Adds a ready-to-post draft for r/linux (2M+ members).

Angle: Leads with _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DESKTOP — the X11 mechanism that makes it sit behind windows. This resonates with r/linux's technical audience who know Conky, i3, and desktop customization.

Key talking points in the draft:

  • Raw X11 P/Invoke (no Electron/GTK/Qt)
  • Wayland caveat (honest, invites discussion)
  • Zero-deps single binary story
  • Conky comparison (read-only vs interactive)
  • Engagement hook: "which WMs support this well?"

Draft saved at drafts/reddit-linux.md. User posts manually when ready.
