Those two things don't go together, Linux is only for servers. People that use it on their desktop PCs are inbred.

Ubuntu GNOME.

Timesink distributions can't by definition be considered desktop distributions.

>>55306452
Has systemd, not to mention GNOME is literal garbage.

>>55306652
>if it takes more than 0.5 seconds of work it's a timesink

Have you even used a real distro before?
>>
>>55306652
Timesink in itself if a fucking meme. I don't mind spending some of my extra free time for an amazing operating system

Manjaro is pretty good. I use it because I like Arch, but I don't really have the time to really maintain it on my system.

Xubuntu is probably the most comfiest Linux distribution that I've used that doesn't require hours of work to make it usable and also provides reasonably up-to-date packages. Not to mention being able to easily configure your repositories, being able to configure your mirror list to best suit where you live, adding new software sources via ppas and automatically finding and installing device drivers all from an east to use graphical user interface rather than using the terminal or editing config files.

What theme?

>>55305613
If this isn't bait, I'm reasonably sure that's KDE 3 i n that picture. In other words, that screenshot is circa 2005 to begin with.
>>
>>55311038
KDE Plasma's default dark theme, ncmpcpp, and urxvt with this config file: https://gist.github.com/yevgenko/1167205
>>
>>55311038
I'm guessing it's heavily tweaked plastik with breeze dark icon/window theme
>>
>>55311158
Also I forgot to say I had included "user_interface = alternative" to my .ncmpcpp/config file

Gentoo, or Arch if you like NSA botnets and you don't have a cpu that's fast enough for compiling everything.
