Don't be fooled by the name. Slacking off on Slackware Current means 92 updates in 2 weeks. Mesa, kernel, hyprland, rust, you name it. On track again (for now 🤣 )

I feel it's coming to an end. Distrohopping, that is. Just noted I actually might have one NUC too much. KDE, nwg-hyprland, niri and dwm are all running on Slackware. And it all works great. Slackware covers all bases and more, and is rock solid. What more do i need? The laptop has been booked for the FreeBSD KDE experiment.That's it.Done.

Why do i keep blabbing on about the liveslaks and repos of @… ? And how Slackware can be very much up to date and current?
Because the day i read about an update of niri on the web it automagically also shows up in the slackeroni repos. Thanks Jay!

Home. And the advantage of the kitchen sink.
The dwm part of my tilers setup, combining sway, hyprland, niri and dwm.
Slackware is one of the very few distros that enables you easily to have both wayland as well as x11 in one setup.
Dots on my Codeberg @ thesaigoneer/slackware-tilers.

Your efforts are only as good as your last scrot.

Also me: updating hyprland and 6.16.8 kernel on Slackware.
Then: log in into dwm

Heaping praise on Slackware doesn't hide the fact that setting up LUKS, on EFI and with grub is a glorious pain-in-my-you-know-what. Most write-ups are outdated or reqiure adding keys to kernels or what-have-you. This isn't 2012. Recommends requested, specifically for Slackware!

Off to the races! Tested and all, another great slacker0ni production.
Thanks Jay!

Geek-speak. We chit-chat a lot about KDE 6.5, but if you have Slackware Current , kernel 6.17.4, Ghostty terminal, Mango (previously MaoMao) windowmanager DankMaterialShell running quite easily (and Niri is there also), you know you're onto something 😜

Nope. A good night's sleep brought clarity. No new immutable Obelix Saigon.
Stick to the mantra of less to none GitHub.
Slackware, FreeBSD, Codeberg and the occasional Gentoo offer more than enough to serve this geezer.

Service announcement (for myself and all ye geeks):
For all that newish Wayland KDE Hypr *SD Niri Atomic-or-composable dinit shizzle:
I love it all (you know I do), but nothing comes close atm to my Slackware dwm in productivity. And fun!
It-just-works.
Realitycheck ✅
