Whats the wallpaper called in this video?

@@Vaprium I lost it when I was reinstalling everything but I remember searching for something like "dark beach" or cliff or lake. something like that

When I set up my Arch partition (I have W10 right now as the only os in my 1TB ssd, so I wanted to try something new :) ) I'll definitely be checking out this rice!

@@fangorito7918 nice

Windu's*

Win-dose

Thanks for the info (a Windu's 10 user).

But he has KZfaq on Chrome, Discord and OBS running. BTOP at 0:20 shows ~3500MB used only on Chrome and another ~2000MB for discord and OBS across all visible process. On 6900MB total, It's not that bad. I run Archlinux Hyprland on a 4GB i5 4th gen Laptop and it's smooth.

and besides that, RAM is there to be used. Unused RAM is wasted RAM

@@paultapping9510 no lmfao. RAM being used where it shouldn't or doesn't have to be used is wasted RAM. your mentality is a crutch for inefficient and poor software design.

​@paultapping9510 this is how you end up with 200GB games

@harisahmad7871 yeah, no. File size and memory usage have absolutely nothing to do with each other. I could code a 10kb program that eats an arbitrarily large amount of RAM.

Nice! cool to see people trying this combo

Just wait for COSMIC, it's gonna be the best of both worlds. A floating DE with an option to turn on the tiling mode.

thanks man, appreciate it

Yes but it’s a little harder. If you’re new you should try endeavouros which based on arch

Yeah. Endeavour is basically arch with an installer and pre-configured desktops that you can choose from. If you're doing something custom it won't matter much.

Me too

thanks man! appreciate it

... and I am pretty sure you st up the rounded edges yourself, right?

app launcher is wofi and im using hyprland as my window manager

hyprland sets up rounded corners

@@maxhudotdevthanks a lot for your fast answer!

wdym

it is hyprland. its just configured different

@@maxhudotdev Hes probably new and of those guys who boasts about using linux yet know little to none about customizations.

@@morbidsoy I know nothing about Linux want to have my Linux configured that way saw some tutorials then it looked different I don't know you could customize it.

Nice

You are missing a lot if you haven't already.

Im using kitty. I recommend endeavour os or arch since hyprland works the best on those

@@maxhudotdev ok hi me again :) u use hyprpaper for ur wallpaper but what do u use to create the panel at the top of your screen? (its not there for me)

Its waybar

okay :( … thanks ngl i just wrote that to increase the click through rate

I know. I used to use do that but I stopped because it makes the code harder to read

I’m using endeavouros which set up the drivers for me and is working pretty well. Also don’t use the proprietary drivers.

@@maxhudotdev how's gaming without proprietary drivers? any performance issues?

@@AlphaFrog1021 I don't play games too often. I tried minecraft on linux and it worked dencently except it flashed a bit. If I want to play games, I'll just use windows since I dualbooted windows and linux

@@maxhudotdev I wanted to switch to linux full time, and I do play games a lot.. that's a bummer, guess we'll see

​@@maxhudotdevYeah, I came across this a couple of days ago, if you have nvidia minecraft normaly works on X11 only. With wayland minecraft is blinking. There is no fixes for wayland

yea. so far this setup has worked decently but i still keep windows around for gaming

I think Endeavour is pretty good, it's like arch installer, and it's better than manjaro. I switched to normal arch because it's more minimal since it doesn't have any of the pre-installed endeavour programs. Using Endeavour is a good introduction to arch since it prevents you from dealing with the kind of tricky stuff of arch initially like the installation process, configuring sudo, getting dual booting to work, getting sound to work, setting up xorg/wayland, wifi etc... Overall, I prefer arch but Endeavour is a good start if you want to use arch without spending a bunch time setting it up

😳

It's modified, I don't believe Endeavour comes with a hyprland option unfortunately.

​@@robertfurr4678Which os you use, I currently use windows 11 as my daily driver and wanted to get some other tastes of linux distros.😅

I wrote a guide here: github.com/maxhu08/dotfiles. Might post a video about it but it's kind of hard to record me installing it.

@@maxhudotdev will this guide work on fedora kde ??

@@maxhudotdev u can record it using virtual machine but if it's hard don't bother the written guide is more than enough , ty :3

Yeah its a hyprland thing. If you want to get animations on i3 you should try picom

@@maxhudotdev Thank you. I already use picom but it doesn't support animations for window's position as far as I know.

@@neztimar43 try pijulius or jonaburg picom

I wish you would use linux instead.

@@ramblomaticrabblerouser I'm Linux curious.

I use arch btw

what are you planning to use? (wm and distro)

Thanks! I was going for a peaceful relaxing wallpaper

I agree

Fr maytey 💀💀

i used to have 20gb ram used on windows 😬

@@maxhudotdev yo what type of windows did you use?!? I have only 12 gigs of ram and it takes about 4 gigs

i usually keep a lot of windows open at once

@@maxhudotdev like 80?😂 but anyways that looks awesome will I be able to run it on my laptop?

@@Mast3rAssassin probably. linux doesnt do use a lot of resources

thanks

new tab x

thanks :)

?

@@maxhudotdev the blue borders around each application opened

what are you talking about

​@@maxhudotdevThe gap between all applications around the whole borders. Unless when you did put the browser in full screen mode.

@@WDGKuurama That looks cool lol, most I'm sure WM users find it cool instead of annoying, also you can turn the spacing & borders off if you wishj

what do you mean

thanks

thanks

yeah

Should be VERY low lol, my Cinnamon desktop uses

you can see it in the top right corner, he also literally opened btop lol

A lot of it is just chrome being chrome

Open ur fucking eyes before you type something

what about paul allan's set up?

