Is there a tiling Wayland compositor out there that supports applying custom shaders to windows (similar to picom)? This has been a known limitation for many years. And I brought it up myself with a couple of compositors’ developers, and they told me that it would break direct scan-out, and I told them that I would be fine with that, and then discussions fizzled out.

I also tried an x11vnc alternative I don’t remember the name of, and besides the generally buggy experience, it completely broke when power management kicked on the sever side (turning off the monitor IIRC). So that’s another show stopper, although maybe not as relevant as custom shader support which I need for applying my custom color inversion shaders to specific windows, otherwise, my vision would go bad quickly.

So yeah, I will be sticking with my Awesome WM (+picom +x11vnc) setup for a while too.

It has some. Related Lemmy Issue. I actually remembered wrong. Should have wrote “NOT implemented client-side”.

I’m too busy to double-check, but it is possible that Lemmy is ready for this now.

Because besides the jerking style, PCJ is a “no backlinking” community.

This was blocked by lack of some features in Lemmy.

I lost track of what got implemented over time and what didn’t.

Some/All of these features would be needed:

• Option for a community posts to not appear in local/global feeds.
• Option for a community posts to not appear as cross-posts.
• Option for a community to not appear in instance sidebar recommendations.
• (possible overkill) option to not appear in community search (by name, without !).

First two are the most relevant. I think the first at least got implemented client-side (not sure).

The Rust hype at least makes sense.

In technical context, yes. I’m a Rustacean myself.
In business/marketing context, …

It’s not you who needs it.
It’s for buzzword chasers and cost cutters.

Rust (=> fast and hip)
Shared (=> outsourced)
AI generated (=> robot devs)

Get it?

A reminder that the Servo project has resumed active development since the start of 2023, and is making good progress every month.

If you’re looking for a serious in-progress effort to create a new open, safe, performant, independent, and fully-featured web engine, that’s the one you should be keeping an eye on.

It won’t be easy trying to catch up to continuously evolving and changing web standards, but that’s the only effort with a chance.
