Fastfetch

I was not aware but Neofetch is dead.

The script will still work because it is written in bash but there will be no support anymore. As a result I’ve searched for a better alternative, here comes fastfetch !

It is neofetch on steroids, written in C it is faster, really really faster :

> time neofetch

real	0m0,372s
user	0m0,209s
sys	0m0,178s

> time fastfetch

real	0m0,024s
user	0m0,002s
sys	0m0,018s

So I’ve decided to make the switch. I’ve generated a config file : fastfetch --gen-config and i’ve changed the gpu parameters to only show the GPU name

#.config/fastfetch/config.jsonc

{
  "$schema": "https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/raw/dev/doc/json_schema.json",
  "modules": [
    "title",
    "separator",
    "os",
    "kernel",
    "uptime",
    "packages",
    "shell",
    "display",
    "de",
    "wm",
    "wmtheme",
    "theme",
    "icons",
    "font",
    "cursor",
    "terminal",
    "terminalfont",
    "cpu",
    { "type": "gpu",
      "format": "{2}"
    },
    "memory",
    "disk",
    "localip",
    "battery",
    "poweradapter",
    "locale",
    "break",
    "colors"
  ]
}

I’m really happy of the result, happy hacking !
