Interesting. I was just diving into the items table because I am creating a module that displays past items in a list and whether it has been seen or not. Similar to notifications, except it still shows items that you have already seen in a paginated list, similar to an inbox.
I didn't realize that block activities were sent out like that. That might make for some interesting display options for users.

Did a bit'a readin and thought #OrcaSlicer looked like it had a few nice improvements to #SuperSlicer. Their GitHub releases page had a file called OrcaSlicer_V1.6.4-beta2_Linux.zip so I figured I give it a try. I was a bit concerned when I opened that zip and found it contained a file called OrcaSlicer_ubu64.AppImage, but hey, it's an AppImage right, should be fine...nope. First run from cli just to see what it spits out and what'a'ye know, error while loading shared libraries: libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37. A quick sifting through the AppImage contents and guess how many .so files it had in it; yup, not'a one.
What's the point of making an #AppImage / #Flatpak / #Snap if you're not gonna include the required libraries to run it?

in reply to The Linux Experiment • •Fantastic! By far, the best style of video you've ever put out. I love reviews of stuff that offer advice in the way of; "here's a thing, a really good thing, but it might not be what you need/want". People need to use what works for their needs. But at the same time, you'll never know if something may be better for you unless you go play with it.
I've played around with almost every window management concept available for the past 20 years, they all have their place. In doing so, I've found that tiling in general is redundant to proper exploitation of virtual desktop capabilities, and hotkey configuration. For example, in #e16, I have multiple "desks", which are separate virtual desktops, and a 2x3 set of "areas" in each one which act more like what are commonly known as "virtual desktops". When I open a new program, I first place it on the desk and area I want it, then open a wm dialog for that window which allows me to select what I want the wm to remember for that program, such as location/size/border/opacity/etc. Now,

I've also set a few hotkeys for throwing windows to an adjacent area, or the same area on an adjacent desk, and ones for maximizing (full/horizontal/vertical) using only the available space. Using these methods gives me all the benefit I want from a tiling window manager combined with features of one that doesn't, all packed into a very small resource footprint.
And the bit where you mention grabbing and moving/resizing windows with mouse+key is one I would say is a tough contender with highlight-middleClick for the spot of best feature in any gui environment.

in reply to The Linux Experiment • • •@The Linux Experiment Windows also has some tiling capabilities, even some default keyboard shortcuts (that cannot be changed though).
In the ideal word, you'd have apps that wouldn't need to integrate with anything. Everything could be fitted the way you'd like: A window manager, a dock, an email client, a web browser, a text editor, a terminal etc. - just mix/match any of these according to your tastes. But I agree, there's a hell of a lot of stuff that can be accomplished by using the integrated experience of the DE of your choice.

in reply to Cătă 🇷🇴🇺🇦🇲🇩🇪🇺 • • •to expand upon the Windows tiling point, there's an optional MS add-on utility you can install that enables additional tiling features that function in the same way as #KDE Plasma's new (v5.27) tiling interface -- it's called FancyZones, part of the Powertools suite: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/wind…
(...and this Windows utility existed way before Plasma 5.27. I wouldn't be surprised if the Plasma tiling interface was inspired by FancyZones!)

in reply to R3.L5.R3 • • •@R3.L5.R3 Oh, yes. Forgot about PowerToys. Really useful.
The KDE team might have stolen the idea from Windows, or, as @The Linux Experiment mentions, they just got inspired from the tiling window managers to create such an environment.
