in ♥️ with linux

We had a great pleasure to meet Ivan, the main developer of Niri. Niri is a tilling window manager for Wayland, where the user interface is not new, but Ivan is constantly expanding the concept with great interesting possibilities and functions. With the effect that the fan community is getting bigger and bigger.

In the interview together with our guest Christian, we were able to ask few questions to emphasize the aspect of what it means to be an independent open source software developer in addition to the technology discussions.

The first idea was that this interview should be part of our next regular episode. But Christoph also had the idea of separating it to reach English-speaking listeners as well, rather than just our German listeners. And this is the reason for this special.

We recorded our interview outside on the terrace in beautiful weather. However, a bad weather front kept us very busy until the end. The effect was that we were accompanied by twittering of birds and strong rain and wind noises. But that didn't affect the interview in any way. Gordon would say we had atmosphere 😀.

So be part of what we think is an interesting interview and have fun to listening.

It was an exciting interview for me as a Niri user. You can find the interview at Trommelspeicher or on the Triumvirat podcast in all podcast directories.
