Hello,

I’m looking for as many cool, even if pointless, programs as I can, be them terminal programs or gui ones. What do I mean by this? I’ll use some examples:

The Cube (I believe it was called Compiz): the one we all know and love.
cmatrix
the hollywood one
That one whose name I forget but basically spawns a cat that chases your cursor, I saw it showcased on Pop!_OS’ mastodon.
wobbly windows
Burn my window
tplay

if any of you know any other fancy program like this let me know please. I want to showcase them to non-linux people to show them what can be done here but not necessarily in other OSes (particularly Windows).

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
