  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    what a cool alternative!

    I decided to run it on system without bash as neofetch replacement. It feels unreasonably complex, I spent unreasonable amount of time fighting with cmake. On normal system I have pfetch in my bashrc, since it's basically instant, and neofetch for screenshots. It's not instant, but I don't run it every second or something.

    And btw I do love speed and simplicity of C, but for fetch tool, POSIX shell is the best choice, I think.

    Is it faster than pfetch? Everything slower than pfetch really annoys me

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    Try pfetch-rs

    Just use pfetch or neofetch. Neofetch isn't really maintained however it still works. Pfetch is nice because it is a shell script and very portable

    Why does speed even matter this much for a program most people only run once to show off their new builds? Or do these programs have some other purpose than printing system specs?

    I run ulit on every new terminal. I tried doing it with neofetch at first, but it added too much startup time, that's how I discovered fastfetch

    Pfetch works well with curl

    Neofetch has always been stupid and slow
