Actually managed to install CRUX with full disk encryption, using a combination of the CRUX handbook and the Artix installation on another laptop.

Shame the WiFi doesn't work.

It's probably a super boring rice, there are barely any colors or extra elements, but I did it that way on purpose.

Now this is my regular computer setup.

Hardware: Dell PowerEdge r630
OS: Fedora Sway Atomic 43, until recently called Fedora Sericea
WM: Sway
Theme: Derived from one I saw on Reddit a good while ago
Terminal: foot
Editor: micro
Music player: rmpc with mpd

I just upgraded the GPU from an Nvidia GTX 1070. It worked perfectly, even with Sway, but with Nvidia discontinuing driver support I wanted something with open source drivers, more recent and with 16 GB VRAM before prices went even crazier

I got a new laptop with active cooling and a dGPU, so I needed to remake my dev environment.

I'm using Sway, my file manager is Yazi, I have jellyfin-tui for music, lunarvim for development and text editing.

This time, I uploaded my dotfiles to my git repo here so hopefully config will be faster in the future.

I hope this screenshot isn't too 'cluttered', I just wanted to show off the environment. Open to suggestions for further customization.

Edit: I'm now enlightened and use mpv, I really like the ModernZ OSC (on-screen controls), and uses config files.

IINA is only on macOS. I looked up linux alternatives but none of them seem to have similar looking UIs, at least out of the box. I want the player UI to float on top of the video + with a blurred background, it as shown in the image; or at least the ability to theme it like so.

I got good recommendations for desktop shells on my other posts. I looked at Noctalia and DankMaterialShell, they both are built on top of QuickShell. QuckShell is a framework for writing widgets in QML, it wasn't made until 2024. both Noctalia and DMS were made during the summer (all these dates looking at Github). They basically became popular over night.

I was looking at ricing during the spring and didn't find anything as developed or popular. I had a bunch of tabs open for AGS & Astal, but didn't find complete shells built on them. It seems like I would've had to start from scratch if I wanted an exact rice, but now I can edit pre-made QMLs instead.

This actually seems like the best time for linux ricing yet.

A dock & system tray as one bar like KDE & Windows. So far most rices I've seen have docks and system trays separate, or even don't have a dock at all. I'm wondering if there any projects that already implemented this, before I would look at doing it myself with something like AGS or ewww. I'm on Hyprland.

It's very clear that the ricing community wants to set any given colorscheme in many apps automatically, most tools do so either with wallpapers (which is inherently opinionated), or the base16 spec. The original base16 repo hasn't been updated in over 2 years, and 16 colors simply isn't enough to make rich granular themes, especially when code has many different syntax elements. We need a successor that allows for more colors on both TUIs and GUIs, more than 16 colors (like 24 or even 32), mapped more granularly.

My story:

I've spent lots of time looking at how to have good colorschemes in apps that change dynamically, to make my desktop pretty and with variety. Many tools can apply colorschemes to apps using image / wallpaper colors like Matugen and Pywal. These tools are very well made, but I realized I actually prefer rainbow colorschemes like Catppuccin. Either way I got attached Matugen, fortunately it can be used without wallpapers and supports custom keywords, there are also base16 colorscheme managers like flavours and tinty.

But Cattppuccin's base16 theme didn't look right compared to its Neovim plugin. The plugin is very well integrated and colors a lot things for you that base16 plugins may not, I would have to set certain UI colors myself if I wanted them to match. Some of the major colors (variables, keywords, brackets, etc.) were shuffled around, so out of the box Catppuccin's base16 theme doesn't even match Cattppuccin's original vision / color harmony. All of this probably applies to other colorschemes as well. So if I want to switch between different schemes while staying true to each one, I would need to set up plugins for each app rather than automatically.
