Desktop Thread

for a casual end user interested in minimalism, how does bsd compare to linux?

more like cya later edition *skurt

Fuck year, KDE.

I'm just gonna give you the rundown on the differences from linux i've seen with bsd

It's not very minimal with it's kernel, it comes with working audio, automatically connects to wifi and has working brightness keys all without configuration.

doas > sudo, only requires one line to set it up

All the user installed stuff goes into /usr/local (even the /home is in /usr/home)
which is nice because you can tell what you installed and what was in the system originally.

pkg is a great package manager, has most stuff I want, if it's not in pkg it's probably in portage (compiles stuff from source)

X -configure always detects wrong drivers

Touchpad scrolling, at least on this thinkpad, is terrible compared to linux

Nobody seems to be able to correctly estimate my memory usage (As you can see in my screenshot w/ neofetch & htop)

But you wanna know why I chose BSD? cause I think the logo looks cool.

thanks. i appreciate the honesty.

do I install arch?

Don't ask for opinions, just fucking do what you want. Its all the same, distro politics dont matter

It's been a while boys.

>Its all the same, distro politics dont matter
no, not really.
>best mainstream support: ubuntu
>most professional: fedora
>most reliable: debian stable
>most adventurous: arch
>most configurable: gentoo
and so on.

glad to see another freebsd user

the biggest advantage for a desktop user is that it has an audio system that actually works and is not over-engineered like alsa
if you use freebsd and zfs then you will never worry about data loss and can back up the system easily even while running

do you use zfs? htop does not seems to calculate wired memory as being used, which is being used by zfs as arc cache

Yes I use zfs, don't know what it is but heard it was a good meme to use

LFS is arguably the most configurable.

Writing your own programs from scratch off the bare kernel is

LFS is a special case.

What server, though?

Pls teach me how to achieve this

>Pls
achieve what? changing wallpaper and background color? It's extremely easy to do, but for you, Achmed, it is impossible.

Post wallpaper

What browser, CSS, shell are you using?

#FFFFFF

what does it matter? the programs in the screenshot has no visible UI, so it can be any browser or terminal. Same goes for the shell.

Wallpaper?

Ryzen 7/1700 has an overclock, 3.7GHz.
RAM is 2133, now at 2400.

This is probably some crappy browser like Epiphany and a GTK theme.

The most tedious task is to build a theme, which is basically CSS, which you could get out of SASS or whatever you prefer.

Nothing special. Just tedious work. Some people like it, some don't. For me personally Solarized Dark is good enough, while I am incapable to create such a color palette.

xp looked way better than 7 ever did

Come on, fucko, creating a GTK them is nothing special - tedious and boring task. You are grossly overestimating your level of snowflakery

go home Achmed, you're drunk.

are they fucking serious

First rice, should I get rid of the bottom bar or nah?

Attached: 2019-01-13-224403_1366x768_scrot.png (1366x768, 1.23M)

depends if you need these infos or not
in any case I'd make it autohide because your screen is tiny

you should get rid of one, either top or the bottom one, but since you ask about the bottom one, yeah, get rid of it.

They claim it runs a bit faster. Has a proper application launcher as opposed to gnomes fullscreens bullshit. I like how easily customizable the taskbar is as well.
I hope they keep working on it.
