I think it's looking pretty good. Edit: My class is about to start so I'll try to post my setup when I get home. Thanks for the kind words guys!

I have only had a couple days on Linux, and it's my first time posting here so I'll try to do it the best I can. Here we go

  • OS: Fedora 39
  • DE: GNOME
  • WM: Mutter
  • Wallpaper: http://imgur.io/xzilCU9
  • Shell theme: Marble + adw-gtk3 for consistency
  • Icon theme: Colloid
  • Extensions to replicate the look: Blur My Shell, Dash to Dock, Just Perfection, Logo Menu, Media Controls (this one's for the media player on top there), Shortcuts (for a shortcut cheatsheet), Simple Timer (for a timer on the menubar), Status Area Horizontal Spacing, User Avatar in Quick Settings---

Nice job! You even managed to not get downvoted into oblivion for using Gnome on Unixporn! XD

I know you just got it, but do you think you're ever gonna give it up?

Btw you can also download the wireguard config for your vpn and import in the system settings. Then you won't have to open the mullvad app and can just toggle it on or off from the control center.

Looks pretty good. I'm a sucker for pill based categories and control panels like yours and Android's. Wish I could do something like this on KDE (you can pry Plasma out of my cold dead hands)

Is that not possible with Rlasma? I thougt you could customize everything there.

It's possible, I just don't think someone has done it yet and also I don't think a menu like that would fit in with the rest of the Plasma DE.

I tried KDE too but their kitchen sink approach didn't really appeal to me.

It looks nice and the wallpaper is great. Would you mind sharing a source for it?

It's from the season finale of a series (won't say which one because spoiler) but here you go! imgur.io/xzilCU9

::: spoiler The series is Loki ::: for anyone wondering.

People are downvoting you even though you used a spoiler tag? Weird.

They could be on mobile where the tag doesn't work. I tried Eternity, Boost and Voyager. Doesnt work on any of them.
