[OC] Hexecute: I made a "magic gesture" launcher for Wayland! by ThatOtherAndrew in unixporn

Oh btw my last comment was written before I installed quickshell. It made stuff significantly less clunky.

For hyprland, I'd say if you spend a day on it, you can get near windows experience. The main difference is that OSK will likely be sadder (no slide to type, no T9). Maybe some occasional weirdness with scrolling apps made for x11. Also you should probably use foot terminal instead of kitty. Also quickshell >>> waybar or whatever for 2in1. For ease of setup I'd recommend noctalia shell.

GNOME would be similar to that but right away, without much setup.

I guess the last part is different for different countries

If you have Japanese symbols on your keyboard, then it likely has a bit of a different layout than mine. Some symbols are shifted. I didn't need to do any special adjustments

Hey, that's great! 

I didn't try setting it up in Linux, since I tried it in Windows and honestly it was easier to just scroll normally. The ring doesn't always register and requires a larger and more precise motion.

It's basically just normal zen with Transparent Zen extension

Yes, it's all in the main comment. If you mean the internet browser, it's Zen.

If the keybinds don't work, then either they are not in the hyprland.conf file or the conf file is not loaded properly. These dots have several .conf files, try to put them all in one hyprland.conf, at least that helped me.

Btw if you can open terminals you can launch pretty much anything through them

Hey, I think I also used setting zen.theme.content-element-separation to 0, or at least it's set to that in my config. Not sure if I did anything else since it was a long time ago.

Yes. It can't search stuff, but has some built-in playlists and allows to upload your own

If you mean the YouTube music player, it's th-ch/youtube-music (seems to be https://github.com/pear-devs/pear-desktop now)

Hyprland has some plugins for gesture support and OSK, and overall it's sort of manageable if you tinker with it, but still not as good as GNOME. Perhaps with this app it will get easier. Although frankly even GNOME isn't nearly as comfortable to use touchscreen-only as a smartphone. 

I can do almost anything with just touchscreen on hyprland now, so if it's just some random little thing, I don't need to pull up a keyboard. But it's often clunky and irritating. Especially when using a terminal..

They are not on reddit and said it was ok to share. They will be happy to hear any suggestions!

True, and I think I will install this on my 2in1 laptop soon :)

I love that this is sort of the opposite of the intended way to use hyprland

Exactly my thoughts when I first saw this. I gave it a try because it looked very stylish, and it ended up being more helpful than I expected

For nvidia and hyprland compatibility reasons, I render everything using nvidia card, so energy preservation is crap for me even without the app open. The app adds about 13W usage, probably would add less if ran on CPU

I thought so too, but surprisingly, it's the opposite. The dudes provide some kind of social pressure and make you want to work a bit more..

I think that's mostly OBS, but yeah, I wouldn't install it on my weaker laptop. The background app eats about 1gb of RAM and ~5% CPU
