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.

I've been "paying" for @Mastodon since about 3 years now ($20 each month), and I've started paying an equal share for @regolith since last month.

I believe in free software, in open source and in solidarity over charity, however, the people giving you these choices and the ability to abstain from services run by for-profit, commercial, capitalistic conglomerates need to make a living too ..

Give it a thought and use your privilege to contribute as well, if you can afford it 👍

I uploaded my first project to source hut! It's called relogen and it generates themes for @regolith by setting a random wallpaper from a folder and sampling it's colors using pywal.
Check it out here:

Installed regolith Linux today. It has been a wonderful experience. I have always wanted to try i3 but it had a learning curve but regolith has made it super easy. Thank you so much @RegolithL

I spent way too much time on desktop vanities today, but it was just too compelling.
Here is my very first bash script in action. It generates @regolith themes from the wallpaper using pywal. #theWorkshop

for the past 5 years I've been using i3 as my tiling window managers of choice for my linux distros.
recently I discovered something really cool on top of i3wm: a complete distro, Regolith Linux, and I'm in love with it.

A very interesting piece by @lawzava that rates desktop OSs from the perspective of a professional that uses a computer to get work done but is not overly technical. It's written and structured very well, check it out!

I realize that @regolith is hitting perfectly the sweet spot for older geeks who spent nights customizing their desktop while younger but are now with different priorities (family, job, sleeping).

You can still have the geek factor, the tiled windows, the ricing, the shortcuts, the config with @regolithOnStage, all of that with a very easy and and flat learning curve.

If you sometimes regret your previous geek life, give Regolith a try ;-)

Nice article, not because of the points but because it illustrates well what choices the Linux desktop is offering:
