Shin@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many of you use Lemmy and ONLY use Lemmy vs Reddit?English2·4 days agoThe only thing I have that’s mainstream is Bsky. Outside of that, I’ve been fedi exclusive for some years now. I tried to make a Tumblr, but I forgot just how much corpo ran networks suck. The moment I was hit with adverts for their crappy membership and shop, I tapped out. I have a Facebook that’s only occasionally used to get contact information from old friends and family, but aside from that I’m always logged out.
That’s about it, I think. I consume Youtube through the web client and 3rd party mobile clients without an account, and I get around other sites with similar methods.
Thank you! I was unsure if putting it so much effort was overkill, but I’m glad I did. I’ll probably do some upgraded showcase when I’m fully content with my build, cause I use a ton of TUI tools people probably don’t know about. I didn’t even show off half the features, either. The fun thing about Niri is so much is done for you out of the box, and the config is super detailed.
There are a few things to look out for, though. The choice to use .kdl over .toml, .yaml, or anything people would be familiar is mind boggling. It’s pretty annoying when troubleshooting as well, since Niri is only recently gaining traction. Otherwise, it’s been a pretty painless process. Wayland compositors are so much easier to get started with than the X11 WMs of old, it’s wild. They’re all like mini-DEs.
Understandable, I just have a tendency to raw dog everything I try out with reckless abandon. Probably not the best thing for most people to do. I’d recommend it if you’re curious. I found it rather easy to mess around with, and surprisingly usable out of the box. But who knows, I’m deep into messing with this sort of stuff, so I don’t know how universal my POV is.
If you just want a sneak peak of the workflow itself, or already use GNOME, this entire compositor was inspired by the PaperWM extension.

I think Niri has that feature, but maybe I’m wrong. I’ll definitely have to look into MaoMao later, I did not know that it had scrolling. Thanks for the heads up. It seems like more WMs are supporting this nowadays.
