Almost finished setting up my new OS, it’s gonna be my main (dual booting with Windows on separate disk). Tokyo Night theme for GTK, xfce terminal, btop and vim. Papirus Dark icons.

    You literally created a new Stockphoto for the news if they talk about “hacking”(that looks cool as hell).

      It is indeed, I tried to go straight WM (i3) but I’m not used to it so I installed xfce which I’m familiar with (I’m also using it on my server running Lubuntu).

    Tokyo night theme looks very similar to Atom’s One Dark theme. Is there a connection between these two?

    How is EndeavourOS? My main desktop is running Ubuntu (I stuck with it as I’m quite familiar with the debian package managers), but I have a laptop I’m looking to fart around in once my Pi arrives and I can move PiHole to it.

    I was thinking Arch, but I’m open to giving EOS a try.

    My recommendation would be to have Linux on the 500gb drive and then install windows directly on the other drive without partitioning. I wouldn’t install Linux on a partition as Windows likes to mess with the bootloader but if Linux is on it’s own drive you can always boot it from EFI without issues.

    This looks beautiful. Been tempted to set up a dual boot myself with Windows 11. How was it to get everything working?

      Easy actually. I’m on arch (Hyprland) right now, so no longer EOS but it’s been refreshing. I’d recommend EOS as a base for any arch install, better than “arch installer” by a long shot. If you have dedicated storage I’d recommend using it and booting to the respective system through EFI rather than relying on software bootloader (windows likes to break it). I am running arch on a dedicated SSD and it’s been smooth so far.

        That would be my plan, I have windows on its own 500gb drive and 2 1tb drives for gaming. My plan would be partition on the gaming drives as they just house the game files.

        How much would you recommend allocating to EOS? I’m very much green around the ears when it comes to Linux, I’ve dabbled and have a home server running Manjaro and fumbled my way through that somehow!

        If all goes well I’d like to daily drive it and only use Windows for games I can’t get running on EOS
