I am still working on a Linux dockbar for X11 and Wayland, it has all the goods of dockbars I have been using throughout the decades now, 60+ applets baked in, fairly good customization, etc * https://docking.cc/ * https://github.com/edumucelli/docking

Beautiful, would it work on Linux? Btw, the website is really heavy for my connection.

Too much "vibe" in the code.

We distilled all the proprietary material into our token-based money making machine that is more expensive on every new release, but "we should crack down on industrial-scale distillation operations".

Anecdata: my workflow has been working on the same personal projects for months now with Codex. I cannot anymore finish my daily/weekly code with 4.8 anymore.

I was dividing my work between Codex and DeepSeek. Now I barely use DeepSeek, or never because Codex quota is enough after Sol

I hit Codex limits (20x account, never using /fast) on Sol Medium in about 2.5 days

I've had the same experience but at the same time I also find Sol's answers in conversation longer.

Which plan?

Also the fact that now you can keep unused resets and use them later is a big advantage: "You have 4 usage limit resets available".

Careful with those, they expire.

I just had one randomly delete the other day.

No, they don't apply it :/

OMG, yes, please, get rid of all those composers, all that mess that people are doing. X11 is 40 years of battle testing. Wayland in 22 years (it already has 18) will be 100x worse than X11.

A Dockbar I am working on https://github.com/edumucelli/docking/ is a pain to build on Wayland. It already supports a lot of composers and even mutter/gnome with that Gnome shell extension, but at what cost ...

You can always use XWayland if you feel that way.

inigyou · 2026-07-17T23:19:40

Wayland is designed not to support all that stuff. If you're going to reimplement X in Wayland you might as well just use X.

I have been working on dock bar for Linux

* https://docking.cc

* https://github.com/edumucelli/docking

It has X11 and Wayland support, pre-built packages for all major distributions, almost 60 baked in applets.

For those into Linux and using a dock bar, I am sure you will like it.

Not sure about the consensus, but during an entire week I have done every task on my workplace with both Opus 4.8 and GPT 5.5. GPT won hands down. I would even sometimes copy the plans and solutions (using different Git worktrees) from GPT and paste it on Opus and itself would say GPT plans were better. At that point I have migrated. Fable is not enabled in our workspace so I have not tried.

Claude lost my trust around February this year when the plan would say nonsensical things as "delete this method" that was clearly a key method on that part of the codebase.

For personal projects I am using Codex 20$ plan and when that is over I use DeepSeek which is insanely good for the cost.

A Linux dockbar with tons of applets and support for x11 and Wayland. Works on Gnome and KDE. I always wanted to write one as I have been involved with several open source ones, but it is a lot of time to go from scratch. I use it everyday, and I am enjoying it so much!
