What other usable Wayland DE is there? Gnome? HAHAHAHA
>>107775891Hey kde fag, can you set your mouse custom acceleration curve yet with libinput? Like windows has done for oh, 30 years with pointer precision?
>>107776069i use a trackpad unc
>>107776069Windows doesn't support custom accel curves tho. needs 3rd party bullshitlibinput on the other hand...https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/-/merge_requests/775
>>107775891>>no longer krasheshe didn't say that
fractional scaling is still blurry
>>107776253and that setting has to be exposed by the KDE WM. which they haven't done for years.
>>107776253https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=464868kde retards still drooling, windows still dominating
>>107776069Why would you use mouse acceleration
>>107776319Windows uses 3 curves of mouse acceleration with EPT.1) You're slowly selecting some characters of text.2) You're medium moving over some buttons3) You're quickly moving across the screen.Is this really a technology board? Oh I forgot, it's LINUX.
>>107776069>pointer accelerationno sorry i do want to keep the muscle memory of using a mouse for 15 years thank you
>>107776353stockholm syndrome, you mean. The FOSS desktop specialty.
>>107776367i use windowswhat
>>107776353You think the curve is randomly generated every time you move the mouse, retard? You get used to the curve.
>>107776345Here's what I use: my mouse moves and my pointer moves with it.
>>107776777This. Literally everyone played FPS games like Quake, UT and CS in their youth and the very first thing you did on a fresh Windows install was to disable mouse acceleration. I don't think there's anyone who's used a computer since they were a kid who thinks they should be used with mouse acceleration.
>>107776345non meme reply but why do you need 3 different levels of mouse acceleration for different things, how bad are you with your fine motor skills that you need 3 different settings for all of this when you should be able to do all 3 with a single setting.
>>107776439you know whats 1000x easier to get used to? your cursor moving a certain distance on screen when you move it a certain distance physically
>>107776805it's not 3 separate settings. look at picrel. that is the windows mouse curve for desktop. It works perfectly for interacting with... text, buttons, and windows. imagine that!And you retards talking about games, games like counterstrike let you get RAW MOUSE INPUT on windows that don't use those curves.Fucking loonix tards don't know a damn thing. Just living in KDE's stockholm syndrome. Maybe in 2030 KDE wayland fags will finally get libinput curves.
>>107776118Hate to break it to you, unc, but libinput is also used for trackpads.
>>107775891>lust provoking imagei wanna lick kate's reptussy
>>107775891>fractional scaling just workswrong>no longer krashesvery wrong>looks good nowdebatable>just werks with waylandnigger what the fuck? no it doesnt>awesomely fast with arch based distrosI use a thinkpad and it was balls slow when I tried it 2 months ago. did they recently just fix everything?also I want to lick that lizard thing's little red dick
>>107776069>kde is so fucking good that copers needs to bring up a feature that everyone outside of techlet office workers disables within 5 minutes
I refuse to believe people who use mouse acceleration and aren't 80+ years old exist.
>>107775891>>no longer krashesI beg to differ, so far there's a 15 minute bug that's been happening the whole major version, and it was introduced in this one.Also, the other day keybinds literally stopped working altogether on my desktop and the volume control was stuck at 45% on my laptop, so I had to completely reinstall the OS to fix that shit.Also, the other day I put the desktop to sleep and when I woke it up, it lost the details of my secondary screen and had set the resolution to 480p, had to restart the computer to fix this too.
>>107775891>made in india>krashes>Nate's business opportunity
>>107776804The only times I use acceleration are for my trackball mice, since using flat curves makes going from side to side take a whole lot of time.Personally, since I learned about flat acceleration profiles I've never used anything else on real mice, it's just so extremely superior it's not even funny.

>>107777601It makes you think about how much people's configs have diverged as computing evolved. There are people using Windows with mouse acceleration, file extensions hidden, browsing with edge, logged into an MS account, keeping their files in OneDrive and with all the ads left on in the start menu and taskbar. They don't even use an ad blocker. Could someone like this even be considered the same species?
