Products that do what Tiling Shell – Bringing Modern Window Management to Gnome does
Hey HN, I’m excited to share Tiling Shell, an open-source GNOME extension I created to bring a more modern, user-friendly window management experience to Linux. Many existing solutions feel outdated and lack in user experience, so my goal with Tiling Shell is to bring a fresh, integrated approach that works well for both newcomers and advanced users. Demo video: https://youtu.be/RBoO5lgR1kA?t=20 by Omg Ubuntu Key Features: - Easily manage, edit, create, and delete custom layouts with a built-in editor. - Works seamlessly across multiple monitors, even with different scaling…

I have been using omarchy on my tower since nearly a year now, shortly after it was released first. I really love the experience I am having with it but I still use my macbook for daly work, so I wanted to recreate a similar experience on it. Thats why I created omacosy, a setup for tiling windows, custom menu bar, some themes from omarchy, focus follows mouse, focus rings around windwos, some mac flavors with trackpad events and a custom mission control overview for your workspaces. I used AeroSpace over yabai for the tiling window manager because I didnt wanted to compromise on SIP which…

This is incredibly over-engineered, but it was quite a fun process. :)

Every Wayland compositor I could find is a tiling one: sway, river, Hyprland, dwl, niri. If you want windows that float and overlap with titlebars and a taskbar, the way IceWM does it, there's almost nothing. That is Steppewm

I thought it'd be interesting to use Linux PSI (Pressure Stall Information) for an LLM runtime to trim the KV cache. This is mainly useful imo for edge devices like the Jetson Orin super nano kit which have unified memory. I haven't benched much, but plan to do so more over time and see if I can make a real use of it as I run local LLMs. Let me know if it makes sense :P (I of course vibed this idea)

You know that old TI calculator you used in high school, then put in a box and forgot about? Have you ever wished you had an operating system for your calculator with preemptive multitasking, dynamic memory management, a tree filesystem conforming to the FHS, and all the comforts of Unix? Well, good news: that's totally a thing that exists. I've been working on my kernel for about three and a half years now and I'm looking for new contributors to help out. It's written entirely in z80 assembly, and it's both challenging and fun to work on. There's an IRC channel for contributors or people…
