trying to make.

    Not sure if you tried, but you can also bridge the gap with XWayland

    I run the omnissa client (Horizon client from VMWare) on my daily driver on Wayland even though it’s not supported. The client complains every day but works flawlessly












  • About 15 years ago I gave Linux a try, liked it and showed it to my wife who is less technical than me. She said she found it nicer than windows so I put it in the common computer and never looked back.

    You can find as many excuses not to use Linux as I can give you reasons and solutions to try it… at the end of the day, try it, don’t try it, it’s your decision and you get to live with the consequences of those decisions. Me evangelizing about Linux is just as painful as hearing Window users complain about it yet unwilling to do anything but whine about it

    If you do give it a try and have an issue, there are plenty places to get help for Linux better than the MS forums, this is undeniable.

    Also, notice Windows is like bumper cars while Linux is like the entire vehicle fleet of the world, you want to drive a tank, you got it… wanna drive a super car, got it… wanna drive a hot air balloon that moves on good wishes, Linux has one distro just like that… you probably should not learn to drive in a Ferrari when you are late for work, choose a beginner friendly distro and move on from there at your pace if you feel like it
