Spent lots of time with Gnome 2.

In Dec 2024 I got hooked in Hyprland on Arch and have a cool rice for it. But I’ve tried KDE on desktop now with Parrot OS since Plasma is popular. Still need to find some cool dot files or rice it myself.

I’ve noticed SwayFX getting lots of love lately. I might use that as an option with Plasma but am afraid of conflicts. I’m excited about it since Linux has now officially replaced windows on my gaming rig, which is the very last MS computer left in my house.

    Thanks, sounds good. No paper cuts at all? (Not that openbox doesn’t have any)

    config syntax similar but you can’t just copy the openbox config and load it

    Sure; I’m not opposed to a migration process, it’s just that I have so much muscle memory with all my key- and mousebinds. But would you like to expand on this a little? I guess at the very least
    <openbox_config xmlns="http://openbox.org/3.4/rc">
    will be replaced with
    <labwc_config xmlns="http://labwc.org/x.x/rc">
    or some such?
