Hey there! So after taking your advice this is the result. Ended up going with the following setup, nothing too over the top:

  • OS: Debian 12 - bookworm
  • Color Scheme • Everforest - Good vibes!
  • Icons • Papyrus
  • Terminal • Alacritty
  • Desktop • Gnome
  • Gnome tweaks and extension for shell theme and dock
  • Showoff stuff • cbonsai, catnip (sound visualizer) and ranger (as suggested), still doing the dynamic wallpaper thing but because it’s for KDE Plasma I’ll have to find an alternative or code it myself.

    I built a config for a VM inside of that repo I showed you.

    I have it configured where you create a new machine profile and put it in the system folder (my VM machine profile would get you close) then you configure the home manager aspect. I have two options in that config. One is my normal one and the other is called “slim” which would be better for your case. I even built a TUI that switches to whatever config I want. you’d call: ``./switchTUI from terminal.

    The xmonad thing is a choice of mine but I have commented out parts in the machine config files that could to choose to gnome or plasma if I wanted to.

    I had to sort of fragment the files for my config because I wanted to create a config that would cover every single kind of system in my network.

    I wish Hyprland were configured with Haskell. It’s so pretty.
