Since Neofetch is no longer maintained, what are some good alternatives?

Neofetch alternatives?

Does anyone know the best practice insofar as where to place aliases, plugins and functions
Well, if neofetch takes 2s for you to load, maybe it worth to take a look at alternatives like fastfetch. But yeah, measure time and see what's up. There's also a way to compile zsh scripts with zcompile, see man zshbuiltins.

Can't wait to compile neofetch
This is how you compile neofetch

Anon is a sysadmin
Fun fact: You waste half of your life waiting for neofetch to execute during shell startup. Use paleofetch instead. It's almost a replica of neofetch written in C but it runs instantly without any delay.

I Created a Fast Alternative to Neofetch for Gentoo Written in C Called Cfetch
I'm really excited to share my project in this subreddit. Basically Neofetch is written in bash so it's extremely slow. This is especially bad if you like to run it every time your terminal starts (I don't do this but I run the command a lot). Someone wrote an alternative to Neofetch in C. It is no longer maintained so another person forked it to maintain it.

Was annoyed at the speed of Neofetch and I found an awesome alternative
I know about Paleofetch but it lacks features, is user-unfriendly (gotta recompile to change configs, also sucks if you don't understand code), couldn't make it on some distros...

Been using ubuntu for 10 years decided to finally try something new and in my opinion way more stable. i think i love rolling releases now and wont be switching anytime soon :)
The above was a joke, lol. paleofetch is a rewrite of neofetch in C and it's claim to fame is shaving neofetch's 222 millisecond run time down to 3 milliseconds. I doubt any human thinks fast enough to effectively use 219 milliseconds. https://github.com/sam-barr/paleofetch
