Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Is there something you lack in Wayland but have in xorg? (lemmy.world)

    Things like, scrensharing, OBS (recently was patched and now it works), discord, spectacle (is a little unstable), screen locking (only one screen or none of them turn off) and some xwayland games/emulators won't work. All of this in a full amd setup with KDE.

    With one Novideo 1660s my KDE panel frozen every 30 minutes.

    If you only use linux for development or browsing you should find no problems.

    Weird, I use OBS, lock my screen, and play games all the time and have never had any problems on KDE. Maybe I'm just lucky with my GPU choices? I use an RX 570 on one computer and an RX 6650 XT on the other.

    haven't had discord or screen locking issues and I have plenty of monitors. haven't run into any game issues either, but I do preemptively run older stuff in gamescope which tends to avoid a lot of issues

    This is a great advice, I'm having issues with alt tabbing with dota, I should try gamescope as well.
