Already posted in the Linux thread, might as well post here too :3

EndeavourOS, i3wm. I borrowed the polybar config, but I wrote basically everything else myself.

Also made a lil thing for animated wallpapers for when I'm in the mood for them.

One of these days I’d like to try i3wm. Hanging around on Gnome because it does what I need.

It's pretty good, you just gotta set it up the way you like, it just takes a while to do so. Though I suppose that's true for anything.

What I think turns a lot of people off from it is the fact that it's kinda ugly when you first launch it (and it's a little unintuitive if you havent been around the wm block before). I have my full config hosted in a private github repo, I wouldnt mind making it public in a day or so to share if you'd like some reference from it.

i3wm? why not KDE, or Xcfe?

I just prefer WMs by themselves since I'm more keyboard-centric, and also like window tiling. They're also more hackable (easier customizable) imo. Dont get me wrong, KDE and XFCE are great- just not exactly for me, especially considering some of my machines arent exactly rocking in the hardware department. Just makes it easier to run, ya know?

macOS is honestly awesome.
As a Linux user for a hot minute, I’ve been enjoying it. It does have some Apple problems and annoyances but it’s at least not shoving ads into my OS and other nonsense of Windows

I've been mostly a Windows user throughout my entire life - before swiftly moving onto Linux because of how increasingly bloated Windows is, and the fact that there are so many unpatched vulnerabilities.

    @Xdqwerty, People who create revival services for the Wii end up in disaster, same goes for Pretendo lol.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
