Seriously, is it just me or is software quality getting worse? It is now, buggier and slower. What is going on? 🤔

🚦🚥 ... ok it works 🌋

A super-simple #emoji keyboard for #x11.

Well, I did have to fiddle with the keymap.

And I had to add delays 🤯👹 (otherwise there are races between keymap changes and keyboard events).

And I had to misuse the #Xtest extension, cause applications ignore "synthetic" events. 🫥😣

But hey, it works 🕺

Now needs some basic, uhm, "features" (like recently used, like search by name).

Well, apart from #Sway it seems, there is nothing stable out there for #Wayland in terms of simple window managers.

So, it's easy to say "X11 must die" when you are using KDE or GNOME or i3, because you don't have to adapt to a new environment.

But if you are a long-term user of other window managers the switch isn't so easy.

What are users of #icewm #fluxbox #openbox #bspwm #herbstluftwm #fvwm #jwm and many others are supposed to do?

Xfce 4 and other Linux desktop managers are popular because of their user-friendly interface and efficient performance, especially RAM usage. Which desktop manager do you use on #Linux?
