Hyprland is now 3 years old since March 16th, happy birthday! :)

Keyboard driven and lightweight Wayland notification daemon for wlroots-based compositors.

Sorry I'm late on this one, I was on holidays.

Wired

Wired is light and fully customizable notification daemon that provides you with powerful and extensible layout tools.

Features

• Layout - position every element how you want it, see wiki for more info.
• Programmable and Interactable Layout Elements - code your own or use layout elements from wired and contributors (accepting pull requests!).
  • Text blocks which scroll.
  • Backgrounds which reflect state (paused, active, extended, etc).
  • Layout elements can fire events on click (open url, etc).
  • More soon.
• First Class Mouse Actions - close, pause, and open urls within a notification with a click.
  • Open an issue if you have ideas of more actions.
• Every notification is a different window - pretty sick of stuff only being able to show one notification at a time honestly.

Simple, local, material design notes.

Features

Take notes

• Write text notes (title and content)
• Take advantage of the advanced formatting options, including checklists
• Undo and redo your changes while editing
• Use the quick action from your home screen to quickly add a note

Organize

• Search though your notes
• Sort your notes by date or title, in ascending or descending order
• Display your notes in a list or a grid view
• Pin your notes
• Recover your deleted notes from the bin

Categorize

• Categorize your notes with labels
• Distinguish your labels with their color
• Pin and hide your labels

Share & backup

• Share text from other applications to add it directly to a note
• Share your notes as text
• Export your notes as JSON, manually or automatically, and import them back
• Export your notes as Markdown

Protect

• Never worry about how your data is handled: it cannot leave y

Starting on January 19, 2025 Facebook's internal policy makers decided that Linux is malware and labelled groups associated with Linux as being "cybersecurity threats". Any posts mentioning DistroWatch and multiple groups associated with Linux and Linux discussions have either been shut down or had many of their posts removed.

We've been hearing all week from readers who say they can no longer post about Linux on Facebook or share links to DistroWatch. Some people have reported their accounts have been locked or limited for posting about Linux.

The sad irony here is that Facebook runs much of its infrastructure on Linux and often posts job ads looking for Linux developers.

Unfortunately, there isn't anything we can do about this, apart from advising people to get their Linux-related information from sources other than Facebook. I've tried to appeal the ban and was told the next day that Linux-related ma

New year, new Hyprland release brought to you by Yours Truly. This update is quite large, so you might want to read these patch notes.

There have been quite a bunch of internal rewrites, mostly around memory safety, the renderer, and animation system. Although performance shouldn't change much, it should improve stability in edge cases. Please do report any regressions you might find, if they aren't reported already.

Notes for packagers

• new dependency: glaze
• I've dropped binary releases. Please use the source to build.

Breaking changes

• master:always_center_master has been replaced with a more flexible master:slave_count_for_center_master

New features

• CMake, Meson: add option controlling hyprpm building
• config: add exec(-onec) with rules and execr(-once) (#8953)
• core/renderer: Add GPU hotplug support (#8980)

yambar is a lightweight and configurable status panel (bar, for short) for X11 and Wayland, that goes to great lengths to be both CPU and battery efficient - polling is only done when absolutely necessary.

It has a number of modules that provide information in the form of tags. For example, the clock module has a date tag that contains the current date.

The modules do not know how to present the information though. This is instead done by particles. And the user, you, decides which particles (and thus how to present the data) to use.

Furthermore, each particle can have a decoration - a background color or a graphical underline, for example.

There is no support for images or icons. use an icon font (e.g. Font Awesome, or Material Icons) if you want a graphical representation.

There are a number of modules and particles builtin. More can be added as plugins. You can even write your own!

To summarize: a bar displays information provided by modules, using pa

GUI wallpaper setter for Wayland and Xorg window managers on Linux. It works as a frontend for popular wallpaper backends like swaybg, swww, wallutils, hyprpaper and feh. Developed by Roman Anufriev since 2023.

Waypaper comes with the usual fill/fit/stretch options included and is particularly useful when testing out wallpapers so that one does not have to write a new command for every CLI tool every single time.

Speaking of the last posts, lets keep it civil guys.
