Also, I thought Neofetch just always interpreted River as Sway, but I’ve now seen people’s Neofetch screenshots saying River. How do I get Neofetch to tell I’m using River not Sway?

I’m showing you the parts I’m happy with—a lot of programs are not customised! Also, it’s a placeholder wallpaper & neofetch theme, etc

To determine the current WM in Wayland, neofetch first tries getting the process connected to the current Wayland display. If that fails, it checks all running processes against a hardcoded list of known WMs (which includes river).

In practice, it seems to prefer the value of XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP, but idrk, neofetch is magic.

You might’ve seen people use fastfetch, which should just get it right, but is also magic, tho at least c and not bash.

To get neofetch to display river and not sway make sure that you have either lsof or fuser packages installed and it should display river then. See lines 1902-1903 from this link.

Hm, I have lsof installed. Wonder why it’s showing Sway then. Not a big deal, I won’t waste time trying to get it to show

Is that waybar ? I saw the video from Isaac Freund on youtube I really liked the bar that he had on his setup, I wanted to emulate that on my setup.

Yep, waybar. Much better than polybar as you can customise it with css

Could you maybe share the configuration files ? I was trying to emulate the box type of waybar for my river setup. I wanted to know how you got that border outline in that color.

For the border it’s just css. In your style.css:

window#waybar {
  background-color: @background;
  color: @foreground;
  opacity: 1;
  border: 1px solid @accent;
}

(where those are variables representing my waybar colours, you can ofc use literal values instead)
