Ok, someone has to be first.
Same people evert thread, same boring rice every thread, just default shit as boring as default Windows.How does this Discord-tier circlejerk not get remove for off-topic? Is this website really this dead atp that they take any traffic possible
>>108256697This is hobbyist forum, not pinterest. We enjoy desktop ricing here. If you don't like our thread, just hide it and ignore. Thanks
>>108256661glad it is you, you're one of the people i like here>>108256697i'm just filling in, don't have a proper rice at the moment, will an old rice of mine (picrel) suffice in this trying time?
Nothing changed except Audacious skin>>108256661>>108256755nice>>108256697Sharing desktops is a tradition but sure defaults are kinda cringe. People should make their OS soulful.
im surprised you guys use debian despite it being infiltrated by man hating feminists and the creator killed himself
The recent XFCE move to create a Wayland compositor has finally broken me as a long-time XFCE believer. I often fooled around with other desktop environments when distro-hopping, but I always came back.I've decided to get started on moving to awesomewm. I really wanted to use something like stumpwm, exwm, or mahogany, but since I've never gotten good at a window manager before, I'm going to start with a popular option. At least fennel provides a lisp language for writing Lua code, so I'll be able to enjoy it.For two reasons, though, I'm looking at desktop environments too. First, I've heard some people complain about running games in awesome. Based on those complaints, it looked like it can be fixed with a config setting, but I still want a backup. Reason two is that I want to be able to hand the machine off to a tech-illiterate without giving them an instant panic attack about all the widgets and hotkeys on my machine. It sure feels like every desktop environment committed to a suicide pact with the way they're all self-destructing right now. Gnome got so hard coupled to systemd that Artix and Devuan can't run it, KDE put hard systemd coupling in the login manager, XFCE came out of hibernation to build a Rust compositor for Wayland, Budgie dropped X support, and Unity's head dev is going off to college or something.Cinnamon is getting a Wayland compositor too, but I don't hate Wayland by itself; I only hate that X is getting dropped for Wayland. My main aggravation with XFCE is that they came out of retirement for Wayland, which makes me suspicious of their long-term plans. Mate seems like it should stay where it is for the near future. I'm unironically considering Pantheon because it has both X and Wayland, and it's familiar to any Mac/iOS friend that I shove it over to.I honestly just feel sad. I feel like I'm watching a walled garden being built live in front of me.

>>108256697this isnt reddit chumb. /desktop/ is just for comfy desktop posting, not some dick measuring contest for novelty troons like u
>>108256951I use Debian because it works well on my computer. The maintainers' personal opinions do not influence me. If they make the product bad, I'll just go find better. It's sad that the creator of Debian died, but we should be glad and thankful that he gave us this OS. He helped make the world a better place for us.
>>108256790>Nothing changed except Audacious skinthe skin didn't change from last time, there is a button (as in every winamp-esque client) to "roll up" a particular window>niceglad you appreciate it, its still my favourite rice <3>Sharing desktops is a tradition but sure defaults are kinda cringe. People should make their OS soulful.if a person is content with defaults, let them be content, ricing is not an obligation but an option, right now i dont feel like ricing>>108256951i dont care, rip ian though>>108256991have you tried trinity? its x11, not the stablest but it can work out for you.>I don't hate Wayland by itself; I only hate that X is getting dropped for Wayland.i share your sentiment amigo>>108257016i wonder if i should try recreating this rice and improve upon it, maybe not, idk>>108257080you tell em and oh my god thats my kinda panel. dots? i am interested
>>108257208>oh my god thats my kinda panel.thanks :)>dots? i am interestedits just a couple of basic modules stitched together. i should just swallow them all into a fixed panel or something, but i dont feel like changing ithttps://pastebin.com/raw/cNRVRW9Z
>>108256991(You)-posting to note that I incorrectly stated that Pantheon wasn't affected by Gnome's systemd dependency. Unless Pantheon freezes their Gnome shell, it is also affected.>>108257208>have you tried Trinity?Normally I'm skeptical of Qt desktops, but after looking up Trinity, I see that it's Qt3. I normally see Qt having lots of inexcusable rendering bugs, but I've only experienced Qt >4.0, so maybe it'll be alright. Thanks for the rec, anon.
>>108257339thanks m8, ive been thinking of going fvwm someday, should i do so, i'll likely take your panel as a base, it reminds me of old windows, a home that is no more.
>>108256991artix has one iso that ships with i3, maybe try that for minimal wm configuration...?
>>108257379absolutely. fvwm is my favorite wm. i am continually surprised just how capable it is. if you do try it out id recommend using this guys config as a base>https://datagubbe.se/fvwm/fvwm-gray2_config.txt then just take your time figuring out how everything works. you can also use a lot of the xorg tools like xwinfo or xprop to help you when building things like panels or widgets
>>108257491>datagubbe.sedamn this is a config goldmine, much thanks for telling me about it
Now with kmscon on ttys 4 and 6, which does a very poor job of rendering my gay font, so I had to resort to source code pro, there. Two of my ttys now have 256 colors and ligatures.
>>108249836>>108249841i can do a little bit of transparency with window manager tweaks, but i'll probably need to do custom css-ing in order to make it more accurateor i'll probably work more on making it my own thing>>108251448https://litter.catbox.moe/5bq78iv0blzy1u5l.jpgbest you'd get is a cheekjob

