2022-02-14 19:14:12 +0100 <galactic_starfis> <Solid> "mh, indeed" <- We could always just mark the old implementation as deprecated, and migrate people over a few version numbers.
2022-02-14 19:14:36 +0100 <galactic_starfis> Given the release speed, I think 1 major vnum, or a few minor ones would do the trick.
2022-02-14 19:15:02 +0100 <galactic_starfis> The only issue would be older posts not getting refreshed.
2022-02-14 19:15:08 +0100 <galactic_starfis> (that I can see, anyway)
2022-02-14 19:15:10 +0100 <geekosaur> but we get grumps over deprecating stuff even at the kinda glacial speed we move at
2022-02-14 19:15:24 +0100 <galactic_starfis> hm
2022-02-14 19:16:45 +0100 <geekosaur> people setup their configs and leave them for years and then get smacked with deprecations 10 years later and don't like it
2022-02-14 19:30:49 +0100 <Solid> yes
2022-02-14 19:31:14 +0100 <Solid> also, we have no idea how people respond to deprecations and removal of things because (seemingly) no one has tried 0.17.0 yet
2022-02-14 19:31:37 +0100 <Solid> which introduces very visible deprecations (via xmessage)
2022-02-14 19:35:38 +0100 <liskin> Solid: why do you think no one has tried 0.17.0?
2022-02-14 19:36:31 +0100 <liskin> it's just linux distros that are behind; bsds updated and many people who build it from git have presumably updated too in recent months
2022-02-14 20:13:59 +0100 <Solid> liskin: maybe I'm overestimating the number of people who are using xmonad through their system's package manager
2022-02-14 20:14:07 +0100 <Solid> (or the number of people who use xmonad in general :)
2022-02-14 20:14:20 +0100 <Solid> but my feeling is that they outnumber the "I install from source" crowd quite a bit
2022-02-14 20:16:45 +0100 <liskin> maybe I'm just underestimating your interpretation of "no one" :-)
2022-02-14 20:17:31 +0100 <geekosaur> Solid, I think it's smaller than you think, just because we've tended to go so long between releasesthat lots of people have had to switch to git to get functionality or bugfixes
2022-02-14 20:17:56 +0100 <geekosaur> in practice we're kinda rolling release
2022-02-14 20:18:23 +0100 <liskin> I think that some (possibly most) of my friends install via "cabal install --lib xmonad", which does give you 0.17.0 these days
2022-02-14 20:18:57 +0100 <liskin> but stack(age) still doesn't :-/
2022-02-14 20:19:19 +0100 <geekosaur> stack'll get there eventually
2022-02-14 20:19:42 +0100 <Solid> the people I know IRL who use xmonad (which is so cool, btw, and none of them were converted by me :>) are all still on 0.15/0.16
2022-02-14 20:19:55 +0100 <geekosaur> we'll have to wait out the bigger fish they're frying, like aeson 2 which they'veonly just gotten too (who knows when they'll get to text 2 :)
2022-02-14 20:21:36 +0100 <liskin> hm, I think I also haven't really converted anyone
2022-02-14 20:21:44 +0100 <liskin> it's more like they converted me :-)
2022-02-14 20:21:51 +0100 <geekosaur> I make a lousy evangelist
2022-02-14 20:21:56 +0100 <liskin> yep, same here
2022-02-14 20:22:13 +0100 <geekosaur> we get our converts from the likes of distrotube :)

2022-02-14 20:46:57 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> Hi guys, so I've been using xmonad for about an year and thinking to try some other WM, which one do you guys recommend?
2022-02-14 20:47:03 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> I'm thinking qtile or i3-gaps

2022-02-14 20:53:22 +0100 <burp> but I haven't used any other than xmonad
2022-02-14 20:54:06 +0100 <burp> very briefly dwm I think
2022-02-14 20:54:13 +0100 <Solid> c209e6dc-4d76-47: the advice if to stay with xmonad of course!
2022-02-14 20:54:42 +0100 <geekosaur> I'm trying to figure out why they came *here* to ask
2022-02-14 20:55:42 +0100 <burp> well, when you started with the best (xmonad), maybe you have to test a couple of others to apreciate it :)

