And there was me thinking that was a mint problem...but it's never broken nearly badly enough to force a reinstall. It's just weird not being able to do a full upgrade unless you temporarily uninstall some packages.

Just switched from Alacritty, kitty+zsh rocks. Feels faster than alacritty, and the tutorialization of the default config is great. And it's wildly configurable.

Where the heck is the battery pack? The floor in the back seems pretty low, and no space in that tiny hood.

Also, I'm astounded DeJoy is still postmaster general after all this time.

Ahhh yeah I meant theming. My bad. And that would be easier ofc.

Ignoring the original post, I wanted to pick up on what you said right at the end.

Something I've never understood is, what impact is using iced going to have on app compatiblity? Are we going to need compatibility layers for GTK and QT, like with Cinnamon displaying QT apps, with the associated jankiness?

Check for a ~/.config/chromium folder and delete it. dnf doesn't seem to have an equivalent to apt purge chromium which would be the other thing to do (while the package is installed).

Yeah, most dead scripts have Unicode, specifically because how the hell would you write academic papers about them in this day and age otherwise? Even old Irish Ogham:

ᚅᚖᚙᚗ

The line is a convention, because ogham was originally written on the corner of a stone stela.

For anyone else who was wondering, it's major releases only, and so far it's been:

• The Luggage
• Twoflower
• Rincewind
• Weatherwax
• Vetinari

Not sure Havelock would look kindly at being left til 5th, but you can't please everyone.

I'm getting that with Gmail and 2 google sheets open (just as an example workload), my system says Zen uses 899 MB of memory, while Firefox uses 1261 MB. However, the way they split tasks into different processes (or at least the way my system monitor groups them) seems to be different, so I'm not sure how much of that difference is real.

Looking at the browsers task manager, they report about the same amount of memory by the browser itself, and for tab handling FF seems to grab more memory when opened, then decrease over time, whereas Zen seems to have a more consistent memory consumption. Sheets tabs use equivalent memory in both, and Gmail uses about 20% more memory in Zen. Both use an insignificant amount of CPU, of course.

Zen does feel more responsive, but it's not a dealbreaker. Good to know the customizations aren't causing catastrophic resource usage though.

Edit: My only other thing I find wierd is that its kinda hard to close tabs. You have to use the right-click menu -- even using the 'c' keyboard shortcut only selects it, and hitting it again moves to another option!

Hmmm this feels like Vivaldi built on Firefox. I like the tiling for tabs! Overall pretty good, would like to see the tab tiling separators smaller, but that's a small gripe. Looking forward to see where this goes!

I just use Zettlr (a markdown editor optimized for writing research papers). I wish it wasn't an electron app, as it's paggy as hell sometimes on Linux, but it's the best balance I've found between features, ease of use, and stability.

I've used Xournal++ and Write, both worked pretty well. Saber also looks promising.

It's going to come down to how the program handles smoothing of the pen input, which is going to differ based on how noisy your tablets data is, and on your handwriting.
