Record a Window on Wayland

Hello. Im trying to figure out, how to record a *Window* on wayland and i need your help. I know there is such a thing in X11, but none of screen recorders ive tried on wayland support it. I could just go with full screen recording and edit it later, but i want background be transparent, and dont want to make extra job every time.

Concern about peertube and P2P

Hello! Im Trying out peertube and have some unanswered questions. Iv been having some troubles figuring out how to use that platform. One problem is that it takes much time to find an instance with open registration. But its Ok, not a big problem. So I registered, but what is happening? Where is content from other instances? I cannot simply find my fav channels from other instances just by typing the name. But if you try to search with @channel@instance.name it surprisingly works. Well, may be my channel should be visible from other instances, right? Looks like not either. But its not completely broken, some channels visible from X instance on Z instance, but on the other side Z channels on X instance undiscoverable. Each instance also has different tranding and discover pages, which looks weird to me. In other words, how do we know as content creators, if our channels can be discovered from other instances? And its not just about using Sepia Search (that only works if user knows what they are searching), but also displaying content on different instances in "Tranding", "Discover" and "Recently added" pages. Another concern is about privacy. We all know about P2P, and that when you connect to peers you reveal your IP address. How peertube protects users from ~~stealing~~ leaking their IP addresses? Thank you! :3

    Imagine applying to private university and reading their privacy policy, where they clearly say, how they get your private information from third parties and share all info with third parties. And when you ask administrator, how can i prevent them from doing that, they say, that they do not share/get info from/to thirdparties. Bravo

    Im saying that you should not confuse government and several individuals with people living in this country. But what im seing in comment section for this post so far, called racism.

    Thats not true. You are judging an entire nation by the single guy. You cant say anything that comes from russia is a lie. Becuz it cant be like that. I agree with you about government, and you are right if you think that the large portion of russian population cant see things clear, but for the sake of god, dont say that about everyone.

    You could try system wide macros. If you type @l, macro deletes last 2 chars and types lemmy

    Why I need extra kernel modules to be able to run Wayland on nvidia?

    If i run X.org i dont need to modify my kernel or its configs, it just works well (well, well for X.org) out of box. With wayland its the other story. I need to enable nvidia-dkms module and much other stuff to should be configured. There is a whole page about enabling hyprland on nvidia. https://wiki.hyprland.org/Nvidia/ I ran into troubles trying to set up wayland preperly with nvidia, it has many issues and visual artifacts. I know that the problem somewhere in my kernel set up, but i feels like there would be no problem if hyprland/wayland would not require that granual configuration. I keep thinking about wayland as a fullscreen videogame that just draws windows (in wayland it called somewhat else though, dont remember the term). And this is kinda weird for me that a video game needs special kernel modules. Probabely if in wayland they could not require this extra set ups on nvidia, they would do that. They should have some reasons for not doing that i just want to know why? Thank you :3

    Im not talking about comparing these distros, nor using void on NixOS. Im asking if i had all packages that are preinstalled on void, present on NixOS as well. Would i be able to run some packages from void linux repos on NixOS? If i make nix derivation with package from void repo and install it, would it work?

    Looks like the answer is "Yes", but im not sure.

    NixOS, Alpine and Gentoo are also pretty popular, but yeah, Fedora and Ubuntu it is the distros the regular person is associating linux with. Or doesnt know what is linux at all :)

    Btw i use NixOS

    So basically if i have all Voidlinux's programs installed on NixOS, i can have some decent amount of packages (that are not heavily depending on init systems or some other non trivial stuff) from Void repos running on NixOS?

    What are the differences between linux distributions?

    Hey guys! Trying to understand what developers actually do to create a yet another distro, or what are the differences between existing distros. Lets say we have ubuntu and fedora. What are the differences? Excluding DE, Installer, theme, installed packages/libs and package manager. They both are FHS compliant, both running systemd what else? Just wondering if there could be a way to "simulate", lets say ubuntu on fedora. For example providing every program that should be present on ubuntu in fedora. Would it be enough to be able to run .deb packages on fedora? Im not gonna do that though, just curious about this question. Thank you!

    Not Hitler, not even close. Im not allowing what he did nor defending him, but what Hitler did compared with Putin is major difference. It does not change the fact that both of them deserve a special place in hell

    In Matrix all u need is username, email and password and ur ready to go. Homeserver is configured automatically to matrix.org (which is a problem, but nvm)

    The downside of matrix is complexity of choosing a client though. And in general understanding a concept of matrix is not easy for regilar person.

    For example u can say: "Im on Signal", but u cant say: "im on FluffyChat", or Element whatever, it sounds wrong, cuz these are only the clients and everything is working on matrix. But the regular person needs an object: telegram, signal, whatsapp - these all are just single entities. On the other hand u have matrix with clients, homeservers, spaces and all of this complexity, and that is not easy to understand.

    Yeah, i hope in future this problem will be resolved.

    Why everybody is talking about signal? Isnt a matrix also a good alternative? It requires no phone number + has almost the same feature set. For chatting with family and friend it scales enough good. It is fully open source.
