Herbstluftwm with dmenu. Just a windows manager. I’ve gotten used to using the command line for things I used to rely on a DE for.

Thanks to all for the responses… and thanks for this detailed response. I have a habit of making simple things complicated… Which it looks like I did in this case.

I also completely agree on Chimera. It’s such a solid distro.

I’ve been running Chimera for about 8 months and love it. I’m very picky about package managers, and APK is up there with xbps (Void) in performance.

Almost everything I need I can run via flatpack. There are a few apps that I miss. They have a guide for porting them but I got lost last time I tried to get everything setup.

I thought about just running a container for those apps, but got lost in that setup too :). I’m waiting for some winter westher to hit so I have an excuse to stay inside and play with it.

Yeah. So you, myself, and some others are the exception to the rule. But, you can’t look at it that way because its a ‘lowest common denominator’ problem. The least secure of us means we are all only as secure. Others need to be hand held.

It’s definitely time to raise all boats and drop SMS 2fa like a hot rock.

Mountain biking, hiking, skiing, or golfing.

Life outdoors is so enjoyable and cathartic.

Trying to setup dnscrypt-proxy on my personal laptop. I tend to think I things are more complicated, so I went down the rabbit hole searching for all manner of issues and setup guides. It’s not hard… RTFM

Don’t forget Chimera Linux ( not to be confused with Chimeraos)!
