I don’t really know. I think I just use this as a touchstone when I try out window managers or desktop environments on older machines. It’s bland, it’s boring, but it’s not resource-intensive or graphically taxing, so it makes a common point between systems.

I mean, to be honest, I don’t use this on my personal systems I build. Good grief, that would be terrible.

Which means editing them all by hand. ughh.
