A dynamic tiling Wayland compositor

Breaking changes

  • window/layer rule regexes now require a full match (not any match) to trigger.
  • cursor:dumb_copy is gone in favor of cursor:use_cpu_buffer. This should allow no-downsides Nvidia hardware cursors. Please note it's experimental.

    Reminder that the Hyprland community is full of racist and anti lgbt fucks and no one should support them

      I have bad news about stallman and well, everything derived from his work therefore

      Interesting, do you only use software from "good people"? Like X (twitter), Brave Browser and oh, obviously Lemmy itself?

      I mean, I use hyprland because it's f*cking awesome, I never heard about how bad their devs are, I only check these stuff if I consider to "donate a coffee" for the devs. And I never tossed a coin for hyprland.

      Why shouldn't I use it?

      It's not like I don't believe you, but would you mind providing some sources? It's outside my bubble I guess, I was only able to find some vaxry drama.

        And before you dismiss this as Drew's rambling, I would trust him any day than any of the hyprland devs.

          I mean, sure its a problem, but it seems to be largely just about the one occurance of the problem.

          Otherwise it seems like the bulk of the post and vaxrys response to that post are about how it was handled and idk if I would have handled it better if I was in that sort of situation.

          When I went into the community briefly both on github and discord I was met with immense help to my problems with hyprland (which I now don't use just because I realized I didn't need to mess with window management)

          If I recall vaxry is young and has some social nuance to learn, this doesn't excuse behaviors but I can choose to accept a solid attempt at handling a wrongdoing.

            marginalized people don't owe anyone forgiveness, but we frustratingly live in a world where people aren't allowed to unlearn bigotry either

              It is easier for marginalized people to point the flaws out and forget about it but I think it makes more sense to try to meet it with understanding and then moving on.

      This is unbeleivably frustrating because AFAICT this is the best Wayland TWM out there, I've been using it for about a year now and it's really good 😅. Have any recs on a feature competative option that isn't run by bigots?
