Burn-My-Windows VS fsearch

For those on Linux (on GNOME and KDE, at least), experimentation is still alive and well in https://github.com/Schneegans/Burn-My-Windows#readme.

This is the first time, one of my extensions (Burn-My-Windows) broke on a new version of GNOME Shell for plenty of users and I failed to notice this in advance. And the breaking changes in GNOME Shell and Mutter were pushed more than five months ago!

I don't think that is currently possible, or at least I'm not aware of any option to make it behave like so. I guess you can ask on the project's discussion page about it.

The update is available for all GNOME versions since 3.36, including GNOME 44! Read the full changelog here.

Plasma has wobbly windows built in still.

I am developing extensions for Linux which add fancy animations for opening and closing application windows. A couple of days ago, I decided to create matching wallpapers for show-casing the effects! First time using Midjourney, but I am very pleased with the results.

Btw, I've written a tutorial for creating BMW effects: https://github.com/Schneegans/Burn-My-Windows/blob/main/docs/how-to-create-new-effects.md

However, for some reason, I cannot upload the new effect to the KDE store currently. Until this is fixed, you can download the KDE version of the new effect from Github (https://github.com/Schneegans/Burn-My-Windows/releases/tag/v23)

Hi, author here.

Likely the most significant benefit is the more powerful query language. For example you can also search by file modification date or size and use boolean operators. https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/wiki/Search-syntax

Yes, FSearch is the one I use, but it's not as great, per FSearch's dev:

> However, FSearch doesn't automatically detect changes made to the file system and update its index then. This is on the roadmap (it's called inotify support) but it'll never work as smooth as Everything on Windows, because the Linux kernel isn't particularly good at reporting filesystem changes

https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/issues/26

Everything is comprehensive + instant + always up-to-date, that's so awesome a combo it's a pity it's Windows only

If you are new and wish a simple way to search, fsearch is a very nice tool.... https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch

You might consider grabbing the latest release at https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/releases.

One other program I've been particularly enjoying recently is fsearch : https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch

If you don't need content indexing, Fsearch is an alternative. I've been using it for over a year now and it's been working flawlessly. Results are near instant and the db is in single digit megabytes.

But AFAIK nothing seems to use this, def not fsearch, they have an open issue - https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/issues/26

Still remember those days of arguing on /g/ where linux longbeards stallman fanboys tried to say how this or that tool was good search... but I dont want to just find something, I want to use it that second, and I want the entire system indexed... after getting some webms to showcase that instant feel it got the message across, though later someone appeared with some dmenu trickery being similarly fast and useful... anyway Fsearch that appeared soon after me is the real deal.
