Arch Linux

Sway. I look around every few months but nothing usually, um, erm pendulates my interest. I have hyprland installed...but my config file breaks with every update, and it's rice first, function later. I'm an opposite-ricer. I like to strip all decorations.

I'm using xfce. It's on endeavros as I like to belong to the arch crowd without working with the lengthly set up from scratch.

I prefer xfce as anything of note is accessible with a few minor exceptions due to endeavros security concerns such as Bluetooth which requires a quick systemctl command.

I started off with it after discovering ubuntu and trying the xfce version. I liked it and went through a few distros including crunchbang with openbox but ultimately xfce is a very straightforward experience for me and fairly customisable. The only drawback is it doesn't look like some of the awesome screenshots I've seen of i3 or other tiling managers but as a teacher I don't do development or have that much knowledge to tinker so xfce is my go-to.

I just jumped up on the Hyprland band wagon (4 weeks ago). Very pleased with it so far!

I enjoy gnome with the arcMenu extension https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/3628/arcmenu/ I will include usually some other extensions, but arcMenu is what makes the experience a lot better than the stock one for me.

I'm not an Arch user (I stayed in Fedora because convenience at the time), but I use Qtile these days. I have my own little scripts for making the colorscheme the same as the wal colorscheme.
