I'm completely new to zram. I want to use zram on void. But only a few resources on how to do that. Only found posts recommend Zramen. So how is it going with Zramen? Is it still great for setting up zram? Anything I should care about?
I quite like Wayland's innovations and enjoy my Niri very much; clipboard persistence is a known problem: if you do Ctrl+C, close the source window, Ctrl+V -- it will paste nothing, because the clipboard is bound to the window. That's a known limitation of the protocol, and I expected that I would need to do some tweaking to make it work, but I actually can not do it at all.
The solutions I encountered are:
-
wl-clip-persist -- very buggy, at least with Niri. It breaks gedit selection (which is the best GUI text editor I know), firefox is able to copy only 50% of the time
-
Doing a custom solution on top of a complex clipboard manager like CopyQ. That looks like a terrible overkill that would bring a lot of painful debugging
-
A lot of suggestions like "do something else" -- install a thing that would have its own separate keyboard, keep history and paste through a picker; switch to KDE/gnome; my favorite is "persistent clipboard is against wayland philosophy => you should not want it", which is just disgusting
The problem seems quite simple: make clipboard act normally. There are a lot of people using wayland, everybody uses clipboard, somebody should know a normal solution, right?
