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.

Ricing Linux (lemmy.world)

I've been using linux for about 6 months now and recently been using arch as my main. I've done some customzations like changing fonts, background, keybinds, etc. But I really want to actually customize like the behaviour of apps, cool animations.

Are there any links, videos, post or anything that is beginner friendly of ricing Linux?

Edit: I use Gnome for now

I believe in hybrid models. Sometimes tiling is really nice, but what I really want is a better and customizable snap window management.

KDE has your back. You .mostly use regular windows but with meta+T you can configure tiles that can be used to snap windows to them using shift when dragging a window

Might have to try that out. Since installing Linux I've mostly run Gnome and I like it a lot so far.

I've only started out with Linux a few weeks ago and I liked gnome for the few weeks I've used it, but I'm liking KDE much more than gnome so far.

Oh I love that manual titling thingy. I wish I could save my window setups tho. Also an automatic tile option too.
