Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    I'll say that while it still has features that Wayland doesn't it's not dead, it doesn't get updates yes but it still used by a lot of people for the fact that Wayland just doesn't support some stuff that x11 does. Great example I have is TeamViewer and Nvidia+KDE

    You made exactly the point I was trying to make.

    I guess "dead" is a matter of definition in this case. 🙂

    While TeamViewer is definitely neglected I use it often on Wayland and it works well actually!

    In the past year or so it doesn't shut down correctly. But the core functionality works well.

    I've been experimenting with Rustdesk as an alternative because I doubt they'll update the Linux client anytime soon. The Windows version looks like an entirely different application at this point

    In terms of feature parity. I believe the only thing left is global hotkeys, which hyprland proved it can be done.
