Maybe you're using Nobara in Fedora in Arch! :grin:
There is no option for Nobara in the list of distros, and so the closest thing is Fedora, since it's based on that.
As for the logo, I was using Arch at the time of uploading it.
And it's still one of my favorites. Nothing wrong in trying new stuff.

But regardless of what distors I use and what logos I have as my avatar, what's it to you ? Why do you feel the need to take a piss ?
Have I offended you in any way ?
I thought Cyril's comment was just poking gentle fun. Can't speak for them, of course, but I'd be disappointed if Cyril were truly taking the piss.

I mean, you gotta admit, it is pretty funny to have one distro listed in your profile, use another distro's icon as your avatar, then post that you're loving a third distro in the screenshot thread!!

Edit to add - absolutely beautiful desktop, btw.
Of course I was just joking! Damn even with the emojis, it wasn't obvious?
More serious than this guy I think you die lol.

I use a rather boring, plain jane window manager, icewm. I liked it back in 1999/2000 when I was playing with different ones and I used it for some time. So it was a blast from the past, when I heard there was a new release, version 3.x.

The reason I like it for my gaming setup is because it has fine grained focus settings and behaviour that makes focus problems in games a thing of the past.

Boring UI, but note the quaint Netscape icon in my quick launch area. I was going through their icons and they still had the same ones from decades ago! I couldn't resist using the N for my Firefox browser :-)

Anyway, I'm more showing my awesome Geralt screenshot (Witcher 3). I was finishing up a mission when I noticed the lighting and shadow. I spun my view around to show my character and took a shot. It was early in game, so that was still the default armour etc. Unfortunately, on close look, there are some transitions because of foliage blowing in the wind but it's a minor defect.

This is just the original Witcher 3 ("Classic" now) and it's still like having a million beautiful paintings with every footstep. I really love traversal in this game and I do most of it on foot.

Clear Linux and i3wm has by far the best performance of any Linux distro on AMD and Intel graphics.

The distro needs to be added to choose from your hardware info.

Over the last 24 hours, I've switched my fleet over to Mint Xfce! :grin: Here's how it's looking on my workhorse right now. The current background is Steam Trading Card art from [Horizon Chase Turbo](https://store.steampowered.com/app/389140/Horizon_Chase_Turbo/).

Thanks very much! :grin: It's not too dissimilar to my old Xubuntu setup, but the fresh coat of paint is nice, and due to its day-to-day desktop-user focus, Mint is considerably more polished for that use-case than Xubuntu is. I'm really liking it so far.

I think it comes from [here](https://twitter.com/Bomberman_EN/status/1557464627713216512), though these are less saturated .

I can indeed - here it is, in 1920x1080 and 1280x800 sizes (these were the only sizes I needed, so were all that I took care of);

I snapshotted mine myself, from the [official Amazing Bomberman website](https://www.konami.com/games/bomberman/amg/eu/en/) - that's why mine has no logos. :smile: I didn't know of the ones that were posted to Twitter at the time!

I particularly like the dreamy feel of it, and the colour-scheme fits right in with the default look of the Steam Deck's desktop-mode. It's only a shame that Amazing Bomberman itself (a Bomberman/music-game hybrid) is currently Apple Arcade exclusive, though I wouldn't be at all surprised to see it added to Super Bomberman R 2 as part of a big update somewhere along the line, since they added substantial new content to the first Super Bomberman R, back in the day, as well.

My brother's girlfriend got her computer upgraded and I ended up with her old parts downstream. So technically a whole new computer with just my old drives moved over.
