What does your desktop look like?

This is my my phone running Debian with XFCE:

Gnome + Dash to Dock + Arc Menu. Nothing too crazy.

<3 my pinephone pro

Just XFCE

Stuff here is:

• Hyprland: Window Manager
• Waybar: Status bar
• Kitty: Terminal
• Neovim: Editor
• swww: Wallpaper daemon (Image (archive.org link, scroll down) is a promotional wallpaper for Slime Rancher)

Workspace 3, which I actually use:

Additional stuff here:

• ncmpcpp: front-end for mpd (Music Player Daemon)
• Newsboat: rss reader

The pretty wallpaper and Catppuccin Mocha theme terminal carry the looks quite a bit tbh.

I never understood why people make their linux distros look like mac

Well, here's my little piece of ugly:

Edit: And as for Termux:

Just a completely blank screen atm, I updated to plasma 6 and it has not been going well lol

Well, mine looks like Windows XP, but not.

Just did a fresh install of EndeavourOS with KDE 6...still using the same theme I've been using on 5.27 for months. I call it 'Windows 7 but better'

And yes I deleted my last comment while figuring out how embedding images actually works >.>

Pretty utilitarian on the ol thinkpad

Pretty simplistic, but I really like it :)

• Arch
• Hyprland
• Lots of dracula

Here's my weeb'd out set-up. KDE Plasma 6 with the Breeze Dark theme and a slideshow of animu wallpapers.

Edit: gah I forgot to mention my OS. At the risk of sounding like a meme... It's Arch.

Like default KDE fedora. I’ve done zero tweaks

If I ever started customizing my KDE Plasma, then that would be the last direction I'd ever go in.

KDE plasma 6 on Nobara. breeze with Catpuchin theme and wall paper

Looks like this, 3 monitor setup

GNOME 45.5 with only a few extensions. Most of the good ones break every time there's a new GNOME release anyway. I especially miss having the top bar on all monitors. Dash to Dock on the center monitor.

• Debian 12
• Openbox
• Tint2
• Minimal japanese wallpaper

Pretty minimal to my habits :)

I'm basic...

Fedora Kinoite, Plasma desktop, Arc shell theme, and Catppuccin window/app theme.

I included more information about my setup on my Codeberg page.

Default GNOME I'm a simple girl

Mine, Fedora Atomic Budgie. Materia GTK Theme. Intended to keep the focus on my windows rather than my desktop or theme.

i probably have the most boring desktop known to man

found the wallpaper here

I use:

• Arch linux
• sway
• i3status
• 22 different wallpapers

I despise Apple, but ngl this looks beautiful

• OS: Manjaro
• DE: KDE Plasma 5
• Global: Scratchy
• Plasma Style, Window Decorations, and Colors are customized and don't remember their sources, sorry
• Icons: Colorful-Dark-Icons
• Cursor: Breeze

I know there's a lot of defaults in here, but this has been my daily driver for 6 years now and been loving this setup

Wallpaper is Bing image of the day

I have a folder where I dump any interesting wallpaper I find, and it rotates every few seconds, so this is already inaccurate... :)

Fresh install, KDE Neon 6.0.0 user edition:

What music player is that?

do you feel weird using logos for an OS you're not using? Like, I'd find it weird to use Manjaro's logo on my KDE Neon desktop. Maybe I'm just a stickler for da roolz

KDE Plasma on Manjaro Linux

• Desktop folder pinned to left screen for working stuff
• Conky on my 3rd screen for monitoring resources
• Plasma Activity folder on 3rd screen for general folders used often (On Gaming and Video Recording activities this folder differs for those activities)
• Golobonotes pinned notes on 3rd screen fore commonly accessed references

• openSUSE Tumbleweed
• xfce
• theme (diy, but inspiration and code also from various themes)
• icons (standard ones, diy & symbolic lucide icons, weather icons and openSUSE start button (i cant find again the source for))
• wallpaper macOS Big Sur from 512pixels.net

That it i guess 🤔

Custom OpenBox and tint2 setup.

KDE Plasma 5 on Wayland, Opensuse Slowroll. Big Sur theme with latte dock. 4 virtual desktops in a 2x2 grid (not visible in screenshot)

Different docks for different kinds of apps.. Slightly ugly, but very convenient.

Mint Cinnamon with a few tweaks.

Excellent. Mature, functional, clean.

Mine is pretty simple, about the same since 2008, Xfce, with a bottom taskbar with window, a little bit like in Windows XP. I added Teams quicklaunch lately, else it's only file manager, FF, terminal.

Pretty close to default. Using SF Compact Display fonts and Newaita reborn icons. Most of the time I have a bunch of windows open and I rarely see the desktop, except when I start the day :)

Yes

Endeavour OS KDE. Sorry ;-)

No, I normally don't use emacs as browser.

• NixOS
• Hyprland
• Waybar
• Dracula

--

Mine is simply default KDE. The only visible thing I've changed is the wallpaper -- changes to my desktop mostly concentrate on the "invisible" ones like shortcut keys or setting changes or scripting.

EndeavourOS (Arch-derived), Hyprland, KITTY terminal, custom furry art wallpaper(s) that I commissioned.

If i wanted to use MacOS, i'd just use my macbook

anyways, my linux looks like standard mint... coz im a linux noob

Seeing lots of discord on these. Anyone else like me and have to install updates to it a couple times a week from the package manager before it will open? I also notice it seems to close itself after a while, I think if the computer sleeps then wakes.

Permanently Deleted

I've been running stock Pop!_OS for quite a while now. The only thing I've done is pin the dock to the left side of the screen.

By the way, I see Toto coming up on your playlist!

More or less replicated the desktop layout I had used throughout childhood, sans desktop icons

• Debian 12 stable
• XFCE + Chicago95
• Chicago95 black cursors
• Helvetica bitmap font
• Not shown: wdm login and slock screen locker
• Running on an X230T with classic keyboard mod to complete the look

11 inch screen, so packed pretty tight. Openbox with tint2, left half of the top bar is conky. The bargraph that shows "Mem" is dynamic, it alternates between Mem/Swap/HD. I think the background image is from LXDE's very nice collection of wallpapers.

I'm on pop os with gnome but using dash-to-panel to get a more classic Taskbar look. I love that extension and seems extremely well supported even across upgrades, it's so good I donated. Maybe I'll add a screenie later.

As for op's pic, I understand liking a particular setup, but to use their proprietary icons too seems strange to me. To each their own, I guess. I thought it was literally a mac on a Linux /c.

I have a custom animated shader as my desktop background

Permanently Deleted

I use gnome with dash-to-panel. I can't do docks or top bars.

Currently, I have 3 DEs installed that I use regularly. Cinnamon, i3, and Unity. Cinnamon is for retro themes, and Unity is for a modern mac look after tweaks. and i3 is just nerd porn

Debian with KDE. I've had this set up on my laptop for a few weeks to see how well Debian stable would work as a daily driver with Flatpaks and/or Nix packages mixed in. I'm really liking it so far, so I'll probably migrate my desktop over to a pretty similar set up soon. Right now it looks pretty similar visually, but is running Fedora 39.

Like this

What is that music app?

At this point you might go for a hackintosh.

This is my most recent one. I’m working on a new one that uses tint2 instead of xfce4-panel. Having trouble with the systray though😤

Is that a iOS wallpaper?

Ive just been booting straight into sway

At this point why not use Pantheon instead of GNOME?

Extremely basic right now.

Nobara 39, vanilla plasma 6, breeze chameleon icons. I just took icons-only task manager out, put it on the bottom, and threw everything else of the ceiling. Some spacers to get the clock in the middle. I'm a KDE Konvert with Gnome DNA.

Nobara 39, vanilla KDE 6, breeze chameleon icons. Can you tell i'm a KDE konvert with Gnome DNA?

I have no idea.