2022-02-14 21:40:47 +0100 <geekosaur> oh.we got acomplaint about logging being a potentilaproblem with the EU's GDPR directive (data privacy)
2022-02-14 21:41:26 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Is that unique to this room?
2022-02-14 21:41:49 +0100 <geekosaur> no, #haskell has a similar warning and probably some others do similar things
2022-02-14 21:42:09 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> I see
2022-02-14 21:42:17 +0100 <geekosaur> nobody's quite sure how the GDPR applies to IRC logging, and nobody wants to be the one to test it in court

2022-02-14 21:43:35 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Could you please help me with something? Is it possible to make a key bind for switching to the last window, even if it was on another workspace (i.e. switch to that workspace instead of switching a window)
2022-02-14 21:45:21 +0100yauhsien(~Yau-Hsien@61-231-32-166.dynamic-ip.hinet.net) (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
2022-02-14 21:47:12 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> E.g: if I have gimp and firefox on workspace 1 and the last focused window was firefox, then I can switch to it with super+tab, but if firefox was on ws 2, then super+tab will switch to ws 2 instead
2022-02-14 21:47:13 +0100 <geekosaur> nothing "canned" for that unless you count https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.0/docs/XMonad-Actions-CycleRecentWS.html#v…
2022-02-14 21:48:05 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> That's the second half of it, so I was wondering if it's possible to have a dual function on one key bind
2022-02-14 21:48:34 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> So that it checks first if the last window was on the same ws
2022-02-14 21:48:51 +0100 <liskin> unknownbeing[m]: might be easiest to just use https://github.com/sagb/alttab with -d 1
2022-02-14 21:48:57 +0100 <geekosaur> you'd have to record the last window. currently that's only kept per workspace
2022-02-14 21:51:24 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Hmm
2022-02-14 21:52:01 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> geekosaur: So could I code my own function that does what I described?
2022-02-14 21:52:17 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> I'd rather not resort to a third-party package
2022-02-14 21:53:45 +0100 <geekosaur> you'd need something in the logHook to track the current window, something in ExtensibleState recording both the current and previous window (current so you know when to update previous), and the keybind uses the previous window from XS
2022-02-14 21:54:02 +0100 <geekosaur> certainly doable, just not something simple you could just drop in
2022-02-14 21:55:01 +0100 <Solid> this seems like an easy extensions of X.H.RefocusLast to me
2022-02-14 21:55:31 +0100jludwig(~justin@user/jludwig) (Quit: ZNC - https://znc.in)
2022-02-14 21:55:40 +0100 <geekosaur> maybe
2022-02-14 21:55:46 +0100 <Solid> the setup is already there, one would just need to use the entire data instead of only the current workspace's history
2022-02-14 21:56:29 +0100jludwig(~justin@user/jludwig)
2022-02-14 21:59:42 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> <geekosaur> "you'd need something in the..." <- XS?
2022-02-14 21:59:54 +0100 <geekosaur> hm, actually toggleFocus from that module may already do it
2022-02-14 21:59:58 +0100 <geekosaur> ExtensibleState
2022-02-14 22:00:04 +0100 <geekosaur> we usually refer to it as XS
2022-02-14 22:00:11 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> So it's definitely possible?
2022-02-14 22:00:29 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> My friend is curious about this feature. He wants to switch from i3
2022-02-14 22:00:42 +0100 <geekosaur> definitely possible, may already be done (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.0/docs/XMonad-Hooks-RefocusLast.html#v:tog…)
2022-02-14 22:01:02 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Thanks!
2022-02-14 22:01:05 +0100 <geekosaur> still requires the logHook, they just already wroteit
2022-02-14 22:01:30 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> That's good to hear
2022-02-14 22:02:49 +0100 <geekosaur> (I missed it because I wasn't expecting it to be a Hook module)

