Mark Stosberg<p>More issues with <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/hyprland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hyprland</span></a> ecosystem</p><p>- hyprland-easyfocus either displayed tiny text or a giant empty block, while easyfocus-hyprland lacks support for multi-monitor support and other features.</p><p>I'm pretty happy with the desktop I have dialed with <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/SwayFx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SwayFx</span></a> so I'm returning to that will check in again on Hyprland another time.</p>

ScotsBear 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿<p><span>I love Hyprland. But until such time as I'm ready to start ricing the beast to bulk up my daily conveniences I'm now back with good old familiar old KDE Plasma for those comfortable worn-slipper snuggles. In fact, it's been fun pushing KDE to mimic some of the workflows and keybinds Hyprland has, proving yet again what a fabulously customisable old thing she is.<br><br>Hyprland is still there, but a background session instead of the main experience. She'll keep until I'm ready and hey, she's always there to play around in if I need to. Best of Both Worlds. </span>​:blobinlove:​<span><br><br></span><a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/KDE" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KDE</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/Hyprland" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hyprland</a> <a href="https://kitty.social/tags/DESisters" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DESisters</a></p>
