Nice and clean desktop. None of that over the top ricing that takes forever to replicate

hey everyone - made a start page extension/site thats focused on latest media and content. its available as an extension on https://marketing.startyparty.dev - it always fetches the latest news, lemmy, mastodon (journalists), music, videos, podcasts, twitch, steam launcher/news, browser game (play games in the browser), links, search, etc. has a bunch of keybound shortcuts for keyboard warriors too. hope some of y'all find it useful / enjoy ^^

My dotfiles are a bit of a mess 😵‍💫 but I'll upload them at some point if requested.

Using a less aggressive approach to rounding the corners on the desktop elements this time. Overall theme is Material-Black-Cherry but I color sampled the tree she's reclining on for the desktop elements. Gruvbox-Material-Black for the icon set.

Gentoo with a custom kernel made using the fantastic guidance from the wiki.

I replaced the tux boot logo with an IBM one, I used this guide to do that: https://linuxlink.timesys.com/docs/wiki/engineering/HOWTO_Use_a_custom_boot_logo (is not that hard)

Things that don't work yet:

• Webcam microphone

Conclusion about Gentoo: Waiting for packages to compile is annoying. But the flexibility and the Gentoo wiki makes up for it. Also Gentoo now has binary packages so I don't have to wait for packages that I don't care about to compile.

Wanted to see if I could make it look a little more "modern".

• DE: Cosmic Epoch
• Widgets: Aylur's GTK Shell (ags)
• OS: NixOS 24.05

i'll keep it simple this time: (it is 1:22 AM and i want to sleep)

• stuff
  • distro \\ ultramarine
  • color scheme \\ miasma (i'm reusing colorschemes, i know!)

• Colour Scheme: Catppuccin Mocha
• Wallpaper: VDawg's submission to the Hyprland wallpaper contest
• Dotfiles: Unavailable. I haven't migrated some configs to nix yet (most notably hyprland) and I don't manage them with git either. ~~also they're a mess.~~

Feel free to ask me how I did things, information is difficult to find sometimes, so I'm happy to help

• OS: openSUSE Tumbleweed

Also, Albafetch does not yet feature the openSUSE logo. I am in the process of trying to implement this, which is how I have it on my system.

My current Linux setup. I'm still waiting for Cosmic. I'm hyped. BSPWM is really comfy to use. It is the best starter tiling wm to me. Wallpaper.

• Sway Notification Center - despite the name, it works on most wayland compositors.
• My previous post with my Niri rice
• My dotfiles

It's very much WIP.

• Distro: EndeavourOS

• Compositor/WM: Niri

• Floating menu in the center: Fuzzel

• Bar: Waybar

• Terminal: Foot

• Terminal multiplexer: Tmux

• Shell: ZSH

• Prompt: Powerlevel10k

• Editor: Neovim

• Browser: Firefox

• dotfiles (kinda messy + outdated README)

One of my all-time favorite wallpaper finds (LINK: https://wallhaven.cc/w/g8xlxd). The Waybar and Hyprland window borders are color sampled directly from the wallpaper itself. The other color/icon/cursor/terminal themes are listed in the fastfetch output.

This is my first time trying both hyprland and wayland. My friends have been bugging me for quite some time about switching to wayland but I'm just to comfortable with my dwm setup. So far I really like hyprland though and I might actually keep using it

1. WM?
   • hyprland \\ i'm just staying for the blur at this point
2. distro?
   • ultramarine \\ aka the cooler fedora*(tm)*
3. browser?
   • librewolf \\ with the FF Ultima css, too!
4. wallpaper?
   • this \\ BTW, this whole thing is inspired by N0tch2k's 'The Sawfish' post in devianart!
5. wtf do you have open in the other librewolf window???
   • 4get.ca \\ proxy search engine that respects your privacy! BTW, will is very cool and i respect him a lot
6. colorscheme?
   • N0tch2k \\ finding the origin of this is pretty messy, the most i got was a devianart profile and the original repo containing the colorscheme

NOTE: i rewrote the photon, firefox, discord and 4get themes i made for biscuit just for this lol

Just plain old XFCE with "off the rack" configuration. Just like how this background looks with the Kripton-GTK theme and Gruvbox-Plus-Dark Icons.