2022-02-14 22:34:59 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> geekosaur: because I feel like xmonad is really good and what others have to offer
2022-02-14 22:36:21 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> and why some people are sticking with i3 or qtile or herbstluftwm or bspwm or so on
2022-02-14 22:36:55 +0100 <liskin> with i3/bspwm it might just be a personal preference for the way layouting works in those
2022-02-14 22:37:07 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> also feel like people are hyping up wayland vs x11
2022-02-14 22:37:29 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> liskin: if it's just layouting, i think xmonad got it all covered
2022-02-14 22:37:29 +0100 <liskin> xmonad can emulate some of those behaviours but there are often subtle issues due to the design of xmonad core
2022-02-14 22:37:35 +0100 <liskin> ^^
2022-02-14 22:38:06 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> liskin: What are the issues?
2022-02-14 22:38:16 +0100 <geekosaur> people are hyping wayland up but I think it still has a way to go before I'd trust week-long sessions to it
2022-02-14 22:38:19 +0100 <liskin> although for people who aren't too neurotic and who don't mind the occassional imperfection, it might just be worth sticking with xmonad anyway :-)
2022-02-14 22:38:29 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> some people use something other than xmobar too, but idk like polybar
2022-02-14 22:38:59 +0100 <c209e6dc-4d76-47> for me, xmonad and xmonad-contrib is out of date on arch repos so i have to use xmonad-git and xmonad-contrib-git
2022-02-14 22:39:27 +0100 <liskin> unknownbeing[m]: can't really show a specific example as I don't use BSP with xmonad
2022-02-14 22:40:19 +0100 <liskin> but I'd expect that trying to combine that with decorations or minimizing or fullscreen/floats can result in some hiccups
2022-02-14 22:41:18 +0100seschwar(~seschwar@user/seschwar)
2022-02-14 22:41:49 +0100 <liskin> and you can't add tabs to BSP, because it's not a generic layout, it can only layout actual windows
2022-02-14 22:42:04 +0100 <liskin> I have absolutely no idea if i3/bspwm can do any of this, though
2022-02-14 22:42:22 +0100 <liskin> but it's something an xmonad user might expect and be disappointed with :-)

2022-02-14 22:52:48 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Isn't Arch meant to be the bleeding edge distro?
2022-02-14 22:53:11 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> How are they letting the xmonad package stay so far out of date?

2022-02-14 22:53:26 +0100 <liskin> it's only as bleeding edge as there are people willing to maintain stuff
2022-02-14 22:53:49 +0100 <geekosaur> quite a few haskell package maintainers have defected to nix, apparently
2022-02-14 22:54:30 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Ugh
2022-02-14 22:54:37 +0100 <geekosaur> and arch has always been problematic when it came to haskell packages anyway, because they made a maintenance decision that is easier on their package maintainers but a headache for package users
2022-02-14 22:54:40 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> That's so annoying
2022-02-14 22:55:04 +0100 <geekosaur> there'snobody maintaining haskell packages for debian any more either
2022-02-14 22:55:13 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Why?
2022-02-14 22:55:21 +0100 <geekosaur> all went over to nix
2022-02-14 22:55:25 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Why is haskell so unloved? :(
2022-02-14 22:56:02 +0100 <geekosaur> it's not that it's unloved, it's that many haskellers prefer nix to manage their packages these days and don't care about distro packages
2022-02-14 22:58:27 +0100 <liskin> compared to python and rust, haskell is unloved indeed, though
2022-02-14 22:59:12 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> :'C
2022-02-14 22:59:29 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> Dunno what to recommend to my friend then. Maybe qtile?

2022-02-14 23:00:51 +0100 <liskin> well you can still recommend xmonad, it's not like it's on its death bed just yet
2022-02-14 23:01:19 +0100 <liskin> there'll always be a way to install ghc on any distro and build xmonad with it
2022-02-14 23:01:31 +0100 <liskin> just not necessarily via a distro package :-/
2022-02-14 23:01:44 +0100 <unknownbeing[m]> I'm wondering if I should just build xmonad from source
