laggy after installing Hyprland

[old vault]

everything feel like its 24fps (even the mouse) although i selected 144hz and the resources are normal (and below 50%), idk why it cause this lag

i could record a video to show if needed

[wanton pasture]

@old vault pacman -S nwg-displays

open it

[old vault]

ok

[old vault]

installed

how do i open? its not an app in my search menu

oh nvm

what next

[wanton pasture]

@old vault record a video

[old vault]

do i need a 3rd party app

[wanton pasture]

why did you open it in the terminal?

who's dots are these?

[old vault]

i thought i was required to open it in the terminal

😭

[wanton pasture]

no

[trail crystal]

Isn’t this uh

HyDE

[old vault]

Yes

It is

Here is the video

[wanton pasture]

using someones dots is begging for disaster, meaning that you don't know how to use it, then you come to the support forms asking for help on something we know nothing about

[old vault]

So i should use other hyprland?

[wanton pasture]

make your own dots

[old vault]

Im just a beginner

How can i 😭

[trail crystal]

I use someone else’s dots and I don’t have issues-

[wanton pasture]

@trail crystal

we are going to make are own hyprland dots from scratch

[trail crystal]

[wanton pasture]

first mv ~./config/hyprland ~/.config/hyprland.bak

now what terminal do you want

you can keep the one you have now

[old vault]

Ok

[wanton pasture]

@trail crystal same for you?

[trail crystal]

Wdym?

[old vault]

uhh

[trail crystal]

Honestly for me I just used preconfigured cause I had 0 clue how to make my own look good + Im too busy sometimes + I have 0 creativity

[old vault]

dude just said what i thought

[wanton pasture]

@trail crystal @old vault cd .config

ls

[trail crystal]

I mean I have no issue

I’m just here to listen

My bad
