🗾 History

Ngl this is started when im feel bored lol and decided to start using Linux, more precisely in January 2022. When it's in Linuxer Desktop Art i saw a linux setup that caught my eye, then I'm interested in and trying something similar, So yeaaaaaah this is my current setup, I made this with all Aesthetic I have. Yes! you're right! everything you see here is all about beautiful and aesthetic, and ofc apart from targeting the beautiful UI I also pay attention to the functionality, because I'm targeting an OS that's comfortable to wear and look at. Have a Nice Day! <3

I wanna say thank you to those of you who like and love my setup <3
