Neofetch is Dead: This is the Better, More Inclusive Way to Show Off Your Linux Setup | Tutorial

Setting up a new Linux machine for 2026? Let's move beyond Neofetch.

Neofetch has officially been archived, but the culture of sharing our system configurations is more alive than ever. In this video, we move beyond the old standards to explore Hyfetch, a tool that does not just display system information, but allows you to do so with pride and personality.

We are walking through the installation and configuration on Debian 13 (Trixie), discussing why the shift to tools like Hyfetch, Fastfetch, and Macchina represents a more modern, inclusive, and technically active future for the GNU/Linux community.

IN THIS VIDEO:
The end of the Neofetch era.
Installing Hyfetch via APT and Cargo on Debian.
Exploring the backend (Macchina).
Customizing your layout to represent your identity.
