UNIX-LIKE OPERATING SYSTEMS

21 SEPTEMBER 2025

+

The year 2020 transformed my personal computing experience. In March 2020, I +stumbled upon Arch Linux and discovered that I could customize my desktop +environment to look and work any way I liked. I exercised that newfound freedom +to create a Matrix-themed setup:

+ +

Arch Linux

+ +

The system employs the X display server and the i3 window manager. The terminal +emulator used is Urxvt. The translucent effect is achieved with the help of the +Xcompmgr compositor. This sort of setup was popular among minimalist Linux +users.

+ +

In February 2024, I switched to an OpenBSD system with Xenocara (the OpenBSD +build of X display server) as the display server and i3 as the window manager:

+ +

OpenBSD i3

+ +

Unlike Linux, OpenBSD includes a coherent desktop environment out of the box. +Except for the window manager, for which I prefer a tiling one, I’m now using +the default OpenBSD setup. For the window manager, I use dwm from the Suckless +team.
