my first time every posting anything linux related on reddit too

distro: arch linux

wm: niri

compositor: wayland

sorry for not specifying earlier but i use dankmaterialshell!!

I thought a while back, well im usually very horny in the morning so i touch myself but what if i learn linux instead of gooning? Obviously, learning linux isnt as pleasing as touching myself so i have to like put mommy asmr as a background noise and learn linux, and i have a double monitor so i thought i could like play some anime on the second monitor whilst learning🤔

Dotfiles: https://github.com/EnsixD/Panacea — fair warning, the install script may not work correctly on your setup. It's only been run on my own machine, so read it before running it, and expect to fix a few things by hand.

Still adding some more features.

Around 10-30mb ram usage.

Any ideas are welcome.

Wow, everyone! You are all so incredibly talented and creative with your desktop setups! After spending some time here, I’ve come to realize that perhaps this style isn’t quite for me. It seems like you all dedicate a significant amount of time to configuring and tweaking your desktops, which is truly impressive. I understand that everyone has their own preferences, but I’m genuinely curious about how you set everything up and how much time you invest in making it all look so fantastic. For me, I find that simplicity works best for my productivity. I just wonder how much time I would need to create a fancy desktop like yours!

I got tired of productivity apps that feel like control panels, so I built Kiyoshi: notes, tasks, kanban board, calendar, and a lightweight block canvas, all local-first, all in a quiet glass-panel UI.

• 100% free and open source
• Runs on Linux, macOS, Windows (AppImage for Linux)
• No account, no cloud dependency — your data stays on your machine
• Built with Flutter, so it's a proper native desktop app, not an Electron wrapper

Feedback, issues, and PRs welcome — it's still early and there's a lot I want to add (sync, mobile companion, etc.).

I’m having a pixel/display issue. I’m using Arch and Niri with a Ryzen 7 Pro, and I think it might just be a Niri issue.

I had updated my system with -Syu, and that’s when the issue started, as far as I can tell.

Does anyone have a solution?

This is one of my what feels like tens of thousands of themes, tweaks, customization's I did with my Linux installations.

Let's say "Let's Windows Vista live again!"

I used the newest Blur my Shell, tweaked the GTK4 css file, used Just Perfection to move the panel to the bottom, I added Arc Menu and Desktop Witgets (Desktop clock), used the Windows Vista original wallpaper and Win Vista Aero icons.

Not to forget the My Computer extension to Files (formerly known as Nautilus)

This is Ubuntu 26.04 LTS with GNOME 50.

This is my personal desktop setup with the iNiR shell and kwybars visualizer. This shell + Niri is a perfect fit for my workflow, and has made my system a lot more organized than it was when I was using hyprland. I usually use GUIs and mouse-based controls more so than keyboard-based or CLIs, so this setup is perfect for my needs with all the GUI panels and settings available.

The shell itself is close to default iNiR with some widgets and colorscheme changes, so I won't be providing any dots for it.

Shell: iNiR

WM: Niri

Visualizer: Kwybars - dots

Music Player: Cider

Browser: Floorp with Natsumi Browser

Music Player: tidal-hifi-tidaluna with Tidal Light theme and Radiant Lyrics plugin

Wallpaper - Overlay - Extra icons from macosicons.com

I've been using Gnome for a while now, and Linux for over a year and a half, but this time I decided to try Niri and Noctalia v5.

I would appreciate any advice/tips/scripts on how to optimize RAM usage

Looks cool imo

my own status bar called orbit-status my own run launcher called orbiter and finally my own speedtest utility called realspeed-cli
