    Look, your problem is all the competition. Lots of Linux users putting out Linux memes. So, to get a foothold you simply need to kill all the Linux users.

    I’ve started a neovim customizations using kickstarter.nvim, is fine to share it there once i finish it or should i keep it more linux related?

      I feel like as long as you’re running nvim in Linux you could take a screenshot of the whole desktop with nvim open to pass it off as ricing

    I mean I used to care about that but I kind of don’t anymore.

    Laptop running sway with literally nothing else except nautilus and Firefox, colorful wallpapers, transparent panels (not the focused one of course)

    My desktop meanwhile is stock cinnamon. I actually have no idea how to edit anything in cinnamon but I’ve changed the wallpaper.

        Most of my customization is backend (cronned git autocommits for doc clouds, automated file transfers for media share, scripted reprovisioning of locked down systems (steamdeck), webui automation for app access via ssh), but I appreciate front-end customization because it helps me to learn about the tools used to do so in case I ever do feel like adding some eye candy.

        Idk why so many folks act like two things can’t be good. Cool community idea. I’m not quite a customizer, but I am more KDE and less XFCE.

      I think it’s redundant. I wish the community didn’t keep its slightly cringeworthy reddit name, but it doesn’t make sense to have essentially a copy of the same thing under a new name, especially when it doesn’t have a lot of posts to start with.

        I really dislike that its called unixporn, though; while its not about porn in the slightest; same with hifiporn, or mapporn or what-have-you-porn. Beauty is way more positive.

    I’m gonna get some screenshots together for a post, leaving this comment as a reminder to myself.

    But yeah, if this community could have a few less chibi anime waifu wallpapers than UnixPorn does, I’m totally down to support it.

      thanks bro its means a lot, i mean i am not getting anything from the community I built but as a Linux user I just like to be helpful and share knowledge so others can benefit from it, because personally I had a hard time finding good tutorials or guides on customizing my Linux Mint. and yea Linux Beauty is just showing off the hidden beauty of Linux not making it look aggressive like the ones on UnixPorn.

        lol, my riced out EndeavourOS install running Hyprland could probably be considered aggressive modification, but with the right wallpaper and settings it looks pretty clean and minimal. I’ll see about getting some screenshots when I have time for a post.

        But yeah, I like the idea you’re running with. I’ve been all over the linuxsphere distrohopping and there are a lot of very pretty desktop environments out there. Even just Linux Mint Cinnamon without any modification is a gorgeous desktop.
