New found popularity

It is very disappointing to see that your cool screensaver has new found popularity all due to a Linux user showing off how to run your ancient screensaver under Linux and yet you come out with new updated versions of it and don't make a Linux version. Yeah, thanks Linux community for bringing new life to our screensaver...now piss off.

3 years ago when Chris Titus first showed this off I installed it on my Manjaro KDE Laptop right away. Now years later I have had a new laptop for over two years now but had forgotten about this as I had moved on to flying toasters. A recent system update reset my screensaver and I decided to try the lcars again only to discover I never reinstalled it. I came to download a new copy and was pleasantly surprised (at first) to discover you were working on it again. It was short lived excitement when I discovered you just ignored all of us in the Linux community.

I understand this is free and you don't have to do anything but how hard would it have been to do a Linux port? If you can code for both Windows and MacOS you would seem to have the skills required to port it to Linux. For now I have downloaded the classic version and it is working under Wine just as before. It's pretty disappointing though to see Linux get the cold shoulder though. The Linux kernel runs the majority of the worlds smartphones, single board computers like the Rasberry pi, the majority of the servers that run the entire internet and even hundreds of thousands of Valves SteamDeck gaming handhelds yet where is the love on the desktop?
*** Linux and *** you!! If you want it so bad port it yourself!! It’s kinda ***ed up that you get something for free but you have to complain why it’s not tailored for your needs!!

Enterprise D and THANK YOU

I absolutely love System 47 for my Macbook. It's BRILLIANT. With all the recent Picard S3 hype, would you consider adding schematics for the Enterprise-D? Regardless, THANK You so much.

Second this! Enterprise D and Titan would be wonderful.

System47 template

Hi, are there UI templates available (even paid) somewhere? Figma? Adobe? I generally mean just graphics without subtitles, numbers. Does anyone know what font it is? I would like to design an interface like in TNG in my private CNC machine project smile Greetings, Tom

System 47 Screensaver Freezing on Exit

Hey there, Still loving the Screen saver. Looks great on my Multi Monitor Setup,
2 x 16:9 Side by side up top and one Super wide underneath.
But still freezing up on exit. I have to do the Old Ctrl Alt Del to bring up task manager, but normally as Task manager shows up, so does the desktop. so esc then gets me out.
It's a weird one for sure.

Love you Project RITOS sickbay LCARS

Any chance you would consider making it into a screen saver like System 47? Would be happy to contribute some money as a donation for the work.
