      I used to have sddm but this time I forgot to install it after a clean reinstall of Arch (btw) so I use tty for a few day and I quite like it, I think I’m going to use tty login from now on

    I always log in to my TTY. Have you tried setting your colour scheme before login? I have a mega janky setup where I add an OpenRC sysinit service that calls setvtrgb. The first lines of the startup log aren’t affected but most of them are. That way I can log in with a colour scheme consistent with that which comes after the login.

    Oh shit, I’d love to see the code to do this. I often switch to another tty to focus easier (no graphics, no temptation) and would love to have this great me.

    Please post a link, or past the code if you can.

      you can easily make this by editing a file in /etc/issue, it’s basically just html here is some possible switches that I use and I use this website to generate the logo

      You can do this by editing the “issue” file located in /etc/issue, you can put anything in there and it will display in tty login as long as it is text based, if you want it to show date and time or other information here is some possible switches, I recommended Kate if you want ascii because nano can’t display ascii
