Maybe three electrons not working with hibernate is another reason for
it to go out of fashion, I wonder if I should also add warning to myself
about quitting all electrons before either operation.
When I previously tried them, Snap worked better and Flatpak was
misbehaving, but now the situation seems to have turned around with Snap
unable to use some features such as tray icons (which is attributed to
an uptream issue with Electron builder).
* expected packages now also contains keybase
* Keybase's tray popup is now floating
* autostarting Flatpaks are separated from normal apps and below them
* Gajim has --quiet, even if it probably doesn't affect anything here
I seem to be unable to find happiness with default and often after
opening multiple windows my first thing to do is moving to stacked or
tabbed layout. Stacked layout seems easier to split than windowed which
is still easy to reach and centerized titles probably benefit windowed
layout the most.
The compton example makes everything transparent and is horrible.
Even if it's there and judgingly says that I have used half of my /,
it's still nothing to worry about and seeing it there all the time will
give me advance warning if it does become something I need to look at.
xfce4-terminal does the same things I had urxvt do and works with emojis
that were my problem with urxvt and even does copy-pasting with
Ctrl-Shift-C/V which terminology for some reason failed to do and is
probably even lighter.
I also disliked the idea of having to change the story of what is my
preferred terminal emulator everywhere, so now there is a single
variable which I can throw around as I need.
As I started using emojis also in some config files (i3status), I
started looking for a fix to my urxvt emoji problem and there was one
workaround which would have turned it very bad looking and suggestion to
use another terminal.
I looked at lists and decided to try terminology, even if this is too
fancy/flashy for my taste, but it doesn't have a visible menubar to
annoy me and the long pressing right click menu feeled intuitive, so I
guess I will be using this as I always install many heavy thigns anyway
(I haven't checked resource usage). And most importantly the emojis
work.
With the right click menu, I got this to look how I want within a minute
without learning yet another Xresources file.
I spend most of my morning trying to make this perfect, but as I cannot
reach perfection, maybe it is good enough.
I didn't see that much use for free space of / and trying to add
everything made it feel like too much information, so I ended up to
hiding some information and showing what seemed useful.
At the moment I see volume, load, WLAN signal & frequency, UTC & local
times (with timezone names) and the bar items which would probably be
configured somewhere else.
When I login and attempt to use dmenu, it will take a moment before that
is possible and I thought that having it load before I try to use it
would be nice. Then I found an issue about it and PR that closed it, but
didn't notice the commit is not in any released version so I typed this
in advance.
Firefox is going to annoy me by not floating sooner or later, so I think
it's better to float it and keep using it as the only thing in one
workspace.
* pgup/down navigation for workspaces, I may not use them, but I was
playing around
* add a lot of comments
* read the fine manual of i3lock, enable cursor that I often use to
check the device is alive, turn both backgrounds black and enable
showing of failed login attempts
* disable notify-send:ing volume changes when media keys are used as
pasystray does that by itself
* unfloat Firefox for now, even if I will likely need to float it again
when I attempt to use it on Zaldaryn.
Tor Browser requires floating even more than Firefox as there
privacy.resistfingerprinting is enabled by default and it warns you if
your window is bigger than it sets as that can be used for
fingerprinting.
I removed Galculator keybind accidentally in commit
a78dcdf452 and I have picked it, because
it's the default calculator app in MATE.
