Love to do this so brought it to GNOME i just love to wiggle mouse in my free time when i am on my Manjaro kde VM. It just feels so good but them my GNOME based fedora 44 didnt have it because jiggle and wiggle are outdated…and weell wiggly…it just doent work with the similar physics of KDE with incremental size increase. So , to give myself a break from my work I VibeCoded this. Yes i openly am stating that this is a VIBECODED project and welll i made it for myself and am sharing it here. It was a break from my sullen work and also from testing and debuuging my main project which i have to do manually , ScreenGuard , which well some people here must know atleast by now after my vigourous campaign about what this is…but nevertheless getting into this topic, I can atleast assusre u one thing, I will continue updating it atleast once every month if i find any bugs or any issues are opened in the repo. So please feel free to use it, or even contribute. I will be adding the contibuting.md after a few hours, its been a looong day. Thank you all for co-operating and Please donot tag it as AI slop because yes i myself am stating its vibecoded a lot eventhough i ask people not to do it…So if you really want the kde-ish wiggle, u can try it out, if you dont feel good about the vibecode then dont , completely upto you . The github repository: github.com/…/adaptive-wiggle-cursor details on how to install is given in README.

A small update on ScreenGuard, Finally reached 50+ downloads 🎉 a small update to this digital wellbeing software since my last post. This is a prerelease version which i have tagged to be stable and slated for future release and add to main branch from the beta branch. This highlight is less about asking you guys to try out the beta release but more in the honor of over 3+ months of development. What makes me happy the most is that the project which i started even without a repository just to monitor my own system and usage has now come this far with over 50+ downloads 🎉☺️ This beta release now polishes on various little things which are actually necessary for a first time set up and proper user control as Now you can: carries forward the settings screen from previous beta release replaces notifications and sounds tab with general which now includes appearance settings you can now Stop , restart or RESET the Daemon and its preferences in settings Pomodoro settings which were half baked in the first release have now been added to settings to enable a looping focus mode for people at work with CUSTOM BREAK TIME Most Importantly (i feel) FIRST time setup issues have been fixed and in an attempt the first time ScreenGuard daemon setup pop up dialog (1st image) has been made The Release v0.1.1 releases this October by second week, and I will continue testing the beta version to look for sectors that need polishing if any. This is still limited to GNOME on wayland and x11 for other environments systems and primarily developed by me on my fedora 44 system and the project ScreenGuard still has a very Long way to go; But working on it alone has given me much exposure to project sharing on platforms and most importantly a lot of invaluable experience and the true zeal of development instead of the boredom of being a 9 to 5 dev at a corporate who don’t care for you. Github beta release link: https://github.com/adityakrishnan005-a11y/ScreenGuard/releases/tag/v0.1.1-beta.4 The code for this is visible on the beta branch to keep the main working tree clean for new features additions. Feedback from other desktop environments is widely appreciated, u can try the application out by switching to x11 session temporarily if you are using any DE which is not GNOME wayland or if u are on a DE which is primarily x11 based (Cinnamon, i3, etc) then u are good to go as they ARE FULLY SUPPORTED. thank you everyone for your supports, criticisms and feedbacks ever since the project came online on github.

Need help from users to volunteer testing of his digital wellbeing software

A few days ago i made a post on various platforms sharing my software ScreenGuard which received mixed reviews every where , since I AM using it for myself i decided to take in the reviews and am working towards adding necessary features and primarily polishing up things that were left behind and can have some 1st time setup hiccups.

The new features-

• Settings menu added

General tab(control notifications and sounds)

• add notification sounds(custom options too)

-toggle sounds and notifications for various causes

• dark mode(asked bby a few people so added the option)

Tracker Daemon tab

-stop background daemon

• toggle autostart of daemon on boot

• warning when daemon is off Pomodoro timer tab

• Turn on pomodoro in focus mode settings (fixes the unbaked settings of focus mode in v0.1.0 -set break between pomodoros

• no of pomodoro loops

• Daily limits can now be set instead of the fixed 8hr daily limit bug with v0.1.0

• Several changes to Daemon, including some minute layout changes to optimise resources while adding the newer features which are Stated above

Note: this is a beta release and will NOT be pushed to the APT ,COPR AND ARCH repositories for casual users, this is meant for testers and people eager to help me out find the bugs and tiny issues here and there AND YOU CAN HAVE A LOOK INTO THE CODE IN THE BETA BRANCH OF THE REPOSITORY, it hasn’t been pushed to main branch to keep it clear until bugs are fixed.

Release page: (github.com/…/v0.1.1-beta.4)

It isn’t vibe coded friend I have worked on it personally and can assure you it’s not vibe coded…just fixed certain anonymous bugs with llm when I got tired… There has been a backlash I know but it’s just what it is…thank you

I did try out activity watch myself but that didn’t have digital wellbeing control like daily timer and focus mode sooo…yeah

Sure will make that clear in … probably after a few commits because I need to recall…but hey I think I did make agents (debugging) file which shows the bugs patches with llm

Yes it is GNOME…and…well it’s quite simple extensions

Please feel free to contribute as this project needs several more improvements and doing it alone is a long tedious process…so if you feel that it’s worth it do contribute as I don’t want to contaminate the code base by using llm for code base and adding any code…it’s the philosophy of this project: AI for basic debugging or assistance only

Let’s be real , this is apple that we are speaking about… The won’t add a fckin fingerprint scanner on you phone along side the face time, will shove through your throats the bugged Vibecoded slop of an os that ios liquid glass is with an eternity of bugs and also the Latest Mac OS Golden Gate, WIL NOT allow you to side load apps or even install one unless they are pain, Will take a fortune of your wallets to even give u a developer certification for the IOS softwares and MOST funny thing of ALL , WILL skip any major updates on hardware let alone their sloppy software after an entire goddarm years wait instead wasting time and revenue over some trivial sht as this patent. The entire idea of this closed source nature needs to be overcome, don’t think I am some android fan guy as i criticize their latest acts as well , they are following apple as well in their footsteps… At this point…the only thing which I loved the most important thing of Apple, ecosystem integration along with fine tuned software seems to be vanishing…WHY would someone even consider them now? Reason: no one else comes close to them yet … despite all these factors nothing comes close to them…MacOS bs linux isn’t a question yet … because sadly again arm systems of Linux are vastly in development…and their is no perfect widescale foss alternative to ios yet… But one day we will outgrow them …WE WILL

If KDE users support it then we’ll sure …why not …it either ways is in development…I am planning to add something like do not disturb and other android like features too…so …yes…btw if using x11 in kde isn’t an issue…then u can use it in kdetoo(although I think that would be like switching so yeah nvm) TLDR: Working on it pal…will try to add atleast kde and cinnamon support by end of this yeah…and sway , hyprland etc too but will take till next year I guess…let’s see