>>108261204Same with 1080p, no idea how people arent on 1440p and 2160p at this point, monitors haven't been cheaper, specially for a technology board, same goes for laptops.Guess it's just poor 3rd worlders ITT doing a circlejerk for the last decade.
>>108261923Shit takes up your whole goddamn screen. Do you wear glasses already?
>>108262063I just don't like replacing tech that still works.
>>108261889I even installed vivaldi during the course of those threads and deleted it because there was an account feature. I have an account, now, even though I could copy the profile and move it with scp.
>>108262176what do you mean? this is my 'dump' workspace where I put stuff whilst I'm working elsewhere. thought it more interesting than just showing a fullscreen browser window or any of my other workspacesno, I don't wear glasses
>>108262178shutup and consume goy
>>108262063i recently got a 1440p monitor and i cannot use it. i do not understand how to efficiently use the space. always too many or too little windows, always too zoomed in or too zoomed out. no fractional scaling feels perfect. ive ended up just manually creating huge 100px gaps on the sides, and using very tiny windows, with my head closer to the screen. by contrast, my 1366x768 laptop feels nice.
>>108262063actually i have both a 1080p AND a 1440p monitor, and yet i always end up doing work, gaming, anything really, on the 1080p, and only use the 1440p monitor as a tv. to be perfectly honest, i dont really need it. >Guess it's just poor 3rd worlders ITT doing a circlejerk for the last decade.sometimes less is more. if you look at actually productive and impressive people in tech you will more often than not see that their setups are surprisingly modest

>>108263646>out of every browser you picked opera? why?Old habit, Opera used to be amazing compared to other browsers in the early-mid 2000s so I just stuck with it (Yea I'm old.) Never even considered switching to another browser, well until now..I just made the switch to Firefox because in my experience it runs much better on Linux and even though I tried Linux decades ago I've just recently switched completely from Windows and I'm still figuring some things out.

>>108266171why mint
>>108266380because i grew up on windows XP and 7 and CLI are scary to me. linux mint is as close as i can get to 2000s era windows, before feature creep made it less usable.

I'm still relatively new to Linux (I installed CachyOS for gaming because I got sick of windows). What KDE Plasma theme do you guys recommend?
>>108266618Blud in Christ, member of the Bluderhood of Blud, a desktop theme is a personal thing, there is no one else in this flat Earth who can answer this question better than you, just pick the one you like the most.
>>108266650I'm aware but I can't spend all day trying themes at random, I just want suggestions
>>108266618I'm on pic related but not quite happy yet since it's a new machine.
happy to be here
>>108266760here's a suggestion, a year from now that choice wont mean shit, just pick whatever default is and move on with your life, time goes by in a blink of an eye... soon you'll have sciatica pain and white hair... and every time extra time will mean so much you wont even think about the things you worry right now, at the end of the day its just a computer.
