August 2018   Purple // i3

Though it definitely dates farther back, the earliest evidence of me using Linux can be found in the i3 config file which states at the top, "File created 2017-03-05".

December 2018   Dark // i3

Apparently, fun colours were banned! Using my favourite font to date: curie

June 2020   Base 16 // DWM

Switched to DWM because you have the config is code and that's what cool people do.

August 2021   Mojave // GNOME

Switched to a laptop and I couldn't be bothered to figure out how to add dynamic screen behaviour in DWM. Switched to GNOME :( At least GNOME supports fun timed wallpapers though! Also the transparent terminal is very distracting not sure how I dealt with that. Still using the st terminal emulator with curie.

January 2023   Ubuntu Jellyfish // GNOME

Ubuntu Jellyfish. No more transparent terminal but also no more curie or st :(

October 2025   Plants // Cinnamon

Got fed up GNOME. Cinnamon is the default desktop environment of Linux Mint, the first Linux distribution I ever used.

February 2026   Cheese Plants // Cinnamon

Cheese plants :) Switched to light mode terminal theme c. 2024 as I am now an adult that works in well lit environments.
