Is your image supposed to use this much dithering? I supposed it can be considered an art style not just a crutch to low color resolution.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately yeah, it looks fine on the monitor, so I don't pay much mind to it, but it's really bad if you look too close.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Between the eyes and the dithering, were you inspired by 16-Bit Sensation?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Idk if the person who made it was or not, I just found it on a random GitHub repo

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's cool. Looking again, the character in the image is Konoha, the main character in the anime. The dithering is an homage to one of the episodes.

I've been tinkering with Hyprland myself this week. Your layout looks pretty nice.

I'm trying new distros out. I've been using Zorin (basically Ubuntu) for a long time now and getting tired of it.

I tried NixOS woth Hyprland, but I just could plugins to work on the NixOS' default Hyprland install, and installing things I needed to compile it on NixOS was way too hard, so I gave up.

Tried GoboLinux (very unknown, but very cool) with awesome wm, but nothing fucking worked. The bootloader didn't work, after that it's package manager didn't work, after that the touchpad tap didn't work.

I'll try Manjaro now. It would be cool to get Hyprland to work still.

Do tell us how it goes!!! I thought endeavouros was better than Manjaro, but I absolutely encourage you to explore your options :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, I didn't know that one, it looks interesting. I was quite hyped with GoboLinux because it tried to mitigate the things that annoy me the most in linux, that's how complex is the installing (and uninstalling, mainly) of programs. I mean, you always have the distros' package managers (apt, pacman, aur, yum, ...), compiling by hand and moving or linking to system folders, downloading a binary, flatpak, snap, brew, appimage. When I get to uninstall a program for some reason, I never know how to do it, because I never remember how I installed it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

EndeavourOS (which is very close to vanilla Arch, in a good way) comes with yay, which makes installing software super easy. You can search for and install a program by just typing "yay " and selecting what you want to download. Note that this also works for anything in the AUR, which includes lots of stuff that you'd usually have to manually compile.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

+1 on Endeavour instead of Manjaro. EOS is better in every respect plus it's much closer to vanilla Arch.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

definitely experiment with other window managers, I've found river to suit my needs way more than hyprland after doing minimum configuration.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh I absolutely plan on it. One of the reasons I love Linux so much is the amount of options you have, I wanna explore all of em!
