GTK, Qt and Hyprland's own text move to the shell's pair: Noto Sans for
interface text and JetBrainsMono Nerd Font for figures and code. They
had been Adwaita Sans, Sans Serif and FiraCode.
The tray menu now slides and fades in without scaling, and a pressed
button sinks one pixel instead of shrinking, so no label is ever
stretched mid-animation.
- Idle is handled in the shell instead of hypridle: the screen dims
slowly at 4 minutes, locks at 5, powers down at 6, and suspends at 15
on battery. Idle inhibitors hold every stage off; Super+Shift+I does
the same by hand and puts a cup on the rail.
- The shell draws the wallpaper (backdrop/), so hyprpaper is gone. The
picture is drawn a little larger than the screen and drifts with the
workspace a beat after the windows, and dims a shade while windows are
open. The path lives in quickshell/wallpaper.
- The lock screen and power menu say "Take your time." instead of the
NieR slogan.
- hyprpaper is no longer launched twice, the media module keeps the
player that played last instead of an empty browser tab, and grouped
windows show thin untitled tabs with their place in the group (2/3)
in the bar title.
- qt6ct uses Darkly; the package list gains adw-gtk-theme and darkly-bin.
Hyprland:
- Windows round at 8px, concentric with the porthole's 18px corners at
the 10px gap, instead of square corners inside a rounded opening.
- Group tabs are solid hull slabs; the titles used to float over the
wallpaper. The current tab is lifted a step with its title in the light.
- Motion rewritten to glide and settle: no overshoot curve, gentler
popin, workspaces slide-fade a short way instead of sweeping the whole
screen, and layers only fade so they never stack on quickshell's own
slides.
Quickshell:
- Album art in the bar and the media popout is square in a hairline frame,
not masked to a leaning chamfered shape; the accent slab under the
popout art is gone, and a track change dips the title instead of
tilting the art.
- The bar's equaliser is a five-hairline signal meter that rests as dots.
- Segment meters (system, battery, OSD) are 4px rows instead of 10-12px
blocks; the toast fuse is a hairline; the clock's accent slab is a
neutral divider.
- No hover pops: rail icons, tray icons, media transport buttons and
P5Button no longer scale up or lunge sideways; the icon bump is reduced.
Terminal: ANSI bright black drops to #464d44. TUIs use it as a panel fill,
and at the outline grey it read as a flat light slab.

Replaces the Persona x Mocha rice. NieR's menu language is kept whole —
plain rectangles, hairline rules, letter-spaced upright capitals, a square
marker on the current row, corner ticks round panels, and selection shown
by inverting the row — but the colours come from ~/.wallpapers/space-1.jpg
rather than from the game's beige: the grey-green void as the ground, the
suit's sage grey as text, the planet's white as the one accent, and the
hull's red indicator lights as the alarm.
The Persona geometry is switched off rather than ripped out: Theme.skew
and Theme.cut are 0, so P5Panel, Skew and Geom collapse to rectangles.
Overshoot easing, italics and black weights are gone shell-wide.
New, borrowed from caelestia's screen border: bar/Frame.qml draws the bar,
the rail and a thin left/bottom band as one hull on the bottom layer, with
the desktop as a rounded opening cut out of it. Frame also owns all four
exclusive zones, so the bar and rail are placed from the screen edge.
Hyprland moves to 1px borders lit from the planet white into grey, a soft
wide shadow and gaps measured from the opening. Alacritty, fish and dunst
get matching YoRHa palettes. Neovim, GTK/Qt and btop are still Mocha.
