How does your desktop look like /t/? How ricy is it?

>>886 Thanks! I've always enjoyed using tile-anons stuff since it hits the comfy vibes I want from my system 😁

It's nothign special
>>
i did this several months ago (or maybe more than a year) and then i havent had time to make more ricings. its ok for me anyway.
>>
Got tired of ricing and in general of the "build your own DE" experience made of non interoperable components that constantly break because its author decided to. KDE just works. >hahaha krashde Works on my machine.
>>
>>928 Although to be honest I miss the tilling WM experience, and no, the KDE tilling scripts aren't the same thing.
>>
>>929 use i3wm with lxde never did that though i3wm with i3bar and picom combination is sweet
>>
>>930 I don't like manual tilling managers. I used dwm in the past though. I use KDE because I can configure things through a GUI, even though I can do it on the CLI, I got tired of it. Or for example connecting to a wifi network, I don't want to open the terminal. Also I use wayland only because it allows me to replace the GTK file picker with the Qt one. Each time I see the GTK file picker it makes me want to neck myself.
>>
>>930 >>931 I thought about lxde, maybe I will try when its wayland support becames more stable.
>>
>>931 >even though I can do it on the CLI, I got tired of it I configured my i3wm years ago and never touched it since except some changes to startup scripts here and there to accommodate changes in my workflow. >Or for example connecting to a wifi network Depends on how often you change them. Even if you do, wpa_gui exists. As you wish ofc, but I prefer to keep it as simple as possible without having to use my butthole.
>>
>>928 >LibreWolf Good choice
>>
>>934 I hear it's on decline though. Maybe it's time to go for mullvad browser, but reproducible builds take 999TB of space and also they install in /opt which is a retarded take. I share /opt across multiple installations and their approach is obnoxious. System packages should go into /lib. /opt is for me. I SAID FOR ME

I finally transferred from Mint to Arch after using Linux for over a year. I'm trying out Trinity DE since I love old UI.
>>
Oh yeah every linux newbie has to come through the Arch linux phase. Glad you're liking it, and I hope you're wise enough to despise systemd and move away from it asap
>>
>>947 I'm well-aware about other distro that doesn't have systemd like Artix (Hell, I even tried it out before Arch). I didn't do as much though but time will tell though.
>>

>>947 I don't really see what's too bad with systemd anymore.
>>
>>949 It's a ticking bomb malware. Putting aside it's abhorrent design, systemd is not an init system, it is a """base OS""" that is meant to bring about a lockdown of linux ecosystem so jews can take hold of it. And what does it do? It basically implements windows on linux or whatever. Goys like you won't notice a difference because in terms of using your goybrowser (chrome, yes?) there is truly no difference. You just fail to see the broader picture either because you're dumb or just stubborn. Systemd is sweet poison if it's not opposed linux and its freedom will basically be done for good. They are doing with linux the same thing they've done to browsers. There are literally no browsers on the market. Firefox is barely stumbling along and all other browsers are chromium based. And firefox is owned by google, mozilla being a proxy company. Just put off your pink glasses already.
>>
>>952 The Linux kernel has a 2000 line (toplevel) Makefile and is above 20 million lines of C code but you are not complaining about that.
>>
>>952 meds
>>
>>953 Because it's a monolithic kernel are you dumb? By the way linux codebase is a mess it has more vulnerabilities than there are starts in the universe. >>954 >redhat jew tries to cover the tracks Fuck you morons.
>>
>>955 Ok but you do realize that systemd also has a lot of tasks right? Linux' POSIX implementation relies heavily on the init system, this discussion has been had before though. Can you like, stop rambling about systemd? Find other software to whine about, this one got boring.
>>
>>956 No, systemd IS ticking bomb malware, I will not keep silent about it. Everyone who's got two braincells and doesn't work for redhat must know that by using systemd they make software freedom one step closer to demise

What desktop environment do you use?

i3wm is the best one if you're not up to spending a year or two doing deep meaningful configuration like you would with awesomewm

It's really not much, I barely rice because there isn't much to rice to begin with. just dwm + st. QubesOS btw.
>>
>>1013 Qubes is too hardware demanding.
>>
>>1014 Partially true. I've made my Qubes to be as minimal as possible, and have done a lot of research on Xen powersaving stuff. 'tlp bat' and doing 'xenpm set-sched-smt enable' seem to work best for powersaving, 'tlp bat' and 'xenpm set-sched-smt disable' for regular workloads, and 'tlp ac' and 'xenpm set-sched-smt enable' for performance. 'xenpm set-scaling-governor' and 'xenpm disable-turbo-mode' don't seem to work for me.
>>
But yeah, QubesOS isthe reason why my Thinkpad doesn't last longer than ~1.2 hours lol
>>
>>1016 Can't you guys just run a VM with custom firewall settings like normal people?
>>
>>1021 Well, no. QubesOS provides the best of the best when it comes to complete compartmentalization, you literally can't beat it with your homemade setup. Unless you're gonna reimplement QubesOS, by using Xen as hypervisor and just reinventing the wheel. Also, QubesOS is definitely not for normal people lol.
>>
>Schizophrenic overkill is better because... better! I diagnose you Asperger's. >Not for normal people I would think a good 1/5 people on any given alt chan take drugs.
>>
>>1023 I am not a schizo, I just use QubesOS because my threat model asks for it. I use my laptop for a lot of different stuff (school, work, personal, freelance programming) and I don't want anything interacting with other files. I need a system that can compartmentalize everything, from firewall to PCI devices. And no, I am not a druggie either. Drugs are gay.
>>
>>1013 People use Qubes as a daily driver?
>>
>>1026 I do yeah
>>
behh i dont really rice but here it is! i hope you like it
>>
>>1032 >sewerslvt nice, not really my style but overal unique rice. 6/10 because not using a tiling window manager
>>
>>1033 >sewerslvt hey whats with pointing that out

>>1034 sewervlut has been a subject of some flamewars about his/her opinions on racism or whatever. >>1032 name you init system NOW
>>
>>1034 I enjoy his music, that's all. >>1035 seperate art from artist. I don't care about sewerslvt's personal opinions as long as they don't mix it into their music.
>>
>>1035 >name you init system NOW blehhhhhh neverrrrr
>>
>>1037 why?
>>
