Finger gesture does not work in Chromium-based browsers with Wayland enabled
With chromium-based like chrome or chromium, this is not the case but at least I can use libinput gesture to allow navigation using 3 fingers (4 are for workspaces and apps switching). Now, I've enabled wayland on these browsers (set ozone-platform=wayland) and there are these issues:
-
3 finger touchpad gesture to switch between groups
I don't think there are native gestures in qtile. I use fusuma, since it works better for me on X11 and wayland, but I've also used libinput-gestures in the past when on X11, and that works too.

how hard is it to program pinch zoom for my touchpad in linux?
I personally use libinput-gestures to call commands using touchpad gestures. You can also combine it with ydotool to bind macros and such to your gestures, e.g. 4 fingers swipe down closes the current window, 3 fingers swipe left or right changes workspace, etc
- Two-dimensional workspaces

Gestures are are a pain to install on linux mint. I followed all steps for 5 hours in the internet and still it says "libinput-gestures failed to start as a desktop application.". Can someone tell me what am I failing to understand here?
$ sudo apt-get install libinput-tools $ git clone https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures.git $ cd libinput-gestures $ sudo ./libinput-gestures-setup install $ libinput-gestures-setup autostart start

Touchpad gesture
if using wayland, try https://github.com/OneAdder/libinput_gestures_qt and https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures

Trackpad pinch to zoom
The github has quite a lot of info, so hopefully we can find the right config for what we need on there https://github.com/bulletmark/libinput-gestures

A note-taking app idea that works with our chaotic organic brains
You can easily configure a custom key shortcut to open the "Quick Note" window with a keyboard shortcut. If you really want to run this with a drag-from-edge gesture, I think you can configure a drag gesture with LibInput-Gestures, but I have never tried this for myself.

Chrome Browser - Blurry Text After Gnome 44.1 Update (under Wayland)
Seems like it's a buggy wayland fractional scalling implementation... It's reverted in the chromium flatpak https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium/commit/eea7af903decb3a3b9bb6fdacbb55d24a90e18f3

Canonical releases Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster
My philosophy has been to let the distro package manager handle system packages (kernel, OpenSSL, etc) but then use flatpak [1] to install user progs like Chromium and VSCode so I get bleeding edge releases and sandboxing.

Some questions from a noob about using Linux
If it helps I'm using https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium along with https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.tchx84.Flatseal
- How do I install chromium as deb in ubuntu 22.10?
- I'm getting strange font errors in certain Flatpak apps.
- Give specific permission to flatpak Firefox

Is starting snaps directly from their installation folder fine when you don't care about sandboxing? (e.g starting chromium snap directly from /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome)
You can inspect how Chromium is built on Flatpak here: https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium

Issues with VS CODE on POP OS ( i need help please)
Oh that doesn't work? Hmm I wonder if you could try the executable listed at https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium and put that in your config?
-
Will Google Chrome be fully isolated if I install it through Toolbox?
No need to trust anything, unlike snaps, the way they're distributed is public and open source: https://github.com/flathub/org.chromium.Chromium

Looks like a Up2Date Kernel is in the works!
Would a workaround be installing chromium from flathub, and using that for browsing? https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.chromium.Chromium
