DEFAULTS AND MINIMALLY-CONFIGURED SETUPS WELCOME! Let's create something special!

Rules

1. Screenshots of desktops must have at least one window open. You may include a screenshot of your blank desktop if necessary as an additional image in the album.
2. Image links should either be from Imgur or reddit's built-in image service. Please don't use the Imgur album link unless you are posting an album.
3. Follow the reddiquette
4. Right now only *nix (Linux, BSD (That includes Mac OS)) operating systems are allowed. This is open for discussion though.
5. Moderators can be wrong. Don't hesitate to message the mods if your post has been wrongfully deleted.
6. Prefix your post properly
7. No desktop/distro elitism

Following the r/UnixPorn tradition, please prefix your post title with square brackets and the name of your desktop environment or window manager inside.

Example:

[Cinnamon] Linux Mint has been a bliss so far!
