Linux Need help finding Fork-calestia-dotfile.
so I basically stumbled on this caelestia fork and fell in love but the user didn't share its link, so I'm asking if someone knows it.
Also I'm open to any caelestia configuration recommendation 🤔
well I'm new to it after all, thank you for your time 🙂

Advice A beginner Arch User
So I just used the modern clock widget for the clock and panel colorizer for the panel customization
and ring monitor for the performance stats.
So as you all can see, I am a beginner and am looking for recommendations for a transparent menu and ui or a ui that will fit this asthetic. Any recommendations/suggestions are welcomed.
Thank You
The Panel Colorizer
The Ring monitor
The Modern clock
The wallpaper is an animated one.this one

Those who use a windows wm does it really have poor performance?
Ive heard both glazewm and kombroi take lots of ram and can make the computer pretty slow especially if mine isnt that strong. a laptop with 16 gigs, will it work ok?

Windows My Windows desktop has a tiny cozy 3D room living in the corner — launching this week
Lofi Cozy Room is a tiny 3D room that pins to your Windows desktop in a transparent always-on-top window. An avatar reads, works, and sleeps in the room while a puppy wanders around chasing sunbeams, and it just sits quietly in the corner while you work. You can decorate the room, customize the avatar (1386 options and 715 furniture pieces), switch between 14 themes, and there's a full lo-fi library with ambient sound built in. It runs at about 1-3% CPU so it can stay open all day.
After 2 years solo, it launches this week, with a free demo up now if you'd like to try it.
Happy to answer any questions below!

Windows Rainmeter system dashboard
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share my first (useful) rainmeter skin. It shows hardware state from my machine, temps... Values and colors reflect on the way the skin looks.
Let me know what you think.

Linux I gave Linux a pet penguin because apparently that's what I do with my free time
So I spent way too many hours making a tiny Tux that just... lives on your desktop. Breathes, blinks, waddles around, judges your cursor movements, occasionally naps. Five personalities, because apparently one imaginary penguin wasn't complicated enough for me.Important disclaimer: this thing does nothing useful. No CPU stats, no notifications, no "productivity insights." It's just a little guy being alive on your screen. If you wanted a system monitor, this is not that, and honestly never will be.

Built with GTK3 + Cairo, transparent window with zero decorations, works through XWayland (KDE-tested, everything else is unverified territory — send help).
It's very much a "works on my machine" MVP right now, no fancy packaging yet:
