You're on 5, upgrade to 6 (if possible)!

I filled out a form wrong so now I just don't have health insurance until I can re-enroll in the fall. Hope I don't get sick until then! Also my car's airbag just malfunctioned, I'm driving very carefully lol.

Allah works in mysterious ways.

If startx and everything else works fine, my guess is that sddm or whatever login manager you're using is messed up. Maybe reinstall/reset its configuration files and go from there.

The spacing looks fine here, I copied and pasted it into Kate and it worked fine, maybe you're on a phone or something. Here's a link to my latest version:

DevilsPie is the name of the software I couldn't remember.

I did a workaround by editing a script I found and don't understand using xprop, xwininfo, and xdotool. I probably should have mentioned that I'm using X, most of this stuff doesn't work on Wayland. Here's my script so far:

#!/bin/bash

xprop -spy -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW | grep --line-buffered -o '0[xX][a-zA-Z0-9]\{7\}' |
while read -r id; do
    class="`xprop -id $id WM_CLASS 2> /dev/null | grep TeamViewer`"
    if [ -n "$class" ]; then
        if xprop -id "$id" | grep -q 'WM_NAME(STRING) = "TeamViewer Authentication"'; then
            echo "key Tab
            key space
            key shift+Tab
            key shift+Tab
            key Down
            key Tab
            type {my.username}
            key Tab
            key ctrl+u"| xdotool -
            # wait for the window to be closed
            xprop -spy -id $id > /dev/null 2>&1
            fi
    fi
done

It spits out errors after the window closes because I think it's trying to get windows properties from the now closed window, but it gets the job done!

Edit: changed the script to be much smaller and not show errors.

 

KDE 5 had a feature in the keyboard shortcuts in settings where you could set a Window Action as a trigger instead of a keyboard shortcut (Documentation in the link). This means that KDE would do something every time a certain window appeared. This was very useful, my use case was changing the TeamViewer authorization prompt to NT logon as I don't use the normal TeamViewer password. I think there should be a workaround if it's truly gone, but for the life of me I can't remember or search for the name of this software that does something every time a certain window is created.

That was the thing that drew me toward KDE, super configurable. It seems like gnome tries to hide advanced stuff for users or just not offer it. That and it's beautiful and full-featured.

Nah it's pretty good. Just a little rough at first as you whitelist the websites you go to. After that they all load quicker since you're blocking a bunch of tracking and advertising sites.
