I'm starting to really like tiling window managers. I never got into them on Pop!_OS because they felt clunky. I've been a longtime macOS user, but I never used workspaces there since I found them hard to navigate. I've always just used one workspace with all my windows stacked on top of each other. I like them floating. Until now.

With Hyprland, I've grown fond of a keyboard-only setup with customized tiles that I can move around and tweak as I like. I have one "nerd" workspace with a browser and four terminals, one for music, one for messaging, and so on. It feels great to be learning something new.

I recently made the switch from #Hyprland to #niri and I couldn't recommend it more

I was somewhat doubtful at first, but after just a day of use I cannot ever go back

niri all the way

have you tried #niri so far? What's your experience?

@frameworkcomputer sponsors a transphobic developer: Vaxry, developer of the Hyprland compositor.

Vaxry has been known to harass trans ppl. If Framework is putting money towards that, maybe I won't put money toward Framework anymore. Maybe you shouldn't either, until they stop this.

Transphobia is not appealing, especially for the kind of people who would normally be interested in Framework's devices.

Been on #dhh OS of choice #Omarchy.
I am such a big fan of him and his operating system with #hyprland on #Arch.

I am not even a developer either and I love already. Its sleek and fast and perfect.

I can't use #Wayland with my #Linux system. Performance is terrible.

I have a 2021 Lenovo P17Gen1.
It has both an Intel P630 and NVIDIA RTX3000 Mobile GPU, running as a Prime pair.
It has a 4K eDP display, and two LG 4K displays, one connected via USB-C, and one via DP, via a TB3 Dock, all running at 60Hz.
It has 128GB of RAM, and 4TB of striped BTRFS SSD.
I am running the latest #Hyprland.

I tried running on #Arch, which cut the frame rate worse than half ANY time I connected an external 4K display ANYWHERE on either the laptop, or dock, DP, or USB-C. It refused to work via HDMI.

Switched to #Ubuntu and use Koolit's #Ubuntu installer for Hyprland. Performance is close to 60fps, but not quite. Stutters, and OBS runs at an average of 10fps, regardless of whether #PipeWire is in use, or not. Unusable.

I have been a #Linux user since September of 1991, and I can't even begin to know where the FK to go to even diagnose this problem, due to the sheer number of variables.

Is it the NVIDIA drivers?
Is it Wayland?
Is it Hyprland?
Is it Pipewire?
Why is the performance better on #Ubuntu than on #Arch?
If I were to use Wayland, what COMPARABLE GPU would I use instead?
Do I just completely jettison using a laptop and build a workstation instead?
Why in the flying FK can I not get stable vsync?!

I am posting this, because I am genuinely looking for knowledgable answers from knowlegable people, and I am VERY concerned, that given the mass exodus from Xorg to Wayland, that I need to figure out something before I end up with a system configuration that is unusable.
