snac.daltux.net is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
More monkeying around with OpenBSD. I spent a bunch of time getting LXQt working but the themeing was taking too much time so I threw more ram at the VM and installed KDE. The goal was to learn about OpenBSD, not LXQT. Ha.
Lots of the standard apps are there in OpenBSD but I need to find out how to get Librewolf and Waterfox going. Having done zero research, I'm assuming I need to compile from source.
I saw an article out using "Molly" as an alternate Signal Messenger client (xn--gckvb8fzb.com/if-you-must-use-signal-use-molly/). May try it in the future.
The KDE Plasma version is 6.4.5. IIRC KDE is stopping X11 support so I will need to figure out something else I guess. I've seen threads about Wayland on OpenBSD but didn't go down the rabbit hole yet. What little I read implied not ready for prime time.
The VM feels pretty snappy even though the QEMU agent doesn't really help with video options. This is using the VGA driver setup to get a decent resolution.
I really need to get this Jeep back on the road. I miss it.
#OpenBSD #KDE #KDEPlasma #LXQt #VM #QEMU #Librewolf #Waterfox #X11 #Wayland #Signal
browsers are 2-3% faster than in #xenocara
trackpad and trackpoint are not working as expected
whole setup a bit more complicated (starting from tty0, installing extra packages, extra line in fstab, etc)
for this week at least i'm switching back to good old #x11 and #cwm :)

I already had notes on dwm, st, and X11 usage, and
this thread was the motivation to turn them into a
short, standalone document about the trade-offs
around scope, ecosystem complexity, and sustainability.

Acabo de lembrar que essa função existia até mesmo em terminal virtual de texto, quando suportasse mouse. Aliás, será que ainda é possível ativar o mouse nele? 💭
Enfim, será que alguém, sinceramente, prefere ter exclusivamente o esquema mais trabalhoso de selecionar texto, Ctrl+C com teclado ou clicar com direito pra escolher a opção com o próprio apontador, depois posicionar o cursor de teclado onde quer colar pra finalmente pressionar Ctrl+V ou botão direito e escolher a opção de colar?
Isso faz ou fazia muita falta quando obrigado a usar algo sem essa facilidade.
Pergunto pois dizem que #GNOME estaria considerando desativar essa função por padrão e penso se apenas eu acho a possibilidade absurda.
