We are deprecating flags based config files (will be removed in v3.0.0). We suggest you migrate to json based config files.
Config related changes:
- The deprecated flag
--gen-config confis removed - Flag
--gen-confignow does the same thing as--migrate-config, which can be used as config migration and default config file generation. Flag--migrate-configis removed - Fastfetch now searches for config files in the order of
fastfetch --list-config-paths, and won't load other config if one is found. - The undocumented flag
--load-user-configis removed. As an alternative,--config nonecan be used to disable loading config files. --config(previously named--load-config) is now supported for command line arguments only. If specified, other config files won't be loaded, which works like other programs.- Config files will always be loaded before other command line flags being parsed. That is to say, command line flags will always override options defined in config files.

Fastfetch v2 introduces a new configuration file format: JSON config. Please refer to https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Configuration for details.
Changes:
- Drop the dependency of cJSON. We now use yyjson to parse JSON documents.
- Remove
--shell-versionand--terminal-version. They are always enabled (Terminal / Shell) - Remove
--*-error-format, which seems to be useless - Remove
--display-detect-name. Display name is always detected, and will be printed if multiple displays are detected - Deprecate
--setand--set-keyless; they may be removed in future releases. Use JSON config with Custom module instead - Remove the special handling of Command module (it can be set once in the triditional
config.conf). Use JSON config with Command module instead - Change
--wm-theme-*to--wmtheme-*. Affectkeyandformat(WMTheme) - Change

kittyimage protocol, it doesn't supportkitty-direct - wezterm support more image formats other than
.png(tested with.jpgand.webp)

This release brings support for MacOS! The basics things are working, but it is far from feature parity with Linux. I developed this in a VM, so bugs on real hardware are likely. If you have a Mac and no idea what to do with your free time, i am very happy to accept pull requests / work on issues.
A lot of things were changed under the hood to make this possible, which should bring better performance and stability on all platforms.
Besides that, the following things have changed:
Features:
- The binary prefix used can now be configured, and is used consistently across all modules. Set
--binary-prefixtoiec(default),siorjedec. - AMD GPUs now have a much better name, if the file
/usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.idsexists. For example my dedicated GPU, which was displayed asAMD/ATI Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT, is nowAMD Radeon RX 5600M.
