Which Linux distro are you using?

Me? This one’s MX.

Interesting, does MX use plasma 6 or 5? Also are you using Kvantum?

Also I would like to know how you got the file explorer looking the way you did.

MX does deb stable, so 5-ish. I do use kvantum, but not in the way you’d expect. I’ve explained most of it before…somewhere.
Long story short, what you see is a mixture of Lightly application style ( the light parts in this case,with some color fiddling), certain stuff ( mediaplayers, image viewers…) in kvantum ( cause I want those in my dark color), certain stuff in a kvantum/colorscheme mix, built-in color settings for certain apps ( for example what you find in kate, okular, krusader, qimgv and the lot) and custom gtk ( theme, colors, a few gtkrc settings, some userChrome css)( like that floorp browser). Some, like konsole, support css,so… In short, deb stable with some.
O yeah, klassy window decoration…without klassy window decoration ( for most)

On a sidenote: While kvantum looks cool at first and has its advantages, it’s also quite limited. In my usecase, using three colorschemes at most ( of which the dark one is always the same) it’s a lot easier to set stuff desktopwide by using an application style. In the end, it all depends what you want.

What about it? It came like that with the iso. Maybe the weirdo MX naughties call it Cuvier beaked whale or something, but it’s standard dolphin.

Things haven’t changed much, I’m just happy with my wallpaper.

(I commissioned the original artwork, I just ran it through some ASCII art thing and got this cool thing in return).

I really like the EndeavourOS theme, so I just copied it on my build. I guess I lack creativity.

Current desktop
little retro, bit modern. mostly glass.
Wallpaper engine is working on nix now though so I’m so happy.

Fedora KDE 41 with…mostly stock things :laughing:

I had a full-on Problem with obsessing over the setup of my phones, back in the day when Android personalization was all the rage (~2010) - custom launchers, the perfect folder layout, etc. Now I’m an iPhone user, and my phone home screens are just a dumping ground of every application in the order…that they were installed, I guess? :sweat_smile:

Anyway, I really like blue with occasional splashes of other colors, so starting up my PC and seeing this makes me smile.