>>107777605>People think different than me>This means they're nazis>I swear leftist people are 100% truly non mentally ill ubermenschThe levels of pure hatred, lack of touching grass and mental illness that nigger had to have to type that shit, press the send button and then pat himself on the shoulder saying how much he owned the chuds, are quite literally out of this planet.
>>107777646This is the official spokesperson for KDE that KDE e.V. pays 100k+ using user donations btwUsers donate to fix the constant krashing and they give the money straight to these fags and kde.in.
>>107776805Microsoft wouldn't have added an actual feature unless 1000s of test users didn't support it.>>107776875I use mouse acceleration because I hold my mouse with the tips of my fingers only, and move it entirely without lifting or moving my wrist. I don't get any carpal tunnel.But for those of you who grab the mouse and move your whole fucking arm, then no, don't use acceleration.What a concept that people have different ways of holding things.
>>107777192I literally don't know anyone who doesn't just disable enhanced pointer precision, but this is possible in libinput, and you don't even need to fuck with HEX values in the registry if you wanted to configure it.
>>107777192ok but again, why do you need a curve. how horrible are your fine motor skills that you need fucking mouse acceleration like holy shit this is LITERALLY a feature for tech illiterate boomers.
>>107777669>Users donate to fix the constant krashing and they give the money straight to these fags and kde.in.The only people's money that is used to supposedly fix bugs and crashing is valve's contract with whatever the new blue systems is called, everyone else is quite literally working for free and thus they do whatever garbage they see fix, since fixing bugs is basically slave labor that no one will see, most of the developers never bother fixing shit, the only people actually fixing shit are the ones that might be affected by it.Like holy shit bro, I fucking hate gnome and everything around it, but I quite literally haven't had any massive bugs when running gnome lately, only an issue in my laptop where all screens would be black until I unplug the thunderbolt cables from it, but that's most probably some shit related to shitty intel xe drivers.
>>107778005Not entirely true, they hire people but for bullshit. Everyone else goes through Nate's company that has the Valve contract and only works on what Valve wants (that's why the quality on anything but Arch has been going to shit)This fag is hired to write docs https://rabbitictranslator.com/kde-onboarding/And I know another fag that's blind and supposedly works on accessibility (but doesn't actually do anything?)Work laptop came with RHEL and having kde on my desktop sometimes is a humiliation ritual. I don't like gnome but this shit is literally unbreakable here, it hasn't krashed once
I like kde but why does the bottom bar not extend to the sides of the screen? Why is there a gap? Isn't that just making it harder to click for no reason? I must be missing something but surely it's not just to be different.
>>107778340right click on the panel, go to control panel configuration, cant remember which setting it is because im on my phone right now but its one of those, fuck around with the settings and you will find it.
>>107778371I'll check again but I'm more curious as to why they would do that.
>>107778340Nate, the KDE leader and ex Apple employee, is slowly trying to apple-ify KDE but doesn't understand what he is doing himself. This is a taskbar that tries to be a dock and fails miserably.
>>107775891Plasma 6 is so much better than Windows 11 it's comical. Sometimes I have to use a windows machine and I'm like "are you fucking serious?" It's been total ass since Windows 7 and it wasn't that good then, either.
>>107777605>Paul Brown started working as Marketing Consultant for KDE e.V. in 2017. He comes from the world of publishingHe doesn't write shit he's just some jew they have handling comms. Makes sense that they have the best product on the market and don't tell anyone about it because retards like this work there. He has nothing to do with the product.He probably makes like $35k. On his blurb he mentions being a redditor.
After more than 40 replies it's timeSEX WITH KONQI
>>107780016>Best product>Literally krashes constantly
>>107776069unironic use case for this?? besides the baby duck syndrome
I use Plasma with Wayland and mostly I have no issues, but fractional scaling is just half baked. Fonts are blurrier depending on where. Taskbar icons are also blurrier. When I used GNOME with font scaling factor set to something like 1.20, everything was sharp, every application looked right, only the decorations were a bit small but GNOME decorations are fuckhuge anyways, so that was a plus.
