Simplified desktop doesn’t very clearly map to “very text oriented, barebones Linux UI“.
I was expecting something more like the ststem76 Pop OS kinda thing when I read this.
- ThatMedicIsASpy 2y agoNiri would be a simplified desktop to me https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri https://github.com/YaLTeR/niri
- PixelForg 2y agoI really wanted to switch to this but unfortunately it doesn't have support for Xwayland scaling :( in case youre using 4k, On Wayland only KDE and Gnome seem to have gotten this working.
- discardedrefuse 2y agoIf you're on KDE check out Karousel. It's a KDE Kwin script that does this type of scrollable tiling right inside KDE. Works great on my ultrawide monitor. https://store.kde.org/p/2045724 https://store.kde.org/p/2045724
- omnimus 2y agoThere is also PaperWM https://github.com/paperwm/PaperWM https://github.com/paperwm/PaperWM it works pretty well. I would be using it if i didnt switch to Cosmic.
- desireco42 2y agoWow... love it, thanks for posting.
- anonzzzies 2y agoCheers, that looks nice.
- christophilus 2y agoNiri is my daily driver. I absolutely love it. Couldn’t switch back to any other approach to window management.
- LeFantome 2y agoI think it would be better to say “simplified desktop Linux”. The project is more about the Linux “plumbing” than about opinions about the desktop environment. Chimera is not even out of beta and it already includes GNOME, KDE, XFCE, LXQT, and others. The founder uses GNOME but Chimera users do not have to.
