  • GTK Theme: DarkCold
  • Icon Theme: Deepsea
  • Qt Theme: Oxygen (to be set up)
  • WM Theme: NanoBlue
  • Fonts: Terminess Nerd Font and a generic sans-serif

  • Browser: Mullvad Browser
  • Terminal: Sakura
  • Shell: mksh (ignore what fastfetch says)
  • Editor: nano

  • Init System: runit
  • Filesystems:
    • / - JFS on LUKS
    • /boot - Ext4

I know this is very similar to the setup on my Raspberry Pi (different account). So shoot me. /s

EDIT: Ignore what Conky says my CPU is. For some reason, this was hard-coded.

Thanks!

I wouldn't recommend JFS, though. The fsck on startup is thorough, but takes forever.

I nearly added that to the list of commendations, but more just for the novelty.

Here, XFS for storage, Ext4 for operating system.

I usually opt for XFS or ZFS, myself; but this particular machine needs something lightweight that'll go easy on the aging hard disk.

My Raspberry Pi is another exception, as I had to install its OS using dd and then partition it, so I have the OS on Ext4 and /home on an encrypted XFS partition.
