Spent lots of time with Gnome 2.
In Dec 2024 I got hooked in Hyprland on Arch and have a cool rice for it. But I’ve tried KDE on desktop now with Parrot OS since Plasma is popular. Still need to find some cool dot files or rice it myself.
I’ve noticed SwayFX getting lots of love lately. I might use that as an option with Plasma but am afraid of conflicts. I’m excited about it since Linux has now officially replaced windows on my gaming rig, which is the very last MS computer left in my house.
KDE on Arch, aesthetically pleasing and mostly functional out of the box. There are some startup quirks, but that’s likely due to my LUKS setup which I will change with the next re-install. Already tried to fix multiple times, it’s too much of a hassle to keep trying to fix an <5 minutes per day issue.
