ntr (read enter)

[WIP] ntr is what I call my current Void Linux setup on my ThinkPad X220. It aims to be very minimalistic and efficient.
If you think I can improve it, or simply want to suggest something cool, please do so via matrix or email.

Every screensaver is, in reality, a .mp4 file with a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, which perfectly fits the setup.
For the purpose of showcasing, I have converted a few to .gif and imported them into this section.

Wallpapers & Fonts

I have gathered a bunch of wallpapers from Void-Wallpapers and voidlinux-i3, as well as some cool fonts from Nerd Fonts and GitHub.
The following list contains every font in its regular style:

• This is AnonymiceProNF
• This is CommitMonoNF
• This is DroidSansMNFMono
• This is GohuFontuni14NF
• This is HurmitNF
• This is IntoneMonoNF
• This is IosevkaTermNFMono
• This is MonaspaceArgonNF
• This is MonaspaceKryptonNF
• This is MonaspaceNeonNF
• This is MonaspaceRadonNF
• This is MonaspaceXenonNF
• This is MononokiNFMono
• This is ProFontWindowsNF
• This is ProggyCleanNFMono
• This is ShureTechMonoNFMono
• This is TerminessNFMono

And here's one of the included wallpapers, just to give you a little taste:

It is important to note that all wallpapers were first optimized with oxipng and then resized to 1366x768 using imagemagick.

The chosen 13 (actually 17, zipped) fonts and 51 wallpapers (also zipped) can be independently downloaded by clicking the buttons below.
