i have this old ASUS Eee PC collecting dust, decided to try if niri will run on it. well, it actually runs! a few shaders failed compiling (ran into ALU instruction limits), but otherwise seems to work

I use with window manager and I need a new monitor. Anyone could give me a feedback about how window managers perform in hi-resolution monitors? Particularly, is 4K overkill?
I also want to use ddcutil to change brightness (I have very sensitive eyes 😞 )

Continued thread

today's progress: wheel scrolling up and down, right click to scroll left and right, click on workspace to focus, some keyboard fixes

this is all mouse-only on the video. only currently using a 3rd-party tool for the hot corner (waycorner), i'll integrate that later

Confessions of a hardcore tiler, a blog post wherein I critique a critique of tiling window managers, and try to explain how I use mine, and why I find that so very convenient.

Not surprisingly, it's from the perspective of a #niri enthusiast.

There will be a followup next week or so: I'll interview my wife about her use of a tiling window manager too.
