      I think it was started mainly to have a working example of the cool GTK installer they created (Jade), I wonder what is its main selling point as a distro now though

        I wanted to experience Arch and wanted something simple and quick (I was busy those days, so DIY Arch wasn’t a choice). I tried EndeavourOS, but it wasn’t simple: they made many configurations to the system, which ruined the vanilla experience of all the WMs and DEs. I started looking for alternatives, and I found Crystal to be attractive and well-maintained, so I went for it. I think its selling point is being as simple, friendly, and vanilla as possible.

      Of course! This is the original one. I used Photopea for it to meet my mood.

    I love everything I see here. Wallpaper, blur, the bg. How do you like zsh? Been on fish now for a year or so and have been curious of zsh

      I am not really into shells, so my experience is very novice when it comes to shell scripting, but I’ll let you know that I went from bash to zsh, and then I also tried fish but went back to zsh because I felt that it was superior. Generally I find zsh to be little easier than Bash, but bash isn’t bad in itself too. I disliked having to learn new syntax for basic shell scripting for fish the most I think.
