… I haven’t found one that works well with dialog, fixed sized, or modal windows well enough to not get annoying,
This so, so much. I:ve been on Sway (and i3 before) for a long time and this is such a pain in the ass.
Most gui programs that do more than a simple window just don’t work well with them, dialogs filling up half your screen because of tiling, programs with detachable panels that turn into windows cannot be attached again because the main window doesn’t detect it (puddletag is an example I’ve came across recently).
I know I can setup some rules to make the windows float or have the correct behavior, but it’s just too much to fix every single broken dialog I encounter.

Manjaro once again demonstrating they’re not a serious distro/project, hahaha

on I can't use Linux! It's too hard! in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 14 Aug 2026
I’ve heard so too. Might be worth giving Plasma a shot on my current shitbox of a laptop to see if it can handle it. Though that thing (about 6 years old, btw) chokes on anything that involves graphics, so I don’t have any high hopes
Edit: After a few weeks, tried out Plasma on my Fedora setup. Really liked it, everything worked out of the box, feels like using the good parts of the windows ui without the bad parts, just a few small issues here and there (keyboard didn’t work on the lock screen like once or twice). Sadly, the laptop is too crap to run it, constant swapping on zram, everything fell sluggish, it froze once even.

Honestly yes. A few years ago when I was still getting into linux I’d customize the shit out of everything, wm with lengthy configuration, mostly terminal apps, “minimal” ui with custom made themes, and all that.
My current fedora system is almost default Sway with a few convienent shortcuts and a few tweaks, using GUIs where it makes sense or simply because I just want something nice. I just don’t have time or the need for something so customized. Defaults are good.
Heck, I’m even considering switching to Plasma once I get a better PC (gonna need to sell a kidney or two for that to happen tho), since default Sway still requires considerable tweaking and there’s a few quirks I just don’t want to deal with.

Ok this is funny. Like “look bro, we rewrote bun in Rust because it’s ✨Safe✨ and all that”, and they’re not even trying lmao
In all seriousness, part of that issue probably comes from the original code already ignoring the safety features of Zig, and whatever LLM they used to port it just doing the most half-assed thing and doing a literal translation of the code.
The future of software development, ladies and gentlemen
Edit: rust safety
Yes I know unsafe in rust doesn’t mean unsafe code, it just that the compiler trusts you to correctly use the interfaces and references since it won’t check them inside such blocks

So they rewrote poor Zig code into what probably is even poorer Rust code, and from what I’ve seen, using their AI to do it. Yeah, that sounds like they’re getting a fully functional and non-buggy piece of software.
Yeah, they do all have that good-ish looks LLMs generate but are constantly buggy. I remember playing the Puzzle bundle one and quite a few of them weren’t even working properly.
Some issues have insisted on them adding a disclosure on AI usage, let’s hope it does for clarity. But yeah devs just pushing random AI-slop apps all the time seems to be starting to become an issue on f-droid
