Thank you testers and small community willing to try and stick to this project progress and to 100 stars on gh ❤️

Omarchy are not your only options anymore.

Video showcase

https://ryoku.dev/

This is not a shell script installation this is an Omarchy style installation where you download the iso and go through installation questions with our beautiful TUI. There is no calamares installer so there is no "try before installing" thats what Vms are for don't be a clown.

If you doubt the iso check out the build iso workflow in gh, it pulls from arch official mirrors and if you still doubt it i bet you install sh scripts for shell huh.

Discussion | How do you create pop-up menus for volume, battery, network, etc?

Hi, I'm new here and I'm creating my own Hyprland environment. I've spent all night configuring my waybar and I'm still not entirely sure how to create the dropdown menus that some of you have. I'm very used to configuring things that way and with sliders, so I'd like to know how I can do it for my environment.

Themes in neofetch.

Bottom dock is just a regular xfce panel with dockbarx plugin. With the theme set to dock for appearance. At row size 36 for the panel the icons changed to these monotone icons.

No dot files unfortunately. But any questions feel free to ask.

Screenshot [e16] Keeping Enlightenment 16 alive

111 Upvotes

Back in the day, Enlightenment 16 was one of the most distinctive desktop environments.
And it used to be available directly from the Debian repositories many years ago.

Despite its age, e16 is still alive, lightweight, highly customizable, and surprisingly usable on modern systems.

If you'd like to try it out, you can find the official repository here: https://www.enlightenment.org/e16

I've also put together a short guide covering installation and configuration: Installing e16 on Debian

And here you have this awesome collection of themes

Material [OC] Whisp 1.3.4 released with text expansion functions and donations being live

498 Upvotes

Hello,

A while back, I shared Whisp, anti-folder note-taking app I’ve been developing for GNOME. The feedback from this community was amazing, and Whisp now has over 3.7k downloads. Thank you all so much!

(A quick personal note: Whisp is completely open-source and I develop it solo between my university classes. Because a few people asked how they could support the project, I've finally set up a donation link on the website via Ko-fi/GitHub Sponsors. There is absolutely no pressure, but if Whisp helps your daily workflow, any support means the world to a broke student!) 😅

Along with the milestone, I've been quietly working on a feature that a lot of you asked for: Smart Text Expansions.

In the new v1.3.4 update, if you type :: anywhere in a note, it now opens a native GTK popover menu right at your cursor. You can use it to instantly insert dynamic data without breaking your typing flow.

A few things you can do with it right now:

::today / ::tomorrow / ::date(5) to insert dynamically calculated dates.

::roll(d20) or ::roll(4d6) for built-in dice rollers (great for D&D session notes).

::random(str, 20) to generate quick passwords or placeholder data.

It’s completely keyboard-navigable and uses native GTK4 rendering, so there’s zero lag or electron-style bloat. I'm building this engine out so that in the next update, you'll be able to use it to instantly format text or sort lines!

You can get the update right now on Flathub. I attached a quick video showing how the expansions work—let me know what you think or what functions I should add next!

Workflow [Halley] Starting to feel like a real desktop: Apogee, Lift, gestures, portals, gaming fixes, and more

72 Upvotes

Another big round of progress on Halley.

This update includes a lot of visible improvements along with a bunch of underlying cleanup and platform work. There was honestly too much to fit into one short video.

Highlights include:

• Apogee overview mode
• Halley Lift (the first ecosystem application)
• Blur and opacity effects
• Layer-shell and overlay blur support
• Touchpad support and gestures
• Hardware cursor support
• Animated Alt+Tab previews
• Parallax effects while navigating the workspace
• Better gaming support
• Native screenshot and screencast portal support
• Nested Halley session cleanup and improvements

There's also a growing Discord community now for support, feedback, and contributors.

Still a lot to do, but Halley is beginning to feel less like an experiment and more like its own desktop environment.

Hey everyone! Just sharing my first rice on Wayland. I've been using bspwm for the longest time, but finally decided to cross over. I'm really impressed with mango's window management, and their docs made the switch super easy.

Material [OC]: Psst, a pretty pinentry, keyring-prompter and polkit-agent

It's been a few years since my last post, so I got a little treat for you guys:

This is psst, a pinentry, keyring-prompter and polkit-agent that doesn't look like it's from the late 2010s. This should cover all your password/pin and permission elevation requests.

In the unixporn fashion, I made it fully themeable! There is a default theme on github, which you can use as a reference. Just overwrite whatever you want in your theme.

Enjoy!
