  • Atlantis KD3116 keyboard

    Atlantis KD3116 keyboard

    Looking for a compact keyboard with an integrated touchpad, I found the Atlantis KD3616 keyboard.

    It is an Italian brand, and I’m not sure if this keyboard is available outside Italy.

    What sold it to me, was the promise of three finger gestures on the touchpad, which I use a lot in Gnome, to switch between desktops and open and close the overview.

    It does, kind of, but it also doesn’t.

  • Nextcloud markdown editor ­— CLI

    I use the rich text editor in Nextcloud a lot, and it can be opened through a sub-menu of the context menu in the GNOME file manager.

    You can only open one file at a time, and requires a few clicks and moving the mouse around.

  • Paste with two-finger tap in Wayland [solved]

    When I moved to Wayland from Xorg — initially just to try it out — the only grievance I had was that on a laptop with a touchpad, a two-finger tap would act as a right-click and bring up the context many.

    I have been used to that doing a middle-click — pasting the clipboard — since I started using Unix workstations sometimes in the mid-1980s.

    There didn’t seem to be an easy way to remap the mouse buttons, as you could easily in Xorg.
