Despite the fact that I enjoy seeing how other people configure their desktops, I have never posted mine here before. I intend to rectify that now. It doesn't change very much from month to month (other than the wallpaper) because I basically have it configured exactly how I want it.

GTK+ Theme: TaditionalOK (MATE's GTK3 variant of Clearlooks)

Window Border Color: #EDECEB

Input Box Color: #FFFFFF

Selected Item Color: #9A9A9A

Tooltips Color: #F5F5B5

Icon Theme: MATE-Faenza

Wallpaper: http://www.wallpapersbox.eu/data/media/867/Shore Waves Wallpaper 2560X1600.jpg

Wallpaper found on Google

Im actually testing out Debian 7 and thinking of switching over from Arch purely because my power user setup disagrees with my better half who has now started using the desktop more often :p. Really need to work out if Steam will play nicely with my current setup first though, because i don't want to loose my gaming ability :D

switched from Xfce4 to DWM as it suits me better :)

Font: Envy Code R

SysInfo: Conky (showing each core usage of CPU / Loads / Mem / Down/Upspeed / Date & Time)

Wall found on google

Terminal: XTerm

Still in the process of working out the kinks in my custom DWM config.h and the colour scheme but you can't complain :)

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
