🗾 ‎ History

Ngl this is started when im feel bored lol and decided to start using Linux, more precisely in January 2022. Fyi im a new Linux user, when it's in Linuxer Desktop Art i saw a linux setup that caught my eye, then I'm interested in and trying something similar, So yeaaaaaah this is my current setup, my purpose of doing this is to hone my skills to make an attractive UI and also as a hobby. I wanna say thank you to those of you who like and love my setup <3
