yyp: Hah, nice. I had that exact same crash exactly once when testing swap but could never reproduce it. well done.
<ifreund>
I never use swap :D

Until river-control-v2 arrives and I can write a helper to automatically sort my windows, I have to do it manually :P
<ifreund>
I just treat my stack like a MRU cache of sorts
<ifreund>
whatever I'm focusing gets popped to the top
<leon-p>
kakoune made me a bit more unorganized: I now just spawn a new window when I need to get on a detour, and when I close it the old layout snaps nicely back into place. But I used to work with three windows: editor in the main area on the left, documentation or editor with notes at the top 60% of the stack and compiler / shell at the bottom 40% of the stack.
<ifreund>
I feel like not needing to care about organization is the strength of dynamic tiling
<ifreund>
I just spawn new windows whenever I feel like it and the window manager organizes them for me
<leon-p>
for me the strength is that everything is predicatble. On sway if I have my windows set up and then open a new one and close it again, who knows how the layout will look like. On river it'll be exactly like it was before.
<ifreund>
yeah that's another great feature
<leon-p>
s/predicatble/predictable/g
<leon-p>
as I said, with kakoune I now spawn a new window for every detour. it's really great, because as soon as I close it, I am not just back to the previous layout, but also to the exact same buffer and exact same cursor position. Reduces the things I have to keep in mind at once.
<ifreund>
yeah, kakoune's client/server architecture is pretty great
<ifreund>
it integrates way better with the host environment than say vim, which relies on its own crappy built in wm instead
<leon-p>
absolutely. I was actually about to switch to emacs just so I could have separate windows :D

What are the types I can use for river-option?
<leon-p>
int, uint, double, string
<leon-p>
although double is called fixed, afaik
<ifreund>
indeed, it's not a double :D
<leon-p>
although it acts as one through riverctl
<ifreund>
did I forget to put this in the man page?
<ifreund>
yup, looks like it
<ifreund>
yeah riverctl parses it as a double but it lossily converted to 24.8 signed fixed point number before being sent to the server

Looks like mako is behaving weirdly on river. Sometimes after clearing notifications, mako won't come up anymore. This is probably a bug on river end as `WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 mako` doesn't show any issues

Confirmed, on sway that doesn't happen

yyp: if you want to make sure I don't forget about it, please open an issue with details
snakedye has quit [Quit: Ping timeout (120 seconds)]
<yyp>
I don't have any details, it just disappears sometimes and I have no idea why
snakedye has joined #river
<ifreund>
disappears == notify-send doesn't cause anything to show up?
<snakedye>
ifreund leon-p thanks!
<snakedye>
yyp I experience the same issue
<yyp>
yes
<snakedye>
I need to reload it often because it stops showing up
<yyp>
fun fact: I have menu for my password manager which causes mako to break but emoji selector doesn't. They are ultra simmilar
