    I used to use starship with zsh. It’s pretty good, I did write my configuration from scratch but kept it really short and barebones. The configuration is fairly nice and easy so you won’t feel overwhelmed really.

    Although at this point I just use bash with the default prompt in Fedora. Couldn’t be bothered setting it up again(even though it takes like 5 minutes) because I rarely use the cli lol.

    Fair lol.

    I’d suggest trying to always use the apps in the same workspaces. I always open discord spotify steam in the leftmost workspace, firefox in the rightmost and the 3-4 ides i have open in the middle each on its own. Makes navigating through them a second nature in no time.

    You needed to replace the workstation release identity package with the plasma release identity one. I don’t remember the exact names but that will let you uninstall all gnome packages.

    You can just switch to kde or xfce if you dont like gnome, thats what linux is all about. For one I cant really use anything not-gnome anymore, its workflow feels just so efficient and is equally good with a touchpad, keyboard and mouse. I usually get distracted really easily on kde and the likes but gnome just gets out of the way and lets me focus more on my work.

    Gnome console…I know its pretty hated but i dont really need the customisation any other terminal provides. The rare times i have to use a terminal outside of development, I’d much rather have smooth scrolling and a native looking app than the option to add color schemes that I’d never use.

    Most of the times I actually need a terminal I just use vscode or intellij’s inbuilt one lol.





  • I won’t delete my account, atleast not in the foreseeable future. Won’t install the official app though and stop using reddit on mobile entirely. There’s just so much resources and old content available on reddit, and a lot that I’ve saved, that’s next to impossible to migrate anywhere. I’ll keep my account for that, and just that so I can access it when I need to.
