Not gonna lie, the fact that I can see all these neofetch images in the comment section has me sold on Lemmy over Reddit.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone here on Steamdeck?
I wasn't aware steamOS used Pacman, i thought it was immutable
You can kinda make it bend a bit to your whim. While it is technically immutable if you don't mess with it, it does have everything necessary for using pacman. It just all reverts next time steamos updates. Anything you install directly through the discover portal is permanent, but it does technically have access to anything in the pacman repos as well.
I unlocked mine long enough to download neofetch and take the screenshot for this. It'll revert back soon, but I only needed it temporarily for imaginary internet points. :)
WindowMaker and Chicago95, what a nice aesthetic you have going!
@jadedctrl @PM_ME_FLUFFY_SHIBES
The retro look :D
Haha, I'm just used to it, been using WindowMaker since 1999 I think (Red Hat Linux 5.2 Apollo was my first distro).

Updated to Bookworm just the other day.
two skinny endeavour installs so far, so don't mind me with my bloat
Damn... Those monitors.
Well here is mine:
Arch, Void, Arch, Gentoo, Arch, Arch,...you're all making me feel like a basic removed.
Super surprised to see the number of void linux here in this platform
There's a lemmy.ml/c/voidlinux community as well.
But yea, I once met a Void user at a party, and it seems like any number above '0' is a surprise.

I'll eat my hat if I see anyone else here using this hehe
well, i at least know its a source based distro
It is! I mainly posted this to spread the word, SourceMage can always use more users :) We've actually been around almost as long as Gentoo!

What are you using to generate that?
It's a terminal program called neofetch. Some of the other screenshots use a similar program called pfetch.
It's called neofetch
You can install it via pretty much any package manager.
neofetch is the programs name
Distrobox ftw
Does this count
all fetches are valid
I'd just be embarrassing myself, I don't have anything nearly as fancy.
the fanciness of your setup doesnt matter, its what you do with it, come on, dont be shy
EDIT: adding my server too
Not at my PC so this is the best I've got
Apologies for the low-quality screen capture.
This is my dualboot install on my old laptop that I used in high school. The trackpad is chipped, and I only use the Windows install for those pesky pieces of invasive proctoring software in use in my college courses. The Mint install, I primarily use for downloading stuff (Persepolis) and data recovery (Because Windows shits itself if you dare plug in a damaged drive).
running on a crappy chromebook. its fantastic!
Work laptop.
