This looks amazing, and I’m intrigued!
I’m a long-time headless Linux user but am now in the process of migrating away from Windows to Linux as my daily driver. So far I’ve used PopOS, Ubuntu and Mint to give them all a try. What I don’t understand at this time is how to replicate what you’ve got here. Looking at your linked repo I’m assuming that’s your way of sharing all of the configs that drive this look.
Can I take Ubuntu, for instance, and install the necessary applications and then apply your configs to get close to what you have here, or is there something more specific I need to do to accomplish it?
as @UsernameNotFound404 mentioned I'm using Niri WM which I cannot recommend to new Linux users. If you are coming from Windows I can recommend some distro that uses KDE desktop environment or Cinnamon Desktop (Linux Mint, really newcomer friendly). Once you get comfortable with Linux you can install Niri or any other window manager to play around and learn stuff.
Linux Mint CacheyOS
Thanks for the advice! I’ve always wanted a very minimalistic almost terminal-like UX and am excited to learn some more with the help of Niri.
