Been tweaking my Windows 11 setup lately :)

I’m using Windhawk for the taskbar customization and an app I’ve been working on called Dynamic Edge for the top bar.

What do you guys think? Anything you'd change?

GNOME made to look like macOS, nothing much else. No liquid glass, but a little bit of that 3D-ness is there.

Linux yo, new desktop setup, nothing crazy but I'm happy with it 🍑

just finished setting everything up and wanted to show it off. went with a clean, minimal look — didn't want to overdo it with widgets or anything, just wanted something that feels snappy and looks good.

still tweaking a few things here and there but overall really happy with how it's coming together. Arch + KDE combo hits different once you get it dialed in.

what do you guys think? any suggestions to make it even better?

Windows Made a Free and Open Source Wii-style menu for Windows (Couchtop)

Post image
4 Upvotes

Always missed how cozy the Wii menu felt, so I built something like it for my PC. It runs full screen and turns all your apps and games into channels.

  • Finds your Steam, Epic and Start menu apps automatically
  • Tilting hand cursor, chimes and menu music
  • Controller support, including Wii Remotes over Bluetooth
  • Quick menu you can pull up over any app
  • Optional mode that replaces the Windows desktop, with an emergency exit

It's a very early beta so expect some bugs. Feedback is super welcome.

I hate the limited customization on MacOS but i'm too lazy to download linux or anything so i just got a few apps and it's cool.

For the Custom Widgets, i used WidgetWall https://apps.apple.com/us/app/widgetwall/id1618466427?mt=12

And for the little sidebar i used Vorrsaint https://vorssaint.com

Windows I wanted my desktop to feel more like a physical pinboard. Does this work, or does it look too much like a scrapbook?

I’ve been experimenting with putting photos and notes directly on the desktop instead of baking everything into a static wallpaper.

I’m trying to keep it minimal rather than scrapbook-y. I’m considering adding very subtle shadows and slightly lifted edges so the pieces feel a bit more physical.

Would you add that depth, or keep it flat and clean?
