others like to say "a reboot will fix things usually" so yeah, one ./unfuck-waybar.sh later and it's back in order :3

@awoo
hmm

did you update packages?

looks like something messed with fonts or the font cache was regenerated

@tthbaltazar well I uninstalled all-repository-fonts but reinstalled all the fonts I still needed afterwards (thing is, 12 GB of fonts is too much for GNU IMP 3.x ​) perhaps this was part of the issue lol

@awoo Reminds me of my fix-pan script from back when I had the ancient Nvidia card, which did this for each monitor with a 1s sleep in between [and this script had to be run between one and four times to fix the issue]:

xrandr --output "$output"  --panning 0x0

@42triangles thing is, all those programs that like to occasionally misbehave (or those I tinker with quite often) just need their care package in the form of:

killall [program name]
[program name] [all their arguments as configured in the ~/.config/niri/config.kdl]

and here's an example with swaybg should I decide to change the wallpaper:

killall swaybg
screen swaybg -i ~/Pictures/background.jpg -m fill

@awoo NGL the [all their arguments as configured in the ~/.config/niri/config.kdl] scares me, seems like an easy way for configurations to go out of sync... (Would be for me anyways)

@42triangles to be fair none of the programs need their arguments necessarily, if possible I just configure it via their respective config files

but swaybg is the exception here lol
