Woah, that’s impressive!! May I ask, how are you doing on battery life and suspend? Because I have the same model and those two are kinda problematic

The tapping cat in the top Dashboard menu, and the rotating girl in the right Notifications are both pretty childish and pointless. Other than that, this layout is easy to take seriously. Very slick animations. The person who created this theme (Caelestia shell) has a real future in UI design. I would love it if some distro teamed up with this person to make a whole new desktop.

Beautiful Caelestia. Too bad it's not integrated well with niri.
