Hello Mastodon!
If you don't know me, I'm a super easy to use Linux distribution based on Ubuntu and GNOME with a i3 tiling window manager as the default desktop.
With me, you will learn fast how to use more your keyboard (and less your mouse).
I'm a standalone distribution but I can also be installed on you standard Ubuntu through a PPA.
Regolith version 1.5.3 is now publicly available via the release PPA.

Keyboard-centric workflow in #academia, based on @RegolithL, #vim and #tmux. Smoother, and comes with healthier posture :) #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

New year new distro!
@RegolithL is quite smooth and stable, it should be the default Ubuntu distro 👍
The only issue I remember was related to VPNs setup, fixed by raw config file edits.

Hey @RegolithL, just want to say how much I love what you've put together. It's all the features I want with tiling, plus a bunch of thoughtful "just works" things like auto night filter which makes it a delight to use. <3
Will contribute a little $ from our coop to support you

Nice! Although FYI @gnome is doing the heavy lifting of most of the functions unrelated to the window manager, via the excellent gnome-flashback project.

Switching from GNOME to @RegolithL was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Any idea on how GTK themes like Dracula could be contributed to flathub ?
Else, flatpak applications fallback to the default GTK theme
Built on top of Ubuntu, GNOME and i3
