I wrote a minimalist fetch tool for Linux with Python programming language. Have a look: mlzfetch. UPDATE: Now with installation support (pip install .) Also I added a performance benchmark into README.

    Did you test this program re-written as a script vs running it in Python?

      No, but I was not the one claiming that the Bash version would be more performant. As said this is querying the system information, in which Python does basically the same job as Bash. I mean we are not comparing math.

          Dude you started this whole nonsense of Bash being more performant. I say without testing you can’t make such statements. Besides that, neofetch is very slow. And do you have any Python script doing this kind of work that is slower than neofetch or do you repeat what people say without testing? I do lot of Python stuff and you would be surprised how fast it can be.
