Why is nobody making one?Previous: >>108301121
posting a curated screenshot of your desktop is really banal and i cant think of anything more boring to do at your computer
>>108358327>I don't like this thread>Better go tell them
>>108358243desktop threads unfortunately have gone down a lot in quality, doesn't seem like most people are interested in posting them anymore.
>>108358348posting in them*
>>108358243Looks really calm but the window layout is a bit odd>>108358348 Nice pape
>>108358243>why is nobody making one?because every thread is filled with degenerates, you posted a black screen, the faggots below, some tranime bullshit. It will be dead as long as you allow these faggots to exist.

>>108358595I got rid of it! :3
thank you new op, for you have let me rest from my op position (i hate posting the same exact setup over and over again), expect to see curated old screenshots from me again, of which i have very few.>>108358348cozy looking pape and xfce, 'ery noice>>108358489redmond97 and this xfwm theme is sure an interesting combination but not sure if i like imagining it>>108358530as ive said, desktop threads are dead>>108358647define 4chan being a bitchmaybe its the default cookie settings that are fucking you over? if so try making exceptions, i know cause i've used librewolf before.
>>108358243any DEs that do scaling past 100% well on a 14" screen or do i need windows for that
To those posting from a laptop, what's your preferred resolution scale?
I am having an issue with my pop!_os system
>>108358348Love this one
>>108358348most people aren't interested in making desktops any more because basic default desktops are good enough for most shit these days

Honestly these threads were only really fun during when Thinkpads started to become a /g/ memeThese threads have just felt like wallpaper threads for the longest time

>>108360435Heheheh
>>108358695>redmond97 and this xfwm theme is sure an interesting combination but not sure if i like imagining itMy goal wasn't even to make it look retro but I couldn't find any icon/theme combinations that would fit, let me know if you have any
certainly not very creative (Catppuccin theme) but I like it.

>>108360944Cute cat.

>>108358530Wallpaper, please?

>>108358243thank u for starting the threat op, i enjoy seeing other ppl's desktop. might switch to KDE and start ricing but gnome is so /comfy
Opinions?
>>108358696i have never liked 90s styled rices (or at least attempts to make one) on modern des like kde plasma and this is one example of why i dont like them, they're incredibly inconsistent>>108358790everything sucks with scaling above 100%>>108358797100% or nothing on a 15-inch 1080p laptop, if you ever need to go beyond then you have picked a laptop with a garbo screen resolution and size>>108358809pop!_os seems to be generally shit from what i am seeing, if you want cosmic just pick any other distro that supports it at this point>>108358957hey man, once again you bake, as usual, i should make a setup like yours. raleigh is the gtk, is it?>>108359389>half-life enjoyerabsolutely based>>108359450i'm feeling better to say the least, but you do realise that i absolutely do not care about you getting employed in china, i'm not your second jordan>>108360177that's good because there's enough activity at the very least
>>108362311Show some windows open, can't really say anything about a bar and a wallpaper other than it doesn't really match.>>108362206Catpuccin themes are the coziest, I also use Mocha + Green accent.
My desktop is boring, I don't use desktop shortcuts.
I fixed the fonts. My 4 year old nearly shit a brick when I showed him the I spy games

>>108362678why use virtualbox when u have access to KVM+QEMU
>>108362686You should try matching the colors with your top-bar or something.>>108362726Can you drop the wallpaper pls?
>>108362499>Catpuccin themes are the coziest, I also use Mocha + Green accent.agreed! I do like gruvbox (medium), too, but it seems kind of broken with GTK. Some windows just have black background and that looks ugly. >>108362678Is this real? This looks crazy. Very impractical, but really cool.
>>108360865that's fair, though i wasn't trying to suggest you were going for a retro setup but a modern/retro hybrid has never looked good for me>>108360944it's alright>>108362206i came to love every de i have so far mained. gnome, kde, xfce, tde even, have all been lovable for me in their own right>>108362311it's alright, nice panel colours>>108362549you have a 4 year old? man, i wish my 4 year old brother grew up with this instead of smart tvs>>108362678so far this is the worst retro-styled setup i have ever seen, your panel's fucked up too
Never obsolete
>>108363090obsolete because my laptop's uefi class 3, best i can do is make everything else look like xp, like picrel, the system is windows 10.
>>108363108>obsolete because my laptop's uefi class 3It doesn't have CSM?
>>108362921
>>108363119no such option, i checked, this means my laptop is too new even for fucking windows 7 (i also checked, for lulz).but honestly, fuck windows, unix-likes ftw, i am content with using linux, though i do consider trying out freebsd again after getting filtered by setting up its graphics drivers (failed installing kde, miserably so, sddm didn't even render), i like fucking around sometimes.
I like the captcha with the squares and lines.
>>108363175sexy wallpaper>>108362715>>108362726I like it
>>108363170 (cont.)hopefully i garner up motivation and contribute to xfce-winxp-tc since that seems to be the only good windows xp recreation for unix-likes out there but its very raw (which is why it needs contribs).currently i use aerothemeplasma, my current setup is the last op, hasn't changed from there in any way, ive also used vistathemeplasma.ice2k looks nice, i have yet to use it but i know the developer behind it, cool guy.as for chicago95 it fucking sucks.
Thoughts on Artix? I'm thinking of installing Arch and converting it to Artix but I've never used runit. How about you guys?
>>108363243I would recommend the openrc or dinit versions over runit
>>108363243ive used runit on void for some time. fairly straightforward and extremely fast. there's not really much to it, processes work by manually creating a symlink of the process to a specific directory that is read by the init system. never ran into any problems
ayyy
>>108363298Windows Essentials still being updated?
>>108363383Yes
>>108363078>your panel's fucked up tooIt's not, it's just an awkward mid-animation screenshot from the Spectacle window closing
>>108362678wow don't even have HYPII BWL
>>108363463>>108362678oh yeah i forgot i also have shitty compiz era vibes desktop effectsi love my setup
>>108363078I got 3 kids, 5,4,3. This project is mostly for them, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't having fun with it too. Me and my wife are old fags so we know the dangers of just turning a kid loose on the internet, or just handing them a tablet.Plus OS9 is just nice to look at and use.

