Just a few changes. Firstly, change to my newly made EndeavourOS wallpaper. Also added global menu, changed icons to Tela, changed application menu icon to monochrome, and a few other minor tweaks…

One word of caution: if you update your system as much as the average EOS/Arch user does, you’ll be eating up a lot of disk space, especially if you declare a bunch of system-related python modules. My NixOS Budgie VM takes up about twice the space of my other Linux VMs, and that’s with strict purging of generations.
If/when their Wiki approaches Arch’s in details/accuracy, it will be a much better experience.

I only have my desktop install setup and I don’t install anything I don’t need, same as how I had it with my Arch install. From my understanding of the documentation you can run these.
nix-collect-garbage: to remove old, unreferenced packages.
nix-collect-garbage -d: to remove garbage collector roots and old configurations, meaning you can’t boot from them anymore.

@ajgringo619 I would hope that information is correct and works, I got that information from the official manual and I hope the same for this.
Looks like some Suru++ theme.
I use these commands to cleanup after a NixOS upgrade:
nix-env --delete-generations 30d
sudo nix-collect-garbage --delete-older-than 30d
While it makes a difference, the disk usage is still higher than any of my other systems.
Check out the second link I shared, that seems to clean up space too.

Yeah it is. I just don’t remember where I downloaded it from lol.
The name of the icon set is
Material-Black-Plum-Suru
From Pling ?
Possible. I haven’t downloaded an icon pack in over a year and I don’t even remember what or where that was
A new to me Openbox theme. Dracula Without Border.
slowly replacing the menu icons with the Material-Black-Plum-Suru icons. Will see what i can do about the plank menu maybe modify the .desktop file for the icon.

Unseasonably cool today so I did my indoor work today. Got done a bit sooner than expected so went back to work changing all those icons lol. Got everything to this point with the menu. Was able to edit the .desktop files for those few on plank that didn’t change.

My old MacMini will always be EOS. But my laptop has gotten a distro-hop workout the past couple weeks! 
I think I’m sticking with Solus KDE Plasma 6 for a while. Give it a thorough workout. It’s been years since I used Solus to any real extent. Really liking where Solus has come over the years, especially since their re-birth a year or so ago.

I’ve gone rogue, and entered the void, complete with an oddball theming of XFCE that I think you could call ‘divisive’ if you were feeling tactful…
I do like its ruthless efficiency but the struggle it required of someone less knowledgeable like me really emphasised how good the Endeavour tools and documentation are as an addition to arch.

Nothing too impressive, been using EOS for a long time but always on Gnome, minus some KDE experimenting here and there. I’ve reinstalled and transitioned to KDE fully for my main PC where I game.
Icons: Papirus
Terminal: Kitty
Shell: Fish

XFCE satisfaction: you have to take the oddball route [because the default is frightening], and you will automatically pull your hair out because settings are scattered in 67 different places/windows for no reason that anyone explains. that you even got the taskbar dialed in is a testament to your fortitude. I usually trash it except for a 2 inch strip of applets then awkwardly throw plank on top of it.
and I love XFCE.
I just did this same dance with LXDE because apparently my ulcer wasn’t big or bloody enough but that payoff is in the end.
—this is a lot of blah blah blah to say great desktop and man alive what is that crisp, to-the-point icons theme? edit: it was as if my typos gave a times square style concert…
