I worry about Wayland for the features it drops from X11. Wayland will never have xdotool support, due to its security model. I worry about onscreen keyboards for drawing tablets and screen readers for the blind.
Is fractional scaling a standard feature in GNOME now? Last time I needed it, it was still an experimental feature I had to enable.
Calling Linux's version of DVR a "viable video editor" is rich given that a. It doesn't work on most distros (it's designed for Rocky Linux. It throws a fit on any other distro. You need to jerry-rig it), requiring a whole thang to get it to play nice; and that b. It doesn't support any of the video formats and codecs people actually want to use, for seemingly no reason, since the Windows version supports those formats just fine.
KDENLiVe is like, fine for a simple project, but you quickly start hitting your head on its limitations. Plus its UI sucks just in general.
Video editing is the reason I keep a small Windows install, because sometimes I need to do video stuff for work and -- Sorry. No. No Linux video editor even compares to the likes of Premiere and Vegas. They're still barely above Windows Movie Maker.
GIMP is a perfectly serviceable image editor, and yes, GIMP 3 is a major improvement -- But it's kinda missing a lot of things Photoshop users take for granted, and its UI and hotkeys are very idiosyncratic, which makes migrating very hard (... I sorta have the opposite problem though. I learned image editing on GIMP and all my muscle memory is GIMP oriented, so even when I'm on my 'time to work' windows install, I only really open PS if I desperately need one of its exclusive functions)
Fractional Scaling (Done)
Can you please tell my computer that? ๐
Can someone more plugged in than me show me what I gotta do to get that 'Discord Wayland sharing' working? I literally installed Vencord a month ago because every time I tried to share a window or my screen on discord it would hard crash.
just download the canary of linux (beta branch). Itll come to stable after. https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035675191-Discord-Testing-Clients
Requirement: let me play the video games I want to play that have anticheat
A stiff requirement
This is less of a Linux problem and more of a kernel access problem. Microsoft hinted at shutting down kernel access, but I've learned not to hold my breath about anything Microsoft says. Personally, I made the sacrifice. I have plenty of other games I like to play that don't have kernel-level anticheat.
HDR is almost there not quite though.
Dolby Atmos is the other thing I'd love to see working
Can't wait for Wayland to be ready in cinnamon. Possibly mean that literally as X is a laggy mess with fractional scaling. Maybe fedora with gnome will be my first distro hop.
As someone with extremely limited Linux experience I feel like I just read another language.
"Canโt wait for Frooperdum to be ready in meeperpeep. Possibly mean that literally as Momo is a laggy mess with Weeble trailing. Maybe goomervoobo with hermanin will be my first sprunk popple."
:P
+1 for kdenlive!! Kickass software
wayland clipboard
Lol
Also kdenlive was still a pain for me to work with, but that was mostly because of its layout, shorcuts, and wording of some features.
Otherwise yeah, we've made it pretty far.
Still no viable alternative to Adobe lightroom imo
Neither darktable or RawTherapee doing it for you?
I still have to try them out when I have some raw photos to edit.
Hint: :q!
