  • Thank you, I should have tried that. (I tried /feed - without the .xml). I’m also pretty sure there’s some html meta tag pointing at the feed. I use Feeder on android and it can usually find the feed, even if it has some nonstandard path. EDIT: This is how it looks like in the linked The Thin Computer article linked:

    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="The Thin Computer &raquo; Feed" href="https://thin.computer/index.php/feed/" />
    
    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="The Thin Computer &raquo; Comments Feed" href="https://thin.computer/index.php/comments/feed/" />
    
    <link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="The Thin Computer &raquo; Using Termux on Android for Self Hosting? Yes, really. Comments Feed" href="https://thin.computer/index.php/2024/03/21/using-termux-on-android-for-self-hosting-yes-really/feed/" />
    















  • The only difference I can see is that you might have for example four windows 1, 2, 3, 4, all taking half of the screen. On a compositor like Niri, you can scroll so that you can see windows 1 and 2, or 2 and 3, or 3 and 4. On vertically scrolling one, you can see 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 if I understand it correctly. This is much more noticeable if you work with many smaller windows, just like on the screenshots from the article and repo’s readme. I usually use only one or two windows per virtual desktop, so what you suggest would be more practical for me. But I use only notebook, and I can imagine using Niri on some hi-res ultrawide monitor.


  • That’s something different. This compositor’s concept is that you have line of windows that you scroll through, as you can see on the screenshots. You always see part of the line, and the part you see usually contains multiple windows. If the line is vertical as you suggests, you wouldn’t usually be able to fit multiple windows on the monitor, because normal monitor is horizontal and apps are much better resizable horizontally. If you want to view two webpages at once on horizontal monitor, do you tile them vertically or horizontally?
