Nope, I'm a Windows Adult. This is not bait. Surely there's an example of Linux being AT LEAST as good looking as macOS sierra. Or maybe you don't have such example and you're just shitposting because you know Linux is the ugliest OS.

>>57606646
Linux isn't a OS you autist.

>Why the fuck would I waste my time switching to butt-ugly Linux when we have Windows 10 and macOS?

And what about Gentoo? I think that this is the best distribution to run on a 64-bit processor. Perhaps the test needs to be reworded to "without any manual recompiling" and then redone. Compiling all your software yourself, optimized for your processor, gives you a great speed boost. I think this is one major advantage where Linux excels in comparison to Windows.

'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Do window shadows appear over other windows or can you occlude them? Cute desktop btw

>>57610588
Currently they appear over other windows. I'd like for them to be occluded, I'm just not sure the best way to go about it. Maybe a secondary stuck-on-bottom shadow window that follows around every normal window?

>>57610618
are you a wizard?

>>57610624
I mean I wasn't the last time I checked.

>>57610618
If there's a way to have them always pinned last in z-order that might work, but IDK if openbox allows that

don't judge linux by darkfag screenfetches on 4chan

you can literally make it look exactly like Windows

any self respecting Wincuck should know that pretty desktops are for macfags anyways

>>57610633
by them I mean any individual component

>>57606402
You can change the desktop enviroment you know

>>57610633
Yeah, should be fine. Openbox allows windows to be "Normal", "Always on Top", or "Always on Bottom". Even if it didn't I could always set the window type to desktop or whatever it is that conky does.

Because function is a hell of a lot more important than a pretty walled garden. Windows 10 is nauseating and Mac OS is more restrictive in customization than Windows.

Combined title and menu bar is a neat trick. Also your window buttons aren't spaced so far apart that they end up looking like pic related which is nice to see. Seriously so many desktops out there just change the window buttons and go "THERE IS RICE NOW" but it ends up looking awful because there's like 300px of nothing but whitespace between each button and I'm just sitting here wondering how anyone can possibly think it looks good so thank you for not being one of those people.

LOL aren't you that stupid newfag who couldn't set up KDE connect and NFS via dolphin?

I rarely say this but I think Linux is not for you, go back to windows.

The problem with your mentality OP is that you define what looks good and what looks trash based on imposed values, rather than having your own.
Imposed values are design forced by an external party, which you can only accept if you lack your own personality and are a cuck (and this time i'm actually not using this term ironically).
Your own values however are values that come purely from your own mind and person, meaning that you use a design according to your own taste while shunning external opinion or input as irrelevant.

If you don't have a personality OP, then use an OS which imposes their own.
If you have your own personality OP, then personalize your own UI.
This game you are playing only makes yourself look retarded.
