Hey guys, I’m just an ordinary dev looking for something to work on. While messing around with my hobby projects, I couldn’t help but notice that under the surface, there are a lot of places that the libre desktop can be improved. I’d like to take on your suggestions on what I should seriously consider working on and helping out with.

Thanks for any comments and suggestions.

(For those wondering, I’m still working on my other stuff.)

    Hardware support, in particular:

    • Better support for dual monitor setups (at first this was niche, but the ubiquity of laptops has changed this)
    • Improved graphics cards support (curse you, nVidia)
    • Better ARM and RISC-V support

      The Arm support is there, its just not upstreamed because companies don’t like sharing

      ARM and RISC-V not hardware that is auto-discoverable. It’s the hardware not the software that is the problem.

      So I legit rub in to no issues on my 3 monitor setup on Linux what issues do you run into out of curiosity.

        The latest updates (a few days ago) made my distro crash on the SDDM login screen (I’m using a KVM switch, I can confirm this is a KVM switch issue). I could work around it by doing autologin, but it’s disheartening that I had to do it.
