a neat little setup for my old cheap laptop thats fast n mostly as light as possible while being styled :3

This is my first ever attempt at ricing. How did I do? Do you have any suggestions?

after experimenting with dracula, nord, catpuccin, gruvbox, solarized, and many others, i've settled on spacegrey.

Not a lot going on here, just the setup I've been running for a while. I'm planning on trying out Fedora in the next few days, but I always come back to Arch (or have in the past with Ubuntu based distros).

!

It might not look like anything special, but I spent an embarrassing number of hours on this rice, mostly on the non-graphical user interactions. The layout is a custom master-stack implementation, the groupbox widget is an almost complete reimplementation to support a more flexible styling on multihead systems, the Nvidia GPU monitor widget is completely my own, there are popups and context menus out the ass, and there is a persistence module that saves dynamic data (like layouts and group names) between sessions.

Tomorrow I'm moving to Wayland and I might not have the patience to get Qtile running again.

Just found this community and saw nothing had been posted in a while so I figured I'd post my rice as it stands right now and hopefully bring a little more attention to it, since unixporn on Reddit has always been a nice source of inspiration. Definitely a bit rough around the edges and updates have made a few things a little off but anyway.
