i3 doesn’t work with Wayland because it’s an X11 WM… You wouldn’t complain about X11 because Sway doesn’t work on it.
Btw, Sway is a drop-in Wayland replacement for i3 if you want to move to Wayland. i3 configs work with Sway; it’s an i3 clone.
If you mean political leaders targeted by imperialist propaganda, most of them have written books or other writings that you can read and get accounts from their own mouth. Mao probably fits your bill (vilified by Western media) and his writing is very accessible and easy to read (he wrote largely for illiterate peasants) so that might be something to interest you.
No but not due to hostility. We just don’t talk anymore the way you don’t talk to some old friends anymore, ie just drifted apart. All my breakups have luckily been amicable.
aerc+mbsync+notmuch
If you want a GUI, I was using Evolution before aerc and I was happy with it. I just prefer keyboard navigation which naturally is well supported by any TUI application.
What are you using that requires a selfie? I can’t think of any services or apps I use that require a selfie. It can’t be that hard to avoid if I’ve never encountered one.

I learnt to code before I was 10, why not? Also why not mention the word “syntax”? Kids are just less experienced, but they’re not stupid. They can understand a concept if you explain it to them.
With soft forks you still need to merge upstream changes and figure out what to do when they’re incompatible with your changes, do your own testing of your fork once you’ve merged the changes, etc.
Again, stupid chauvinist take. Not everyone speaks English and not everyone uses English pronunciations. Also, cwtch is a relatively popular loanword too, plenty of English speakers have learnt to say it.
You know most of the world finds English spellings hard to pronounce, right? You’re speaking in a language notorious for its inconsistent pronunciations (see “-ough”).
It’s also particularly fucked up to mock Welsh like that given that Welsh is one of the many languages with a long history of children being violently reprimanded for speaking their native language by English people.
unpronounceable
To whom? Should Welsh people not use privacy software too? Stupid ass chauvinist position
Automatic daily updates for system packages. Automatic daily container updates with watchtower. I normally have things pinned to a reasonable major or minor release, so I do manual upgrades for new OS release branches and usually pin to a major version for Docker containers but depends on the container.
But then you have no need for the umbrella if it’s not raining. It just becomes dead weight.
For Q2: I would recommend your native layout. I’ve not tried US QWERTY but I tried DVORAK many moons ago because it’s “better”, but I found it’s better to be good at one layout than to try split your efforts. If you’re not doing something where speed is crucial, just use what you’re used to. If your keyboard layout is not good for your purposes (e.g. typing a character you need often for the programming language you’re using, is difficult on your layout), you could remap individual characters or maybe there’s a layout similar to your native one but better for programming. But no need to use US QWERTY specifically. Also as another commenter said, typing speed isn’t that crucial for programming. I find I’m always limited by thinking speed, not typing speed.
The main disadvantage is that it’s less automated, and also you don’t get automatic updates without any other package management system in place. If you’re using something like e.g. source packages from the AUR then that solves both those problems and there’s no downsides (beyond extra computational power/time you spend waiting) so long as the package maintainer does their job correctly.
Can it mess with my system in any way?
Not… really? I guess if you’re downloading random tarballs off the internet and running make install without checking the integrity or trustworthiness of what you’re downloading then you could get a virus. But if you’re certain the source you’re getting is legitimate, then I suppose the only way building from source could “mess up your system” is if you mess up your system libraries or something whilst trying to install dependencies.
I also use River. I’d say most Hyprland setups are generic and low-quality (what you’d call “slop”) but if it floats your boat go for it.
I think possibly Reddit might have more setups similar to yours, given that Lemmy is smaller. I still see people use the various X11 WMs and have more clean-looking Wayland setups, though, not sure where you’ve been looking.
If you just want inspiration, just look for like, anything other than Hyprland. Maybe you could search for BSD since I’ve never seen a BSD setup with Hyprland or all these flashy effects.
I guess my bike? Have saved loads of money on bus tickets and it’s much more reliable too.
Sewing machine pays for itself quite quickly as paying a tailor to repair your clothes is like 1/3 the cost of a brand new sewing machine, so just repair like 3 items of clothing to get your money back.
People may be aware of a China-specific instance who are on .ml though. It’s not like you’re incapable of knowing about lemmy instances unfederated with your own
Do you have a Ryzen CPU by any chance? I had an issue like this for ages and it turns out it was a faulty Ryzen power state that was disabled by default on Windows, but not on Linux. If this happens to be your issue, there are ways you can disable the power state in software: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Ryzen#Soft_lock_freezing
English is my third language, but I read a lot of English books as a kid and spent a lot of time in English-speaking circles. I don’t feel disadvantaged compared to a native speaker as I’m fluent and have been speaking English for a long time.
