And here it is! Welcome back as my screensaver, Asciiquarium 😊
I could have reimplemented it in Qt, as it was done back in the KDE 3/4 days... or I could just run the original thing in a Konsole window and call it a day 😁
#plasma #kde #wayland #qtwayland #qml #qtquick #gnu #linux #screensaver #asciiquarium
How it works? It's a Plasma wallpaper plugin which is an extremely simple QtWayland compositor that only handles a single fullscreen window and draws it - so any Wayland window can be drawn as a background. This window can of course also belong to Xwayland 😄
This means we can go beyond xscreensaver. How about... Wine? 😁
#plasma #kde #xscreensaver #wayland #x11 #qtwayland #qml #qtquick #gnu #linux #wine
I had a random thought - "what would it take to support arbitrary old screensavers in Plasma 6 again?" 🤔 So here's xscreensaver safely rendered as a background for Plasma screen locker, working on both Wayland and X11 sessions. Turned out so much simpler than I expected 😁 Just some 70 lines of pure QML and a tiny glue to launch the process.

I would say I'm a Wayland developer. I've had some hand in libwayland and the foundational protocols in the past years, and I still have a hand in some protocols today.
That is why, when someone publicly vents that Wayland makes the touchpad feel wrong, or Wayland breaks the picture on the TV, or Wayland uses wrong fonts, it feels like they are blaming me personally.
I understand how it is easy to come to the conclusion that Wayland is to blame. Despite reasoning otherwise, it still hurts.

Last weekend, we reached another milestone in our efforts to have all Debian packages versioned in Salsa (Debian's GitLab instance). Out of around 39000 packages, less than 2000 are not in Salsa! Check https://trends.debian.net/#vcs-hosting for some cool graphs #debian #salsa #09
