Spent lots of time with Gnome 2.
In Dec 2024 I got hooked in Hyprland on Arch and have a cool rice for it. But I’ve tried KDE on desktop now with Parrot OS since Plasma is popular. Still need to find some cool dot files or rice it myself.
I’ve noticed SwayFX getting lots of love lately. I might use that as an option with Plasma but am afraid of conflicts. I’m excited about it since Linux has now officially replaced windows on my gaming rig, which is the very last MS computer left in my house.
Hyprland, trying to go back to sway.
I wanted to try Sway and couldn’t get super+q to open a terminal window. I just installed.something else since no time to learn it that day.
So what’s the sway hotkey combo for new terminal? I figured they would be the same.
Sway’s default keybind for opening a terminal is super+return (line 68)
# Start a terminal bindsym $mod+Return exec $termnote also that sway uses the foot terminal by default. (line 17)
# Your preferred terminal emulator set $term footYou can change these in the config.
It’s a good idea to read a bit about a WM from a wiki before use:
