        Absolutely do not checkout “conky” and under no circumstances search for “conky themes” in image search. A program for the utterly deranged

        For me it was “what else don’t I need on here?” from the start tbh :3 though I very much did not like the workflow of windows, so being able to nuke all the features that were similar that I found useless was like a sigh of relief since it was like getting rid of annoying clutter in a hoarder’s house lol

        Now I basically only have my panel/bar thing on the left of the main display with the time, app tray (cause some apps need it to shut down and stuff lol), wifi, settings/power off, kde connect, and the blue light filter… though tbh im considering getting rid of the settings icon from there too

      One day, after years of chipping away small, useless details, your interface will finally be a blank screen. Flawless.

        Almost there already tbh :3… if I didn’t need a clock or notifications, then I may have gone to just having my whole desktop be the wallpaper and nothing else lol

        Now if only I could disable all the UI I don’t like in all the apps I need too lol

      Herbstluftwm or bspwm or i3.

      Remove all the things.

      I’m so close to removing X and using only a console, except

      • Jami has no terminal app
      • Inkscape
      • Gimp
      • No terminal web browser works for every site I need to visit
      • The Factory Must Grow

      Edit in which Sxan discovers þat double-vertical-bars in piefed comments turns inline text into “spoiler” text. Fixed.

        Yeah there’s just too much graphical stuff I need for me to go full CLI lol… plus for a lot of stuff I prefer being able to just click a button and have it done rather than typing in a full command :3

        TWMs are fun tho :3… I’ve tried a bunch including both i3 and bspwm lol
