yeah, that's understandable. i'd never thought about it that way before.

personally i use enby as a way to say that i am in the middle / don't really care.

i think the issue comes from the fact that saying non-binary means specifically non-{man,woman}. whereas i've always interpreted it as just non-"specific gender".

to me it's the etc. of gender labels, but i realise that not everyone that i think it describes would want to identify with it.

(and that means it becomes it's own label, and now we have to figure out what to call everyone_else all over again. (maybe the whole idea of gender labels was rigged from the start))

i'd probably use tabs if they weren't so massive by default.

do people actually use 8 space wide tabs? if so, what for?

source engine aesthetic was peak. i still love it, and nothing's been able to replicate it. some games have tried, but the source feel is just unique.

i always love stacking books in barney's interrogation room and trying to shove as many objects as i can in to kleiner's mini teleporter.

i also remember having to wait for headcrabs to finish their death animation before i could move forward in hl1,, so that's fun :P

i prefer my binaries to stay inside the computer. binary does not belong in brain >n<

they are very similar. my only problem with hyprland was that the mouse is still required for some things, and it's a bit annoying having to switch back and forth.

on sway, everything can be done by keyboard. i still use the mouse a lot, but there's less switching in the middle of tasks.

it's a little difference, but it was worth it for me.

there's also the drama about some people being transphobic (i think?) in the hyprland discord, but i try not to pay too much attention to that.

hyprland accomplishes it's goal of being pretty (and i got some really cool screenshots), but sway is pure functionality, and it's damn good at it.

i feel a little more comfortable commenting here.

being a smaller community, i feel like i'm actually contributing when i post something, instead of just adding to a sea of noise

it also helps that i've come up with this new "persona". i'm able to be more of the real me than i can with my main account.

it's like half way between anonimity and publicity. this account has very little connection to my meatspace existance, so i feel safe to say anything. but at the same time i'm not gonna act like some 4chan user. halfway_neko's a good girl lol

ye. i've been using wayland since forever.

started on hyprland, and then moved to sway, but it's been an almost perfect experience for me

sometimes i have to install a different version of a package or smth, but otherwise everything works fine.
