Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Can't find picom and polybar default config files
(https://github.com/yshui/picom/blob/next/picom.sample.conf)
- ArchLinux sluggish on 4K monitor

[photo] installing Debian :)
Also I took a census and zero founding members of NWA are "straight outta Picom". That's right, you heard it here first: Not even MC Ren is running Picom.
-
FPS drops when scrolling in monocle layout with Picom
Update: after reporting in picom GitHub repo this is temporarily solved by using --no-frame-pacing. Looks like a recent commit causes this. You can view the discussion here: https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/1072
- Zoom in and zoom out in dwm?

[dwm] Beginning on linux desktop, first ricing
Compositor : picom
-
In Picom with the rounded-corners setting how do you apply alpha to the menu list?
It looks like this was identified and the repo corrected in Jan (https://github.com/yshui/picom/issues/808) but the NixOS package has not been updated since Nov.

I have two Linux computers which I use for gaming.... somehow the one with slightly inferior hardware gets significantly better performance. I'm trying to figure out why... any ideas?
If you have compositing you are likely using picom. You can check if it's running with ps -A | grep picom. I've never dealt with this issue as I don't really game on linux often, but I'm sure there's a solution somewhere in the github docs or issues. Worst case scenario you could always just kill the process with killall picom whenever you're about to game, and re-enable it with picom -b after. Do note though that currently running windows might bug out a bit when you kill/start the compositor.

What are WSL limitations compared with a pure linux install?
Picom is broken for me with GLX backend related Github issue.

is linux even worth it for gaming?
Well, yes... they're running on non-Windows systems/alternative operating systems. What are you expecting? Plug-and-play? That's not going to happen with non-Native applications. Just like if you were to install (as an example) neofetch onto Windows, you'd have to recompile it's instructions to run on it (sidenote: You can get neofetch to run on Windows... via Windows Subsystems for Linux, but that's off topic).
