Xenanthropy

A ruby-written window manager would be too cool, I’d check it out! Although unfortunately I’ve switched to Wayland months ago and I know Wayland is a lot harder to write for… ah well :)

Looks awesome, I love Ruby!! For even more ruby you could swap bspwm with subtle, whose config file is written in ruby :) (subtle itself isn’t though sadly)

I don’t, I’m an atheist. I grew up in a very strict christian household (my dad took away my yugioh cards and my Harry Potter books for being “demonic” lmao) kinda turned me off to religion.

Busters hidden treasure is one of the best genesis games!! I’d put it right up there with sonic

I do! I daily drive SourceMage Linux. I found it while I was spelunking distrowatch (along with its brother, lunar linux - they both branched from sorceror back in the day) I ended up having so much fun tinkering with it I ended up writing some spells (packages) for it and ended up getting pulled on as a spell maintainer :) I don’t really have a use-case for it; Before it, I was hopping between arch and void linux. I do really enjoy the freedom I have though with SMGL - it’s a source-based distro, so it’s similar to Gentoo in a sense. Plus I just enjoy having a deeper look into things! I break stuff often and sometimes spells don’t install correctly/have problems but solving those issues just makes it that much more fun :) I do highly recommend it for anyone looking into trying out a source-based distro and Gentoo doesn’t interest them. (we’re #sourcemage on libre.chat IRC, come say hi if you’d like, or if you need help installing, i’ll happily walk anyone through the process!)

I’ll eat my hat if I see anyone else here using this hehe

Obsidians great! I do wish it was open-source though :(

To anyone seeing this - don’t read the comments… I’ve lost brain cells. It’s not even an especially long article and you can tell 99% of the people commenting only read the headline lol

I love cinnamon a lot

I’ve been using Source Mage for about a year now! It’s a source-based distro like Gentoo. It’s magic themed, so instead of repositories we have grimoires, and instead of packages we have spells :) my main reason for using it is because I tried it out a few years ago and the magic themed intrigued me. Eventually I decided to write some of my own spells (some important programs were missing that I wanted) I found them a lot easier to parse than gentoos ebuilds personally. But after I’d been sending PRs for a few months, I got added to the team as an official maintainer!

it’s a really fun distro to use, if not a bit hard to get up-and-running (only tarball-based install, we used to have ISOs but they’re out of date for now) I’ve put a lot of work into getting it how i like it, i enjoy the tinkering aspect of it :) its fun
