- edit /etc/default/grub, set grub_timeout to 0. Run update-grub so the change sticks.
This removes the ticking 5s timer at bootup. I never use the other boot entries anyway, and if the system fails to boot, I troubleshoot from a live system.
- Create ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and add:
[Settings]
gtk-primary-button-warps-slider = false
This makes it so when you click on a scrollbar below or above the slider, it moves down or up by one page, not to where you clicked.
- edit /etc/environment (it’s empty), add a line with: MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
This forces firefox to use Wayland, which makes scrolling much smoother and text look better.
There’s a bunch more, but these are the first I always do so I don’t get mad. What are yours?
I can imagine it being useful as a page down key but without having to press the page down key on your keyboard? I prefer the gnome implementation as well but above all else I prefer people having the choice.
What I never understood about the “windows” implementation is if the page cut a line in half and you go down one page the line is still cut in half on the top of the page meaning you have to scroll around anyway.
