btw how the loading time? For me even without extensions, the time between the login screen and usable desktop is very high.

It’s about 1-2s for me which is fast enough

Wait really? It takes like a whole minute for me

StoicLime,

That’s weird. Is it a specs issue? What distro are you running?

prenatal_confusion,

I had a Bad ssd that had a similar effect. Even though it passed the badblocks test every time. Maybe there is something in the logs about the controller.

I’m running gnome on Arch. Im using a hard drive so that might explain it. Also it sometimes unexpectedly freezes(might be my nvidia gpu). I’ve spent months scouring forums and chatting with fellow users but non have found any way to increase the speed.

EddoWagt,

Im using a hard drive

Yeah that explains a lot… An ssd will make a giant difference, and they’re really cheap right now

auf,

Too good for a first rice

Thanks!

Moshpirit,

Nice desktop! I see you use Obsidian and Logseq, may I ask why do you use both? I’m still deciding how to PKM.

StoicLime,
@StoicLime@lemmy.world avatar

I prefer Logseq’s workflow but the app on Obsidian is just so much faster, I do end up using it

Moshpirit,

Oh I see haha I thought Obsidian would be much heavier than logseq due to all the plugins and stuff, TBH.

Just and fyi. Rice/ricing is a derogatory term and really shouldn’t be used.

Edit: yall that are downvoting me. Look it up it’s not something that we as a community should be using. It’s been discussed here previously.

StoicLime,
@StoicLime@lemmy.world avatar

May I ask how is it derogatory? I’ve just seen it used a lot on unixporn subs and communities, clearly it’s not meant in a derogatory fashion.

It originated here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_burner

Yeah, last I checked it was used in the 1980’s and only in like US and UK(only like 5% global population). Half the people in this community wasn’t even born then. When most people hear the term ricing they think about theming their desktops, not about the car culture thing.

The word rice has been central to the whole unixporn community since it started. I don’t like it being banned due to some white guilt.

apprehensively_human,

That tiling looks really slick. I’ll have to give it a try, I’m using POP_OS Shell right now which does the trick but I’m curious how it stacks up.

StoicLime,
@StoicLime@lemmy.world avatar

I tried POP_OS Shell too, but the animations were just way too janky for me, and I didn’t like that. I tried out Forge and some others but they were all pretty much the same. PaperWM on the other hand takes a completely different approach and stacks them in an infinite horizontal scrollable list. After using this implementation for a couple of weeks, I just can’t go back to anything else at all!

Phanatik,

Have you tried SwayWM? If so, what differentiates Paper from Sway?

I'm asking mainly as a Sway user curious about other options (not because I dislike it, it works pretty well for me and I like the automation aspect).

StoicLime,
@StoicLime@lemmy.world avatar

I did try sway but the first thing I got was a config error… on a completely fresh install!

Anyways, PaperWM is just a Gnome extension, giving tiling within Gnome instead of being a dedicated WM like Sway or i3.
