If I have to do a note taking app, I have to offer like X version apps for every compositor inexistence?

I designed my app so it can use blur, so do I have to deliver another version without blur for sway?

(which is both slower, because we’ve recomposited the same stuff twice, and a security hole because the overlay has full access to your windows)

in fact, it’s even EASIER to implement blur on wayland than on xorg, because the way it’d work on xorg is that there’s an “overlay” on top of all the applications which reads and recomposes the output

Then be my guesr and help if it is that esay, right?😂

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 00:57:57
on wayland, the implementation would happen directly

i don’t care about blur, so why would i bother

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 00:58:17
i spend my time doing other things

Because you have to fix it yourself? I found amazing how you complainnabout the suckless way and still fail to realize that way on wayland’s way?😂

implement it once, and it’s done forever

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 00:59:17
(under that compositor, anyway)
Jamerive 2022-09-18 01:00:14
But my point it is that you have until now 3 compositord and counting and no a fair grpund of how/what it is implemented and that is a nightmare for the user/dev that need thrird party software
Jamerive 2022-09-18 01:00:33
Then, people complain of the lack of software in wayland!

data between pipes is buffered

👍 I removed the sleep 1 and it seems to work properly and now I dunno why this sleep has something to do with preventing sed from reading the first pipe buffer.

3 compositors?

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:00:59
there’s plenty more

Sed will buffer data till it has 4k of data

doesn’t /p bypass that?

here’s the thing: applications shouldn’t care about compositors

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:01:36
by design
smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:01:49
they should only care about the wayland specification and the interfaces provided
smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:02:11

that’s entirely wrong

you’re missing the point

learn these functions. congratulations, you now have support for ALL the compositors

No? It just tells sed that it has to print it.

wrong.

Let me give you an example. I designed my app so it can use blur, so do I have to deliver another version without blur for sway?

smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:04:17
i’m not sure why any specific app should be responsible for implementing blur

Terminal app

Locker apps
Jamerive 2022-09-18 01:04:43
Etcera…
smol_mazunki 2022-09-18 01:05:00
my point being, wouldn’t it be more logical for any app to say “hey wayland, i’d like to be blurred now”
