If dmenu was made by a nazi I wouldn’t give a shit because its just dmenu but hyprland is so clearly made by a pack of /g/ zoomers who want their desktops to look like 1337 haXors without any access to the low level systems. Its all discord script kiddie hype-beasts.
Its a tiling window manager made by people who never used a tiling window manager on X11. I know I’m sounding like an elitist boomer but this shit really violates some core Unix principals of making small composable utilities that empower the user. RiverWM or Sway keep to this philosophy.
that’s like 75-80% of all development these days. bunch of discord scriptkiddie crapware that’s not even worth the headache to “configure it right”.
I shouldn’t have to configure shit, it should just fucking work.
I blame silicon valley startups and vtubers. these low effort wannabe developers just want to make a name for themselves to move up the ladder. problem is, when everybody is artificially inflating their hype-blimps something is bound to crash and burn.
we used to write software to solve problems, not make up problems to solve with software.
each year I get closer to retirement I’m grateful I won’t have to put up with these egotistical inflatable engineers or their “solutions” for any longer than I have to.
short attention spans with zero integrity when it comes to mistreating or abusing their viewers. the majority of successful vtubers are toxic and corrosive socialites that simply want to be at the front of attention, striving to be the “top influencer”.
this kind of cancer only bled into development because they are both positions that rely on advanced technology.
now you have devs that treat their jobs like influencers do and “swoop in to save the day” only to fuck you when they moved on to greener pastures.
I’ve personally seen it happen at least 3 times in five years.
anyone who claims themselves as a “rockstar”, “forward thinker”, “innovator” or “disruptor” is a horrible developer and needs to go away. we don’t want you.
if they can’t explain to me why their shitty changes increased memory consumption by 25% they’re not a dev, they’re a script kiddie.
that said, greenhorns need apply. you’re ok but don’t get cocky. watch and learn. asking questions is good, don’t share your opinions unless you know enough that you can defend them. and don’t get bent out of shape when someone tells you your idea isn’t going to work.

What do vtubers have to do with this?

Whats your opinion on qtile?
Qtile is great because its a program-your-own WM. I think awesomewm is the same and offers Wayland support now.
