    Who is the downvoter lol - if you don’t want bears news unsubscribe. I would think anybody interested in the bears would enjoy seeing the grades, even if you don’t think they mean much. We need more content on lemmy, not less!

    I hadn’t brought this up before but there seems to be people just downvoting every post I make in this community





  • the ellipses at the end of this is throwing me off lol, like there’s something you’re implying. so what? what on earth is your point lol - so that’s the solution? every monitor and tv should have the ability to rotate 90° to accommodate for the masses’ laziness/ignorance/whatever the reason is? and people should get off of their couch and walk up to their TV and manually rotate it depending on the media they are viewing?

    all of this that despite the fact that yes, the screen would now be the right orientation, but it still doesn’t address the fact that portrait is just inherently the inferior choice for video (unless the video is of a single person standing upright and not moving i guess)


































  • Screen sharing is still a pain in my experience. I’m a tiling window manager guy. I used i3 for years. Switched to sway, but have issues because xdg-desktop-portal-wlr can’t do application sharing, only entire screen sharing. Well I have a ultra ultra wide screen, so people can’t see shit on normal monitors when I try to share my screen. So at work, where I regularly have video conferences, I’m constantly changing my screen resolution so that I can screen share something that looks OK to others, but 1980x1024 looks ridiculous on my end on my ultrawide.

    Hyperland can share applications and even regions, which is awesome, and I tested it successfully on my home gentoo system, but it only worked on Firefox. Didn’t work for my jitsi electron app and didn’t work in qutebrowser. And hyperland isn’t easily installable on Ubuntu which is what I run for work because my work computer needs to just werk (gentoo is probably even more stable but I can’t mess with long complie upgrades at work and some corporate software is only available as .debs)

    So yea my life would honestly be easier if I just stuck with i3 everywhere but I’m stubbornly trying to use Wayland because I know it’s the future but don’t kid yourselves, it is a pain in the ass


  • I’m having a hard time getting into software that doesn’t use traditional folder structures. I wish I could point immich to my NAS Pictures folder and have multiple places to seen the same exact files, immich when I want, nextcloud maybe, or just a file browser pointed to my NAS.

    I’m having the same issue with paperless-ngx. I set it up and it’s cool, but why can’t I just point it to my Documents folder? I’m getting all of my 2023 taxes ready and now I have to upload them into two places, paperless-ngx for my records and Nextcloud so I can ultimately share a link with my accountant.

    Am I old man yelling at cloud-ing right now? Why get rid of basic folder structures I just don’t get it
