eyy i just installed a pleroma server yesterday! it's pretty dope

i love suckless. i'm devoted to dwm and ive been using the same compile of it since like 2012

I'm very happy with Suckless Image Viewer (sxiv) and a fork of the Suckless Terminal that does the solarized color scheme (st-solarized-scrollback in the Arch User Repository). Minimalist, keyboard-friendly, and capable. Good software!

You want fast?

Miss me with that gay shit

But since we're talking about similar stuff, lf is literally a faster ranger.

I'd switch to nnn, but ranger is fast enough for me.

I'm currently using urxvt, since it was one of the ones compatible with w3m-img which is used to display picture previews in my file manager ranger.

I want to move over to st, though, since it's a suckless tool and I like the suckless philosophy.

Currently it's Mint with a Mate-i3 combo. But I want to move over to Artix, so that's what's on my Laptop.

I don't use many GUI applications, since they are too limited. I use ranger: https://ramble.pw/f/linux/1213/ranger-the-aesthetic-way-to-manage-files-on-linux

If you're more or less happy with Thunar, give PCManFM a try. Mostly the same layout so it should feel familiar, with more power user options that don't complicate the UI. In a debian based distro: sudo apt install pcmanfm

Dolphin on my KDE Plasma + i3wm build

I use a ti8ling windows manager. usually

Understood. I am hoping to be able to get some custom development done in time, and that is certainly something that doesn't behave in a way most people would think it would, so it's being added as a feature request.

Thanks. The way it is, the notification will stay even after having responded to it, which I don't see the benefit of.

Do I have to manually clear notifications?

Yeah. Which is handy for people like me who reads a message and then responds hours later. But obviously it should be an end user option to clear upon read or clear manually.

I'll add it to the to do list.

ImageMagick is mostly a CLI tool, but it does have GUI functionality. You don't use it by opening a GUI application that is called ImageMagick, though. It's an assortment of tools.

That's what I'm talking about. I'm not exclusively using shortcuts so that approach didn't solve the problem.

I can import and export jpg files just fine on gimp 2.10.
If you're talking about not being able to "Save" or "Save As" a jpg, all you have to do is select "Export" or "Export As" (Ctrl+E and Ctrl+Shift+E) from the same menu or just replace the Ctrl+S for the same.

Never been a big fan of gimp, even though I used it almost exclusively for image editing. I'll have to look into ImageMagick.

Also... why doesn't the notification thingie in the top disappear after answering the thing that I was notified about? Do I have to manually clear notifications?

Since Gimp 2.8 the software refuses to let you open a jpg and save it as jpg. You have to use export instead and jump through some hoops. If you try to save, Gimp tells you no can do. In a really condescending way, too. Pissed me off so much the first time, I immediately rolled it back. Since then I've tried a few more times, but this weird workflow of opening jpgs and having to export them doesn't work for me.

It's an image editor as far as I'm concerned. It's supposed to edit images. Not create elaborate projects worth saving. I open, I edit, I save (to jpg) and I'm done. The stupid export thing will also sometimes keep a useless xfc file. Really aggravating. Like you're not supposed to use the thing as an image editor. Devs have also been extremely conceited when it was pointed out to them how stupid this change was and basically told everyone raising concerns they should use something else. Therefore, this project is pretty much dead to me.

Wait, what? There was a version without jpg support? I've been using it for years and have never noticed that.

Currently rocking GIMP 2.10.8 for reference.

Heh,.. I never forgave them for the "I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you save as *jpg" bullshit, so I stuck with 2.6 and will continue to do so. Possibly I'm completely moving over to ImageMagick, though. Already use it for most of my image editing.

It has improved but there are still few small bugs here and there but I put that down to the fact I upgraded on top of cinnamon install instead of going fresh. Still worth the look.

If I make the time, my new year's resolution is to get a LinuxFromScratch box up and running. From a skim of the book, it seems a bit tedious tho.
