Yup, that's true!

Does Wayland have any equivalent of X11 forwarding yet?
playing around with regolith ..
You mean this?
i3-gaps - it's like the official wm of r/unixporn now, isn't it?
I bet 90% of users with laptops or small monitors disable the gaps plugin after they've posted their scrots.

@glittersloth, it's configurable (the gap) and also dynamic, that is patched to certain hotkeys (at least in regolith, I assume the same is true with upstream (i3 gaps)).
Not that I care that much about tilers, just saying.

Yeah that’s the one. I3 has become really popular since the gaps fork appeared. I think it’s kind of like scrotwm on steroids. I like the gaps but I’m also getting older and only use 15 inch laptops and external monitors now.

Not yet that I am aware of. Having the equivalent of X forwarding in Wayland is a must and hopefully a solid mechanism for that gets implemented in Wayland (if not already).

X11 forwarding was a pretty low bar to begin with (because it runs like ass). If we can't even clear that hurdle, then I suppose there's no hope for my iPad-to-NUC latency-free remote desktop dream life in the next few years.

i3-gaps is definitely the scrot of choice at unixporn, but I see a lot of Plasma as well. I think a backlash has started though, I'm starting to see a lot of xfce4 scrots.
We have to update the Helium ISOs, this was after ten minutes with the new test disc...
Helium was pretty good, Lithium will be much better, if all goes the way it's going so far.

only thunar is ugly for some reason). p.s. Geany got ugly as well.
I dunno about geany but that’s the new GTK3 ported version of thunar

Why you no sidecar? I just had to say it. That whole branding for an external display (which is a great idea minus having to buy the latest Adobe CS subscription). cracks me up. Brings to mind an Akira biker gang with crooked smiles and tire irons.

We're behind again, but not like we were with helium/stretch. We have the disadvantage of Buster coming out exactly when predicted, while we're all very busy and yet at the same time trying to implement a bunch of new features. We'll end up compromising, some new features will have to be future upgrades instead of included OOTB. I'll start pressing for a test ISO of some sort next week.

Considering how much new stuff we're trying to include in this release, we're doing damn well time-wise!
-edit-
New root-menu (jgmenu) that has type-to-search as well as auto-update of apps with desktop files, while also providing the option to use the OB menu instead
New yad-based (no python!) exit script
BunsenLabs Openbox now has it's own session while keeping Debian's Openbox session separate
xdg-autostart entries to provide greater WM independence/options
Keeping what has become a fairly bloated release by Debian trimmed
The usual visual refresh (themes, icons and configs)
I'm sure I've missed a few.

Lots and lots of nit-picky fixes and tweaks
Some package substitutions and utility additions
More variety in tint2 and conky configs
More desktop appearance options in BLOB config manager (nothing to do with unfree firmware)
Welcome script that runs apt commands last, after asking the questions
Not all these will get into the first test iso, but as much as possible in the official release.
