Hyprland 0.45 Compositor Smooths Round Edges, Window Snapping For Floating Windows

[ehansin]

In case anyone wanted to know, Hyprland recently switched away from 'wlroots' to their own lower-level library called 'aquamarine', as in aqua (Latin for water). I am pretty sure a water drop is a fair call here. That was always my take before even knowing the above, but now not much doubts for myself. And sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, just saying

Can we popularize killjoys? Like when you are freely donating your time to the public's interest an a killjoy has to show up to try to steal your joy and smear you.

Why does their logo look like a noose?

lol, the replies to this make it clear that some people here take everything too serious.

Why they need to attack you, and why it gets upvoted so heavily is beyond me.

I'd love to try hyprland but the people it attracts are terrible for some reason.

dude you are psychotic. the fact that you see a noose in that logo says way more about you than it does about hyprland.

It's really psychotic that someone saw a noose in a noose-shaped logo

I find it psychotic that your first instinct was to call someone psychotic.

And I finally realized what that logo reminds me of -- The tool used to plug a tire.

Popularize what with killjoys? Encourage or discourage the killjoy? You didn't specify which. That post is like a TV commercial for Proposition 2 and I'm not sure what a yes or a no vote actually does.

Well, sometimes you need to work with people who you don't agree with.

Having said this, Hyprland looks pretty cool! It's fun going through their repositories, I'll definitely try this out.

[edit: The following refers mainly to luckily now removed content - thanks! I'd delete it as well, but then the posts refering to this one don't make sense. so I'll just make the type smaller and put it at the end ]

Viewing this thread makes me uneasy. I think the first time ever I flagged a post as trivialising racism and murder. Not really what I expected in a rather technical open source forum with so many valuable contributions and members I do look up to. I was confused to see that no one felt the same. However, I then realized that there may be many who feel the same. Possibly even the majority. After all, I myself only silently flagged the post and otherwise left no trace. So, this is what I intend to do here. Leaving a little trace for others. I don't really care if the obvious provocateurs see a reaction as confirmation of their success. It is not. Silence would be. If anyone else is appaled by the trajectory of "jokes"... you're not alone.

Only 17 comments from "window manager has a new release" to "trivializing murder". Great job, everyone!

What did you expect? This is Phoronix after all.

Only 17 comments from "window manager has a new release" to "trivializing murder". Great job, everyone!

Hint: it took 18 comments

Also:

Wayland compositors should not be confused with Xorg window managers.
