      There is no single desktop environment on linux. Your customization begins with choosing your desktop environment/window manager.

      To get a feeling for the things people like to do, you could take a look at !unixporn@lemmy.ml or !unixporn@lemmy.world

          Yeah don’t worry, you’ll mostly be copying and pasting stuff from the Internet. Not much mental exercise, just follow instructions.

          The Arch Wiki is an amazing resource, It contains tons of useful info that isn’t specific to only ArchLinux.

          This is a choice as well. Some people like editing configuration files, while others prefer a gui. The big desktop environments like gnome or kde of course offer changing themes and wallpapers in a gui.

          You can look at some themes for kde plasma on this site: https://store.kde.org/browse?cat=104
