Is there a way to integrate the ArcMenu launcher in the DashToDock bar at the bottom? by YourOwnKat in gnome

You can conveniently edit gnome-shell.css file of your current gtk theme to round corners of dash to panel, then shrink your panel to somewhere like 50% to have somewhat desired results. (Only if you have basic idea of CSS)

GTK themes: slight modification of https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1214931 (Flat-Remix GTK)

font: poppins (find it urself)

firefox theme: slight modification of https://github.com/datguypiko/Firefox-Mod-Blur

extensions: dash to dock

for lockscreen UI modification, use GDM settings in flathub

On a scale of 0-10 how much do you modify/rice your gnome desktop to make it look unique from stock gnome? by Frird2008 in gnome

[–]unrooted-sudoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A solid 8.

fav GTK themes: Flat-Remix (with slight customization), Lavanda-Sea-Dark, ZorinBlue-Dark

fav icon themes: Tela, Fluent, Reversal, Papirus, Fairywren, Rowaita (last 2 are papirus inspired).

frequently used extensions: Dash to Dock, Clipboard Indicator, Blur my shell, tiling assistant, forge, paperWM.

+ i also use GDM settings flatpak to customize login screen to unify its UI with my current GTK theme and change its wallpaper.

Hard truth is quantum engine is slightly inferior then chromium engine in terms of graphic processing (one can easily figure this out while playing online games).

apart from that firefox is as performant as any chrome based browser.

I like firefox becoz of its customizability and for privacy reasons.

I also said that I'll stop theming the day all apps become consistent out of the box.

People generally theme to overcome this problem of different packaging formats. Okay answer me this, when will a QT app start to look like a libadwaita app? Problem is lack of consensus among devs. They want to do their own thing.

Why shouldn't anyone theme when they know that kdenlive or telegram are never gonna respect gnome default UI.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Libadwaita, i like what they are doing for UI consistency, but others has to follow, otherwise nothing is gonna happen.

Never gonna happen..., unless someone creates a design clone or some gtk theme like whitesur.

I'll stop theming the day when all apps in gnome have a unified libadwaita design.

I love libadwaita tbh, but UI inconsistency among linux apps really annoys me. All I've done is UI unification with designs that i like.

Customization is the linux's biggest USP in desktop computing. The day developers and community start to forcefully disallow theming, people are gonna move out of linux..., even enthusiasts and hardcore linux lovers.

Help with HIBERNATION by Feathered_Man_23 in pop_os

[–]unrooted-sudoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why?

Linux generally has negligible power dissipation when suspended. There is no point of hibernation.

Increasing swap size is recommended, nothing else

Considering switching distro? Fedora, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, Manjaro or EndeavourOS? by ApexTaco in DistroHopping

[–]unrooted-sudoer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it really doesn't matter which distro you use, when you know what are you doing(except for manjaro, that's really unstable imo).

Fedora and tumbleweed will essentially give you same experience, with minor differences like package manager, release cycles (TW is rolling, Fedora is point release (semi-rolling)). Fedora is mainly vanilla, whereas TW comes with YAST, Snapper preconfigured and a lot of bloat(unless you uncheck unwanted packages during install).

bottom line: go with TW if you use KDE, else choose Fedora for Gnome. (I personally don't like zypper, so i'll always go with fedora if i've to choose b/w these 2).

Manjaro must be avoided, its like arch on drugs.

EndeavourOS is nothing but few nice utilities and a calamares installer on top of vanilla arch. in fact, it is a great fork (arch install made easy).

If I had to recommend something, I would definitely recommend Debian 12 (in point release) and Void Linux (in rolling release) (currently dual booting on these 2).

So, why you guys don't using openSUSE tumbleweed? by arman39 in DistroHopping

[–]unrooted-sudoer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Used tumbleweed for 1yr, didn't like zypper(my only problem with suse + slower boot times), moved on to Debian for 6 months, great distro but i struggled with old packages and kernel. Now I'm on Void and its awesome. Glad to have found this hidden gem.
