Their software is kinda neat, but I prefer the simplicity of configs more rather than editing and building C. I don’t really like their elitist ideology though.

I certainly like that it exists, if only to demonstrate how simple things can be.
sent, the plaintext presentation tool, is something I will hopefully be using more often soon. I used to useslocktoo which was really neat, and is probably the best screen locker if you don’t want a screensaver.I don’t know enough C to comfortably config their software, sadly. It doesn’t make much sense to force the user to edit and build the raw code to change something simple, it seems like an attempt to be “newbie-free.” In reality, it just hinders the software and user experience.
That’s a good point. I’m usually a big fan of configuring software via whatever programming language the program is written in (eg, Emacs is configured using Emacs Lisp), rather than declarative config files such as json or ini. However, the need to recompile after making a config change is pretty lame.
