I was experiencing a significant amount of dropped frames during video playback after switching to Wayland and finally was able to find a fix that worked for me

During youtube playback I would experience 10+ frames dropped all at once, causing a noticable skip.

Saw a few people having similar issues:

Tootski, a sharing bookmarklet for Mastodon

Kent Brewster

Tootski is a bookmarklet that will share the page you're on to your Mastodon instance, including the title, address, and any text you may have selected. If you have any questions or need help, please find me at https://xoxo.zone/@kentbrew.

Before You Begin

You need to know the name of your Mastodon instance if it's not mastodon.social. To find it, visit your home page on Mastodon and copy out the part between the second and third slash. My home URL looks like this:

Recommended Extentions:

uBlock Origin

Settings

Make sure the following options are off:

Disable pre-fetching

Don't you think it is a baby challenge?

Bypass the extension check

 Object.keys(req.files).forEach(function(key){
        var filename = req.files[key].name.toLowerCase();
        var position = filename.lastIndexOf('.');
        if (position == -1) {
          return next();
        }
        var ext = filename.substr(position);

Installing Windows and Linux into the same partition

But WHY?

There was a reddit post about installing Arch on NTFS3 partition. Since Windows and Linux doesn't have directories with same names under the /(C:\), I thought it's possible, and turned out it was actually possible.
If you are not familiar to Linux, for example you've searched on Google "how to dualboot Linux and Windos" or brbrbr... you mustn't try this. This is not practical.

Pre-requirements

UEFI system
Any Linux live-boot CD/DVD/USB... with Linux kernel newer than 5.15
Windows installer USB

Fedora35 hibernation

This guide helps to configure the hibernation on a default Fedora35 (also worked fine in previous Fedora34) installation by using a swap file. The Fedora35 installation comes with btrfs as default filesystem. Also, it comes with a zram swap device:

$ swapon
NAME       TYPE      SIZE USED PRIO
/dev/zram0 partition   8G   0B  100

What's Cool

Encrypted root partition
- AES-256 bit cipher
- Argon2id variant for PBKDF
- Sha3-512 bit hash
rEFInd bootloader
- With dreary theme
- Optimal Settings (optimized for aesthetics, and boot time)
Boot into backups thanks to refind-btrfs

Think twice before abandoning X11. Wayland breaks everything!

tl;dr: Wayland is not "the future", it is merely an incompatible alternative to the established standard with a different set of priorities and goals.

Wayland breaks everything! It is binary incompatible, provides no clear transition path with 1:1 replacements for everything in X11, and is even philosophically incompatible with X11. Hence, if you are interested in existing applications to "just work" without the need for adjustments, then you may be better off avoiding Wayland.

Wayland solves no issues I have but breaks almost everything I need. Even the most basic, most simple things (like xkill) - in this case with no obvious replacement. And usually it stays broken, because the Wayland folks mostly seem to care about Automotive, Gnome, maybe KDE - and alienating e
