Damn this brings back some good memories. Except I was a fluxbox guy on my Slackware install...back when you had to compile damn near everything from scratch.
Good times...good times...
Fluxbox on gentoo myself, but otherwise, yeah.
I'm chasing this aesthetic.
lmao nice. oldschool. I'm enjoying KDE Manjaro currently, VM's for others
Ah enlightenment... memories

I love how every terminal window has a different background image set ;)

I'm a minimalist guy liking minimalist things. But everything has to be equal and symmetrical.
