Not gonna lie, the fact that I can see all these neofetch images in the comment section has me sold on Lemmy over Reddit.

just one of many reason to choose a superior platform

I wasn't aware steamOS used Pacman, i thought it was immutable

3

You can kinda make it bend a bit to your whim. While it is technically immutable if you don't mess with it, it does have everything necessary for using pacman. It just all reverts next time steamos updates. Anything you install directly through the discover portal is permanent, but it does technically have access to anything in the pacman repos as well.

I unlocked mine long enough to download neofetch and take the screenshot for this. It'll revert back soon, but I only needed it temporarily for imaginary internet points. :)

WindowMaker and Chicago95, what a nice aesthetic you have going!

Haha, I'm just used to it, been using WindowMaker since 1999 I think (Red Hat Linux 5.2 Apollo was my first distro).

two skinny endeavour installs so far, so don't mind me with my bloat

I always enjoyed NixOS, but then I got some CRAZY hardware issues. Like my monitor wouldn't turn on crazy even though it'd be working fine for a while.

That sounds more like a kernel issue than a distro issue. Were you on regular linux or linux_latest?

1

Regular. Yeah I've NEVER hit anything like that before. My only guess is something in one of the kernel patches ran into my hardware and my hardware nope'd out.

i tried it once, for one reason or another i didnt get past a few minutes would love to try it again what would you say does nixos do over endevouros/arch?

what would you say does nixos do over endevouros/arch?

Well, ..everything?

Conceptually, endavour/Arch are closer to Windows than they are to NixOS. The only commonality is that they're made up of the same software components.

The way you set up a software environment is totally different. I'd highly recommend some research on what NixOS' declarative configuration is and what it means in practice.

Arch, Void, Arch, Gentoo, Arch, Arch,...you're all making me feel like a basic removed.

Super surprised to see the number of void linux here in this platform

3

There's a lemmy.ml/c/voidlinux community as well.

But yea, I once met a Void user at a party, and it seems like any number above '0' is a surprise.

It is! I mainly posted this to spread the word, SourceMage can always use more users :) We've actually been around almost as long as Gentoo!

If you ever have any problems getting it up and running, stop by #sourcemage on libre.chat irc and we'd be glad to help you!

It's a terminal program called neofetch. Some of the other screenshots use a similar program called pfetch.

I'd just be embarrassing myself, I don't have anything nearly as fancy.

the fanciness of your setup doesnt matter, its what you do with it, come on, dont be shy

This is my dualboot install on my old laptop that I used in high school. The trackpad is chipped, and I only use the Windows install for those pesky pieces of invasive proctoring software in use in my college courses. The Mint install, I primarily use for downloading stuff (Persepolis) and data recovery (Because Windows shits itself if you dare plug in a damaged drive).

ur serious right?

fetch commands refer to commands use to display system info (usually in a flexing manner)

neofetch should be avaliable in most package repos for download

Believe it or not, it's stock to this distro. If rolling releases and lots of purple and pink neon are your thing I urge you to check out Garuda Dr460nized.

The terminal theme is called Argonaut. Check this video on how to get it. I've even recreated this theme in Gradience for my self. I might someday send a PR upstream the zsh theme is powerlevel10k.

My Ubuntu desktop (Heavily Modified and de-Snapped, of course).

I actually do need that much RAM. I actually exhaust it on occasion, and would be super happy to upgrade to 128GB soon. Turns out it is possible to run too many data heavy docker containers while doing giant codebase compiles.

I'm not at my main machine, but here's my trusty laptop.
