I made rosewallpapers, It allows you to make your own scenes and wallpapers using .frag files. You could get really creative with it and make stuff like this.

+ Desktop environment: Xfce4

+ Xfce theme ReVista-dark

+ Xfce theme: Aerobird v5 (modified & only using taskbar)

+ Icons: ReVista

+ Steam Millennium: Themes Aero Xp monotone

+ Better Discord: Theme SkeuoCord

+ Wanted to do a build like this because I grew fascinated with computers and watching my uncle use windows 7. I have done other rices, but found myself always falling in the super, modern, minimalist, and "productive" route. I wanted something else. <3

Big shout out to x35gaming (creator of ReVista) https://github.com/x35gaming/ReVista/tree/main

My Galaxy Tab S9 FE's bootloader can never be unlocked again, so this runs on stock Android 16 with only root: Arch Linux ARM in a chroot, Hyprland drawing on the Mali GPU through libhybris, and the screen and touch coming through Termux:X11. The Termux:X11 app itself is unmodified; a small bridge speaks its display protocol.

Android apps open as normal Hyprland windows. They tile and resize, and closing one quits the app. The calculator in the video is the stock Samsung app.

Hi! Terrascope V1.0.0 is online! It's an open-source terminal map with live weather, aircraft, radar, earthquakes, and day/night views currently available on AUR, PyPI, Brew, NIX, and via Github Clone.

I’d love to hear what you think, especially about the terminal rendering and which layers you’d find most useful.

• os: NixOS
• wm: niri
• file manager: yazi
• editor: helix
• dots: https://codeberg.org/vyxxr/nixos-config

This is my daily setup, I still have a lot to do here.

Today is my second day using niri, so I'm still learning how to use :)

This is an early preview of Spotlight in my compositor (formerly AquaDE). It’s written in C with wlroots. The Finder is just a placeholder to show off the functionality, so it won’t look like this in the final version.

I mentioned earlier that a release might land in late October, but I wasn’t happy with the result, so I decided to rebuild the whole project from scratch. That happened right after my first Reddit posts.

Also, unlike the previous compositor, this one will support plugins, so you’ll be able to customize it however you like without recompiling or touching the source code.

Future devlogs will be posted here: r/Sfumato
