I’m currently testing Fedora KDE on a VM (windows host) before eventually switching over to Linux completely.

    Man i didnt realize how much better Wayland is until I had to use a provided setup for a few weeks.

    The fact that I can’t swipe to switch virtual desktops on xorg was enough to make me question why xorg doesn’t offer such basic things after all the years

      How are you swiping, out of curiosity? I have windows occupying the whole screen.

      I switch workspaces with a keyboard shortcut or by clicking buttons on the panel.

          Oh I see. But I thought such gestures were available a long time ago, I remember apps like Fusuma, and there was talk of adding them to libinput so that every DE could let the user assign actions to gestures.

            Yeah, this is now using the libinput gestures. It’s mainly exciting, because it’s available out-of-the-box, even for non-techies and lazy people (me).

            With general technological advances and I believe Windows having similar gestures, it’s now also rarely the case that touchpad hardware doesn’t support multi-touch input…
