This link says that configuration is stored in a file that doesn't exist, should I make it?

Which part is the usage?

Would these settings be the same if I used the same amount of swap?

You know, for some reason I thought that zram was on the disk, and it isn't. That makes a huge difference. I'll keep the swap then!

Oh, I think I might have thought zram was similar to swap, I didn't realize it takes up ram. Is there a way to see how much ram it's using? What do you think I should set my zram amount to(and how do I change the zram amount, I'm using zram-config)

Should I lower swap? How do I change the swappiness?

I assume I should get rid of most of the swap. I also read somewhere to increase... swappiness of zram?

Thank you! I think I'll end up restarting sometime in the future, but for now this is amazing!

I need the app for my music lessons, so I can't use wayland

I just spent so long installing it, you'd think I've never used Linux before

Hi, I use linux mint and recently installed a bunch of desktop environments, and I think that it might have caused this issue. How do I fix this? I want to avoid resetting, but if there isn't a solution, I can. This does not occur in another distro, or another kernel, but occurs in other desktop environments. Solution:

Cool!

You could try running syndaemon manually in your session, if that works you may need to reconfigure syndaemon somehow.

I want the easiest to configure/theme wm and one that comes with sane defaults. Also I currently use cinnamon, and I'm not sure how to escape from that(everything in it is just so nice) but I want the speed of a wm

Stopping cinnamon close dialogue from ever spawning in mint cinnamon (lemmy.world)
 

It's really annoying, and I would be fine with constantly killing it, but stopping it from spawning would be best. The process is named cinnamon-close-dialogue