I just did sudo pacman -S hyprland and ran `Hyprland` I also made a video on how to install it here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ityfkrKGpr3De40.html

Switching workspaces

@@maxhudotdev ia that possible in windows ,and what the shortcut key?

@@user-mi3ed6ne9bwindows + tab

I don’t think so. it’s a hyprland thing

@@maxhudotdev ok thanks bro

That's not supposed to happen. I'm using hyprland

col.active_border = rgba(7dd3fcee) rgba(3b82f6ee) 45deg

Yes endeavouros is based on arch

bibata modern classic i think

@@maxhudotdev thanks, found it, but is looks ugly in windows. which is a fault of windows, not the cursor.

:/

yes

super+p then super+right click to resize

@@maxhudotdev thank you

@@streamshoc9509 np

Hyprland

I used to use to rainmeter and wallpaper engine for a few years but I switched because you can’t choose the window manager and taskbar

also a lot of things don’t work on windows like fish

😢

to be fair macos does look really good in it's default configuration. Their designers have good taste

@@oh-noe and it's consistent (cough cough inconsistent windows dark theme and god awful dpi scaling)

@@elijahreal32 windows is like that picture with homer simpsons that tied all his excess skin and fat behind his back for marge lol

you can have this on laptop or pc

you mean pywal ?

Yeah, Pywal.

I don’t use pywal because I don’t like when all the colors on my terminal look the same

i dont remember installing zoom 😫

It's more beautiful than tty :p

you mean your tray icons? you need to add that to your waybar/config

@@maxhudotdev thanks bro, i also can't get the transperancy of kitty, i have it added but it doesnt detect it, i have restarted it etc but still no

I didn't face that issue but this issue says to install kitty-git instead kitty github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/issues/707

thanks! i think hyprland looks pretty good by default though

Windows would use like 20gb so this is definitely better

@@maxhudotdev Windows 20gb? Impossible. I use debian by the way on my x220 and to have 7 GB full I need to have at least 80 tabs of Brave browser open plus other applications like vlc.

@@maxhudotdev Lmao what?

@@jakeboardman5212 now it uses around 10gb but thats still pretty bad

@@maxhudotdev Ah. I'm a former Linux user, and may upgrade my PC soon, I'll keep this in mind!

not st its kitty

I believe it is hyprland or KDE with some themes

it looks more like hyprland tome but I am not very experienced in Window Managers

will post a guide soon

I wrote a guide here: github.com/maxhu08/dotfiles. Might post a video about it but it's kind of hard to record me installing it.

​@@maxhudotdev thanks

@@maxhudotdev Can you share me the link of it ?

Endeavour OS with hyprland

Reasons why I daily drive endeavour os with i3

i3 👍

endeavouros

Not anymore, I’m using brave now

idk. try it, if it feels slow you can disable animations

yuh uh

?

desktop environment 🤝 window manager

It is indeed a desktop, you could argue that it isn't a desktop environment. But I'd say that this is also a DE (not Hyprland alone but Hyprland combined with wallpaper, bar, app launcher etc.). And Hyprland itself isn't a window manager either, it is a window compositor 😅

dotfiles at github.com/maxhu08/dotfiles

yea

@@maxhudotdev full time ? Web dev ? Frontend or full stack ?

🤫 i need that click through rate

fish has better vi_mode, has a customizable vi mode indicator, shortened directory, is easy to customize

@@maxhudotdev ah yes i love non posix compliant bloatware

lol i saw the luke smith video about that yesterday. still going too use fish cause its simple and works for pretty much everything i need to do.

@@maxhudotdev while i am generally bitchy about stuff like this, if it actually works for you and is simpler in your day to day life then DO IT! and im glad it works for ya!! also ur desktop looks sick

:'(

😢

That's why it's so awesome. Standards and uniformity are for companies or consumers who want stability. This gives you freedom to do whatever

@@KaraboK9Ntswane Poor people, who made your heads so clouded? Ask any engineer, without standardization nothing in the world would ever be built or created. Let me give you a trivial example - Swedish warship Vasa. The ship did not sail because the engineers who built it used different units of measurement. If they had the same standard, this would not have happened. It’s stupid to boast about this when this is the most obvious problem of Linux.

​@@KaraboK9NtswaneAnd where did you get the idea that standards and uniformity are contrary to freedom? There are standards in programming - these are various libraries and utilities, like CMake, that everyone uses. Thanks to this, people from all over the world can develop even this ill-fated Linux

How can you say something is 'freedom' if you have to follow a standard? My comment still stands. You are defending the consumer who wants stability. Giving example of ships is stupid. A standard is a way to make something work as expected for 99% scenerio which is exactly what a PAYING consumer wants. This allows people like me to make what we want. If you want a work 9/10 solution, go to the windows/mac platforms @@user-yf5kk6om5o

there's always flatpak!

i like mine

@@maxhudotdev yeah I was just kidding, your desktop is pretty smooth tbh

Maybe, I don’t know. hyprland usually works best on arch or nixos

hi

yea sure 👍

@@maxhudotdev sorry for asking but I not familiar with this I am using the Kali Linux kde env if I switch to i3 and with your files it works ?

@@cymzfr The wm im using in this video is hyprland which works best on arch based distros wiki.hyprland.org/Getting-Started/Installation/

whats distro would have been good 😥

endeavour is great

i was thinking about using nixos but arch has a lot of support for hyprland and most things and it also has the aur
