Linux Utilities You Didn’t Know You Needed: Automating Tweaks and Fixes

If you've ever spent hours tweaking Linux settings or trying to install software, you know it can be frustrating. LinuxToys, a Brazilian project created by Greg (PsyGreg), aims to make this process much easier by automating optimizations, installations, and common fixes for Linux users.

What is LinuxToys?

LinuxToys is a set of tools designed to help Linux users, whether you're just starting out or have been using it for years. It offers simple menus, pre-configured tweaks, and automation to handle everyday tasks and system improvements.

Key Features

  • Shader Booster helps reduce stutters in games by increasing the shader cache limit.
  • Lucid Glyph improves font rendering for clearer and more comfortable text.
  • Simplified Installations automates the setup of complex software.
  • Essential Configurations take care of things like swap creation and firewall setup.
