XMousePasteBlock
- [EndeavourOS][KDE] Is there a way to disable middle-click pasting in XWayland apps like Discord, other than by forcing these apps to use Wayland natively?
-
What low key UX improvements would you like to see in linux desktop environments?
I've actually been using XMousePasteBlock since it does things more elegantly than running an endless loop in the background. But it's still a workaround that shouldn't be necessary unfortunately.

Linux — Enable Middle Mouse Button Scrolling on Chrome(-ium) and Electron apps (Discord, etc)
Also, don't run this incredibly bad bash script for purging the X11 selection buffer. Use XMousePasteBlock: https://github.com/milaq/XMousePasteBlock

Is it possible to disable middle click paste in Wayland?
This is what I use on X11, but I doubt it would work on Wayland. Might be worth trying anyway: https://github.com/milaq/XMousePasteBlock

Switched Work Computer from MacOS to Fedora 35 on Thinkpad - 2 Week Impressions
The option to turn it off only works on GTK apps. Here you have a workaround for this. I've been using it for quite some time now and works great so far (I'm on Pop btw).

"We understand" ;)
This is partially why i use tools like i3 (/ sway). i like the tool; it works extremely well for me; the design has stayed the same for 20 years; there's no profit motive to come along and fuck everything up. it just works. it is boring in the best way possible.

Firefox on the Brink?
I also have crashes on sway, but there’s a rough workaround now which prevents the issue totally.
I believe there’s a design issue with Firefox and GTK handling input events; some Wayland compositors have workarounds but others do not.

Firefox is my preferred browser and I hope we can keep its engine alive in this era of Chrome dominance.

Sourcing dot profile on sway starutp
I'm seeing this: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Setting-Environmental-Variables but I haven't figured out how to make GDM do it, and I was wondering if there was a super simple "HEY SWAY READ MY .PROFILE" thing I could do.

Option to not scale xwindow clients still out of the question?
So I searched around and found the following bug report where this problem and a possible solution was borough up: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/2966 , which was then immediately closed again.

What Desktop Environment or Window Manager do you use on your Arch Linux System and why?
I've been using Sway since late 2019. I like the workflow of a WM. I honestly find it hard to go back to a DE, I like having a minimalistic desktop.
-
On Desktop GUI Minimalism
Sway is fast, minimal, and flexible. Their recommended tools/addons are worth a look: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway
From that list I use greetd + tuigreet as my login manager, sway-launcher-desktop for FZF-powered app launching, and wob for lightweight brightness and volume display (send '50' to the wob socket and it'll show 50%; it doesn't get simpler).
