Para este #viernesdeescritorio traicioné a Plasma 😜
Esta semana instalé #Hyprland con los dotfiles de #ML4W y aquí estamos. Lo he puesto con este esquema de colores Catppuccin (los mejores esquemas de colores, no acepto discusión), a mano, porque aquí todo es a mano. Es como tener una computadora en el siglo 19.
Hasta ahora me gusta, pero igual ahí tengo a Plasma.

Hey y'all ☀️
A new install script has joined the family. If you are a fan of #Hyprland then rejoice.. We have created a script that will make it less painful to install it. It also includes an option that will apply the #ML4W dot files, should you choose it as well as our famous toolkit. Please make sure to read the note included.

Setting up Hyprland on Linux may not always be easy, but it's definitely worth it if you are interested in experiencing an entirely different minimalist and beautiful approach to using desktop computers. Been daily driving this system for about two weeks and it made me question everything we take for granted in Desktop operating systems. #ML4W #Hyprland
10/10, would tinker again.
