Fastfetch, alternative to Neofetch on Linux

[@JulienWestfield]

This was very useful. I think you should do more.

[@friendlyalien379]

More? Like videos in general? Because they are coming :)

@@friendlyalien379 I can't find a way to change the logo to Windows 11_small. Can you help out?

[@friendlyalien379]

@@kjala_nix Just write: fastfetch --logo "Windows 11_small" You put that in your shell config file if you want to start it every time you start your terminal.

i still use neofetch in my video. I also use fastfetch but sometimes their description and logo are bigger and longer, so making screen capture a bit tricky, because I want to also show my wallpape and other things in my desktop. hey... thanks for that print logo trick, gonna use that in my installation video soon.

You can actually put your own ASCII or image whatever size you want

How can i put fastfetch to run in kitty every time i open it?

[@friendlyalien379]

You just put it in config file of a shell shell that you are running. You can see it in the end of the video.

[@yahalloe]

I like the fastness of it but I like neofetch's aesthetic more.

[@friendlyalien379]

Luckly, neofetch will work for, IMO, a long time, so you don't have to switch.

[@svan71]

Forgive my ignorance but how did you change the color of the logo and the the color of the font for the items listed in fastfetch? Great video !

[@friendlyalien379]

You add this option to fastfetch: --logo-color-1 blue numbers are different parts of fastfetch display

[@friendlyalien379]

@@svan71 the color might be impacted by the color scheme of your terminal. Because fastfetch is a simple program, it does very simple things. The other option is to show custom logo. If you give me more info on what you are using I might be able to help you.

[@svan71]

@@friendlyalien379 It's just the default Arch Linux logo it's teal, and I was trying to make it blue. I created the config folder, but I don't see the logo option. Also, the colors 1-9 I don't see what colors the numbers represent. Thanks for your video :)

[@friendlyalien379]

@@svan71 I will see what can be done and let you know

[@friendlyalien379]

@@svan71 ok, try this line and tell me if this is what you wanted fastfetch --logo-color-1 blue --logo-color-2 blue blue, if i'm not mistaken, is defined by your terminal color scheme
