btw, I wanted to add Pantheon (Elementary OS’ Desktop) too but upon dependency issues I decided not to
No sway? No Fluxbox? No i3? No Plasma(wayland)? Pathetic. (jk)
Good input, I’m gonna add these to my collection
no Pantheon, arguably the most polished DE
Bspwm? dwm? What about my favorites??
Make your own with GTK and Hyprland using ags. Its like gnome on the backend but your own custom JavaScript for the frontend.
The authors personal dotfiles are pretty slick.
If I find the time & motivation to do so I might do. Atm I’m happy with what I’ve got (not this setup, this is just a VM I use for “scientific purposes”)
You’re missing some tiling window managers
True, I might expand upon them ;)
Where is hyprland ?
I’ll add it :D
What OS are you on? I hear it’s a pain to add to Ubuntu.
Using pop on that testing vm but some peops said Nix would be better for that experiment bc I already faced dependency issues whilst trying to add Pantheon
Thanx
XFCE for me thanks
Hehe :p
What, no Enlightenment?
Yeah, I forgot some window managers I admit :')
where’s the glorious Dwm ?
The only correct option
Another one for the list ;)
That’s literally me when I first got into Linux
I remember making lots and lots of VMs and sitting night over night because VM ≠ real hardware (surprisingly)… Those were wild times
The boot menu was pretty long as well!
Gotta get some ratpoison
But will it kill my XFCE (because of the mascot - idk if it’s a rat or mouse)?
What is cutefish, and how do I use it?
It’s basically a Plasma fork that mimics macOS. It has been made for CutefishOS but it is also obtainable for Ubuntu/Debian based distros via a script but idk if it is available to other distros aswell and how well Cutefish actually works because the Desktop is one of those that really didn’t handle all the other desktops well (or maybe the script didn’t execute properly)
I went to the GitHub for it and I love the look but it appears abandoned as far as I can tell. Very sad. Maybe I’ll reach out to the old maintainer and fork it. I spend a lot of time making gnome look like Mac OS so this looks fun.
Tbf you could change Plasma to work similar to macOS’ Desktop in a few clicks and Unity also gets close if I am not mistaken (and has been revived afaik)
That was me, long ago…
I’m quite happy with my setup (not this one. This is just a VM I set up for “scientific purposes” and to see how some DEs are evolving)
