Plank Reloaded is a Desktop Dock App for Cinnamon

At one time, Linux dock apps were a plentiful species, with innovative ‘panel painters’ like GNOME Do/Docky to unashamed bling-kings AWN, DockBarX and Cairo Dock. Yet it was the modest Plank which stayed the course and outlived them. Thing is, the Plank dock hasn’t seen any major development for years, and though it still (just about) works, there’s scope for improvement, right? One developer doesn’t just think so: they’ve decided to do something about it. Plank Reloaded: Plank Fork Plank Reloaded is a new fork of the original Plank Linux dock, albeit with a twist: it’s focused on improving compatibility :sys_more_orange:

@volkskrant Ik zal dat even voor jullie fixen:

ALT TEXT:

#Foto van een dichtgetimmerd gebouw met een houten plaat waarop de volgende #tekst staat: #Multiplex: houten #plank bestaande uit op elkaar gekleefde #laagjes waarvan de #houtnerf telkens haaks op die van de volgende laag staat.

Maar het zou jullie sieren als jullie alle #foto’s van zo’n #alttext zouden voorzien. Dan helpen jullie de plaatjes beter #begrijpen voor #slechtzienden.

I did some different dock testing on the #MangoPiQuad. I am running #Debian 12 with Openbox. So far my base RAM usage with #CairoDock is around 30 to 32% with a basic dock and system monitoring widget.

I tried #Plank for a hot minute. Plank doesn’t have widgets like Cairo, so I lost the system monitoring function. I paired Plank with #Conky and was averaging 40 to 44% RAM use.

I looked into #Wbar but that will be for another day. I too tired to do text configurations.

End-of month #Fitness update:
256 KM of #running
131 KM of #Walking
3,247 seconds of #plank (average 147)
535 #Pushups (Average 67)
68 minutes of #Kettlebells (Average 8.5)
49% #TeamShorts

I expect these numbers to fall dramatically in February; I’ll be off on a special project three days a week, plus a week (we’re shooting a movie- Shhh!).

I haven't figured out how to track the #AppleFitness stuff yet; per exercise feels like it will add a lot of columns. Maybe number of exercises/time?
