  • Distribution: QubesOS 4.3
  • Desktop Environment: Xfce
  • Theme: Redmond97-SE
  • Window Manager: Xmonad
  • Terminal: xterm + tmux
  • Launcher: Rofi^1^
  • Bar: xfce4-panel

Windows

Top-left to bottom right:

  1. neovim "IDE" with integrated terminal editing dotfiles (Debian)
  2. dom0 admin terminal (Fedora)
  3. Qubes Manager looking at some templates (Fedora)
  4. Thunar File manager about to move a file between qubes (Whonix)
  5. Konform Browser browsing codeberg (Arch Linux)

Each app and window can belong to a separate qube (Xen VM), visually discriminated by differing color schemes.

Thanks to Ben Grandes qusal which was very helpful as base for setting things up.

This is a setup optimized for productivity and efficiency, which is reflected in the lack of eye-candy and gratuitous margins.

^1^: Not pictured - I figured the screenshot was busy enough. If y'all want to see more LMK.

I love X11 and I love your passion for it! You're right, and the benefit of Linux is that we all get to be a little picky about the bits that make up our OS.
