I always thought that shell prompt was a special config within fish itself. Glad I saw your post, @Noodly. I installed fisher, then installed the tide plugin and ran tide configure. Worked great!

Cool, it’s pretty nice isn’t it. I tried Oh My Fish as well. I was hoping it would be more like Oh My ZSH is on ZSH but wasn’t so keen on it.

Modified my desktop little bit. I kept the original theme, because I like it a lot.

I also started on SuSE 6.3.

I picked up a boxed copy from Fry’s Electronics.

Never looked back.

This looks pretty sweet!

I have, definitely a strong drive to tinker around with TUIs … ( down the rabbit hole :rabbit2: :hole: )

General: Kitty using custom color themes, with fish shell & tide prompt (AUR)

  • Top left: dooit (AUR), todo list manager.
  • Top right: bottom with customized color themes. Wasted a lot of time to figure out how I could filter out unwanted entries in the senors and disk widget. Came to the conclusion that it’s effectively. Less cluttered than bytop.
  • bottom left: yazi with lots of plugins such as allmytoes as an image prefetcher, using allmytoes (gitlab) and ueberzugpp (AUR)
  • bottom right: spotify-player (AUR) which is quite nice as a spotify client. Initially tried ncspot, which is a bit more leightweight and easy to control from the terminal, even when minimized to a small window. But doesn’t support spotify connect, which this alternative does.

Additionally, I switch from Firefox to the Zen browser (AUR) with build-in AVX2 suport. And I really like it up so far. Under it’s hood it’s still the latest Firefox release. But they’ve implemented UI changes, most prominently vertical tabs, split views and an sidebar which is running a new instance in mobile mode.

They integrated theme mods, which are either available via their own “store”. Theses are based on FF’s old legacy user chrome.css edits. And allow for highly customized UIs. In addition to these mods reviewed by the zen team in the store, you can also live edit your theme, which I’ve played around with. Still a work in progress and will need some fixes… ( the usual rabbit hole I’ld say… :rabbit2: :hole: )

Only have issues to figure out why the Plasma & GTK window decorations are actually not working correctly …

And hey, there are some orphans as well as unmaintained packages.Argh ! ( and yet another rabbit hole :rabbit2: :hole: )

Nice theme man. :slight_smile:
What is the theme and where can I download it?

Which one exactly ? :wink:

Last screenshot. :wink:

The global theme I’m using is Breeze Dark, the color scheme is KVSimplicityDarkLight, included with the Kvantum package. Custom accent color (#f37b3f). And in the color scheme I’ve set all alternative/inactive color (e.g. alternative background ) to the same values as the active ones, (#2d2d2d in this case).

The application & window style (also the GTK style) and the window decorations are all set breeze.

My pleasure. :fist_right: :fist_left:

you do like the vertical tabs? i find its pretty useless as long as it only shows the icons

They’ve included a compact mode, which allows to auto hide the tabbar completely. Or to minimize it to icons only and to show the tabs names on hover, to show names additionally.

As you can see in my screenshot, I heavily make use of container tabs, a dozen is pinned permanently dedicated to specific sites I uses frequently. These won’t change at all. Most of the time, I don’t really need the names for each specific tab.

I only gets annoying when each link will be opened in a new tab.

kitty is love, kitty is life.
Even if my BSPWM experiment fails, some habits can’t be changed anymore, I guess. Here’s example with Xfce:

The Zen Browser has also some tricks up its sleeve.
Such as Split Views for several websites.

But it’s not fully implemented and you’ll have to work out different strategies to adapt for that functionality.

So beware, in case you intend to try it out. They claim it’s currently in an alpha state. Some features are explicitly claimed as experimental and I’ve managed it to cause more harm than useful improvements in the end when you can’t find the disastrous edits to the browser profiles preferences.

Your clouds are broken.
You should make sure that you’ve got an on site backup at least,
in case somethings wrong with your system.
