This is for serious people to show their serious desktops that they use for serious work. Not a contest to see how many elements you can remove (i.e. how impractical you can make things) and how risque your pedo loli anime wallpapers can get without technically showing genitalia.

basically anything if it's practicality- and work- focused

If you do real work, you use Linux. The other operating systems can't compete, it's not even close.
What serious work do you use this computer for? Learning Japanese is cool but a side quest. You can't put food on the table or buy a house or raise your children using Japanese.
Watching anime can be fun too, on the side, whenever you have a bit of free time, e.g. on a lazy Sunday. To relax and laugh and veg out. You really shouldn't have anime on the mind 24/7 though, user. At least you're still using Windows and haven't gone down the black hole of Linux/privacy shit that leads nowhere but to despair (protip: if da gubbamint wants to watch you, they will. nothing you do can significantly stop them).
Not Ubuntu, but still nice. Practical and work-focused. This is a Linux setup I can get behind.
I'm thinking of bringing back desktop icons to my setup. ATM I'm simply pressing the Win key and then typing in the name of the handful of documents I'm working on. But am I being minimalist for minimalism's sake? Am I not fully practicing what I preach? Maybe I should try using desktop shortcuts again for a month, see how I feel...
I have colour and joy and excitement in other areas of my life. Ricing your desktop or homescreen can't bring you real happiness. Computers are tools. Tools you use to accomplish stuff that brings you joy in the areas it really matters. Tools don't need to be pretty. They should be practical though.
What can you do on Linux that you can't do on Windows or Mac?
Absolutely pathetic.
>Not Ubuntu, but still nice. Practical and work-focused. This is a Linux setup I can get behind.
It's a distro called Q4OS. They basically take Debian, add the non-free firmware by default so that most hardware works out of the box, and then to top it all off they configure it with a nicely themed TDE desktop. The only things I changed are the task bar size, clock, wallpaper, and the terminal background color to match better with my text editor's color scheme. I use desktop icons because I'm lazy and I don't feel like searching for stuff all the time. It's easier to use a keyboard shortcut to minimize all windows and just click stuff on the desktop.
>What can you do on Linux that you can't do on Windows or Mac?
Well, it's not called a "server OS" for nothing. Even the people who deride it have to admit that it's extremely stable and secure with lots of customization options. You can also run a full desktop environment in less than 1GB of RAM, which is something that Windows users haven't experience since 7, and that Mac users haven't experienced since like 2005. Linux has some really great hardware support. I know that the lack of drivers is a meme here but Linux has gotten better than Windows 10. Every piece of hardware I own works flawlessly in Linux now, which is pretty impressive. Mac OS is even worse with drivers. If you buy a Mac you pay thousands for outdated and limited hardware. If you hackintosh you have to basically build your machine around Mac OS's limitations.
Linux is better in almost every way if you aren't playing video games or using CAD software. Even if you are a gamer you can just buy a console. They're just as good these days and have all the best games on them from what I've heard.
Finally!
share customization