>no rices, everyone mostly use 'normal' desktops just with different themes and wallpaperswhat happened to ricing meme? did it dieded already?
>>108363929You can only rice so much, everything has been done.And most people realize 80% of that shit does not matter after you post your shit online once.
>>108363929wayland adoption has forced the standardization of user space and it shows. though some anons still stand out, like:>>108358957>>108360177>>108363175very nice!
>>108363765https://www.macintoshrepository.org/1706-kaleidoscope This guy right here? Also, I've never owned anything apple in my life so it's all new to me. I just grew up around printing shops and lusted after the acrylic era stuff that was industry standard there at the time.
>>108363452ah, makes sense>>108363577i wish i was as good of a brother to my 4yo brother as you are a father to your kids, wish you the best man.>>108363622oof, i wish it was that simple, thing is i used explorerex which needs a specific kind of windows 10 theme as explorerex is a mod of windows xp's explorer (from the source code) and far as i know those themes aren't really on deviantart, alas i no longer have it on me but i think i got the theme from a dude named travis, y'know, the guy responsible for the windows 10 mod called windows experience, i happen to be on good terms with him, i happen to be on good terms with quite a few people ive known for windows modding matter of fact. i think he only resides on discord servers and winclassic though so...>>108363783thas clean alrite, love the widgets.>>108363856panel reminds me of early 2010s, 11/10>>108363882for the love of all that is above ellen i ask you to not take advantage of me and jerk off to my posts, especially not after i've grieved over a breakup, if you can even call it that>>108363959i dunno, i think wayland has nothing to do with this, what really matters is what tools does a de/wm provide you.>>108364087so good, is this enlightenment?
>>108364297 (cont.), to >>108363622though i can offer you an alternative, there's luna10, it's a good theme plus i used the shellstyle from it on travis' theme.
>>108364297>>108363882Bro why don't you 2 meet up and fuck already
>>108364297nah, it's a rat with e17 gtk theme (which is incredibly well made)
>>108364297>what really matters is what tools does a de/wm provide you.i hate to break it to you but whatever tools a de/wm has is dependent on whatever functionality the *protocol*/display has to begin with. wayland gave up a lot of the user space freedom that x11 has in the name of security. too much freedom for the user = bad security is literally the point of wayland, which is why it is shilled by the entire corpo side of linux
>>108364317there is a reason why i ask ellen to fuck off a lot, she's obsessed, over me and over jordan to a creepy degree, neither of us two are certainly in the mood for that, especially me as of recent due to real-life events which i have already mentioned.>>108364327i see. still very nice.>>108364347ive seen at least a few wms ported into wayland, dwl, wlmaker and such. while they are not exactly finished they are promising so...personally i think no one gives a shit about good rices since mid 2010s.

Playing around with quickshell and ghostty shaders, not sure how much time I want to sink into making this look good.Starting from a fresh rice with minimal previous rice configs (only my tmux and neovim)My Xorg is in a crummy state, hence the lag in the video that isn't there for me but bah, I don't wanna dig in right now
>>108367063>once downed 2/3rds of a wine bottle, made me stop thinking about my life for a while, i'd do anything just to stop thinking about my lifeI hope things get better for you anons. I hate drinking personally and think it’s a horrible coping mechanism even if it feels good in the moment. Eventually you will both look and feel like shit more than you already do and it kind of turns into a cycle. No one really enjoys being around an alcoholic.You would unironically be better off doing something like microdosing on shrooms though I know not everyone is into this and I wouldn’t recommend it if your family has a history of mental illness or whatever.Im currently totally sober and just taking punches from life head on. My escape mechanism is mostly just vidya, anime, or taking with friends and it seems to hold me together without needing substances.
>>108358348whats with your "stuff" directory naming scheme lol
I gotchu senpaiFedora KDEBing Wallpaper of the DayFitgirl RepacksHeaven
>>108367826I started out with a single folder named stuff I would keep images I liked in and the naming scheme just stuck lol. Eventually I wanted stuff 2 because it was getting harder to find specific images, and then I also brought in og stuff and stuff 2 old from a laptop I was using once with 2 stuff folders as well. Then I also decided to make a shitposting folder with images I usually post on 4chan for quicker access, but I generally know which stuff folder the image/file I want is in by memory and how much I have to scroll to find it. I could definitely organize this way better but im just used to these folders lmao.

>>108371279Tranny-chan here. Niri is very good with touchpad gestures. It comes preconfigured with them, along with many sane defaults. As far as configuring it to meet your needs, I’d say the only thing I configured was the modkey, how to manipulate windows by keyboard, and shadow options
