Mostly on the job learning. Had an IT background and basic electronics skills including crude soldering at the time, but mostly I was just good at troubleshooting and thinking through problems. Every machine was very specialised so it was hard to get much info and a lot of problems were unique to that machine for that user with that sample in that condition...
Currently using gbar in Hyprland as I got a bit overwhelmed trying to learn too many things at once (gbar is very limited but simple to configure). I've always been thinking of moving over to a more flexible option like eww though, and this might be a good reason to do so (keeping things consistent).
As someone who uses Arch (btw) I would never recommend it for a beginner.
Wait, how??
For sure!
I mean, Mint is a great distro.
Have you tried Arch, btw?
Agreed.
Maybe it could be "Installed size +44.6MB" to clarify without taking too much space.
Deep nested menus were also much more common (including the start menu itself), and the menu items were often cramped closer together too. I used to turn the delay to zero because it was "cool" to see all the sub menus flying out everywhere as you moved your mouse up or down to where you actually wanted to go, but as they often popped over due to limited screen space it was actually a poor experience as you mentioned.
Still felt leet though.
Why doesn't my keyboard have a thumbs-up key?!
Captain Kirk is climbing a mountain. Why is he climbing the mountain?
Looking better and better. Unfortunately I need to work directly in CMYK so hopefully they integrate that better soon. I find illustrator to be a bloated mess, but until Inkscape supports this properly I can't use it to replace it.
Have one of the original dk1 units in storage gathering dust. I was so excited for it until they pulled Linux support and Facebook buying them out. Never touched it since.
Do you have examples of this? Not being contrarian, I actually run Hyprland myself. I'm just curious where the limitations of wlroots have been.
