Free Palestine 🇵🇸.
I have pushed a hot fix to the installation scripts for all three of my SDDM themes:
Elegant Arch SDDM Theme
Elegant Manjaro SDDM Theme
#LTMNight SDDM Theme
The script now automatically backs up existing configuration files to .bak instead of removing them. This ensures your system settings are preserved during installation.
Thank you for the feedback.
I have been deep in project maintenance this past month on GitHub & GitLab, and I am happy to say the #Solus #Conky Themes are finally updated. I gave the classic Octopus design a much-needed refactor and added a new native #Wayland version called Pure.

The LTMNight SDDM Theme’s GLSL shader background in action. No fluff, just clean performance.
I’d love to hear your suggestions and feedback.
Happy news! My new #SDDM themes are now live on the #AUR and #KDE Store.
Elegant #Arch SDDM Theme
Elegant #Manjaro SDDM Theme
LTMNight SDDM Theme (Features a #GLSL shader background)
All three include a customization script to easily change backgrounds, blur strength, and more.
Originally released in 2016, I have completely modernized Elegant Arch Linux SDDM theme to meet today's standards while keeping the classic elegance you love.
Rebuilt from the ground up with Qt 6, it is now faster and smoother. Whether you are on a standard laptop or a 4K monitor, it scales perfectly.

I'd love to hear what you think or if you have any suggestions.

I am pleased that you find it impressive. Please feel free to share your feedback after you have had a chance to try it. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.
Finally finished my new SDDM theme!
Meet LTMNight v0.1.0. I built this because I wanted a login screen that feels "alive" with proper video background support.
✨ Live Video Backgrounds
✨ Dynamic Hostname Header
✨ Interactive Setup Script
✨ Touchscreen Friendly (Virtual Keyboard)
Check it out and let me know if you like it!
Is it just me, or is Hyprland’s "auto" scaling a bit much?
On my 16" (2560x1600) laptop, Fedora defaults to 1.25, but Hyprland jumps straight to 1.60. It makes my screen feel like a giant tablet.
What scale are you all running for 1600p?

Switched to Arch Hyprland: I Built HyprLTM-Net, a Rofi-Based Network Management GUI
Seeking a new challenge, I decided to build my own Hyprland ecosystem, which I’ve named HyprLTM. As the first major piece of this setup, I developed HyprLTM-Net: a sleek, open source network management graphical user interface (GUI). Powered by Rofi and NetworkManager (nmcli), it is now published on GitHub under the GNU GPL v3.0 license.

That small gesture hit big. Thanks for the first support — made my day.

This also seems like a promising option that increases the phone’s modularity. Do you know of any phone on the market that offers this?
This beautiful child with the enchanting eyes is named Zaher Shamia. He was shot this morning and lay bleeding for a long time. They couldn’t bear to let him live, so a tank drove over his small, tender body, crushing him.
And that is the end of the story.

Thanks for sharing! I believe I mentioned using a passphrase and a password manager in the tip too, so we’re on the same page here.
Appreciate your input!

True, generating is easy—the real challenge is remembering and typing it daily.
I like using a strong but memorable passphrase (a sentence) or SSH keys/FIDO2 keys for login. Makes life easier without giving up security.
Thanks for bringing this up!
🔐 #LTMInfosec Tip 2: Use a Strong, Unique Password
Your user account is your system’s gate. Use a long passphrase or a strong random password.
Generate one:
openssl rand -base64 20
Change it:
passwd
Stay secure, stay curious.

Thanks! It’s a simple function in my .zshrc (I use Zsh btw 😉), but it works in Bash too:
ltmlinuxtips() { figlet -f slant LTMLinuxTips | lolcat; }