>>107778628Muh style.The setting is "floating" by the way, if you disable that it will stop... floating.
>>107775891>Only 25 virtual desktops maxWhy?
>>107775891>fractional scaling just workseverything looks blurry, specially the fonts.>no longer krashes6+ has been pretty good, very fewer crashes. but its kde we're talking about, theres no "no krashes", if you use it longer enough youll krash.>looks good nowbreeze looks disgusting, and no matter what theme/colour you throw at kde, it looks bad, feels wrong somehow, its kinda impressive on its own. i think the bloated interface is to blame here.>just werks with waylandit does, but wayland isnt great yet.>awesomely fast with arch based distrosif you use it with anything but debian, the experience will be alright, since it needs constant bug fixes and theres no stable kde.>ok you got me. this shit is goodits just good, at the very best.
>>107775891Fractional scaling is nice, but leaves either aliasing or blurry apps
>>107781564> unironic use case for this?? besides the baby duck syndromeDual booting, and using other systems at work vs home and not having a different mouse feel. As mentioned earlier, windows spent a ton of time testing this and came up with these three thresholds for a reason. They work for normies.
>>107781564Unironically, when KDE, one of the largest DE projects, can't get a libinput feature added after 3 years, despite having open bugs/discussions, what more will it take for people to realize that desktop linux is dead?
KDE is one of the worst desktop environments. Ugly interface and annoying bugs. The volume bar bug existed for a year, and it wasn't long ago that they fixed it. Some animations are locked to 60Hz; even if you're using a 144Hz monitor, several animations will appear at 60Hz, like the overview animation. The same applies to scrolling. If you're using Firefox or a Firefox fork, you'll notice it lags every minute, especially when scrolling. The only solution was to force Firefox to run on X11. Plasma shell can also crash unexpectedly and restart itself. No matter which distribution I tried, KDE was always buggy.I'm currently using Fedora Workstation 43, and everything works. Everything is smooth. The interface is quite polished and minimalist. GNOME doesn't crash or lag when I open a few applications. It's as fast and smooth as when I first booted it. It reminds me of my Windows 7 days; I forget which operating system I'm using and focus on my work. I'm not constantly fixing things. Personally, Fedora and GNOME are a perfect distribution/desktop environment combination.If you can overcome your babyduck syndrome and give Fedora Workstation a chance, you'll like it. KDE exists entirely for tourists who hate Windows 11. I don't hate the KDE team, by the way; I enjoy using programs like Krita and KDEnlive that they developed. It's just that as a desktop environment, it's really bad right now.
>>107775891I've used KDE for years but recently (past year or so) it has gotten increasingly shitty and krash prone. Used to be rock solid now it's full of random glitches and minor shit that just doesn't work at all. I don't know wtf they're doing over in KDE HQ but they've ruined the DE for me, next time I feel like changing my system I will not be continuing with this garbage DE.
>cam'here little one
>>107775891sorry I use xlibre
>>107782671trvkeKDE is also so inefficient to use it is painful to work with when one is used to GNOME, here is an example from yesterday:>Unlike GNOME, sessions in KDE don't use the last setting for X11 or Wayland for autologin.>Want to configure KDE to autologin with a Wayland session.>Dig down through category menus using the left panel on system settings and get confused right before the screen with the setting because to get to the actual setting I now have to click a button to get to another screen from the settings area I am in (why couldn't they have it as a tree view in the left panel, or why couldn't they put all the settings on the page and put a scroll bar, why force a jarring UX pattern change, or hell even the brilliant move by GNOME and just default to whatever was last used and you don't even need a setting).KDE makes great apps like kdenlive, krita, k3b, kate but damn the DE is terrible.Interestingly enough GNOME is the exact opposite, fantastic DE and terrible apps.
