As others said, the Arch wiki is so well made that it should be the only source you need. Videos will not bring you anything given your background. The main difference with other distros will be the package manager.

A video about the install process will just be someone reading the wiki to you, and a video to “explain” pacman to you will be overkill ;)

You may also find some ideas here or there.

I personaly use the power of neomutt and notmuch, but it’s not a GUI option if that’s what you’re looking for.

I will not reiterate what others have well explained Re: the use of &, though it’s surprising to see someone able to use dwm before getting control of the basics of the command-line :)

Coming back to your issue, have you applied the patch and recompiled dwm? Also, you may want to take a look at the note on this patch’s github (which was last updated 13 years ago).

There are a lot of software alternatives depending on your needs and preferences. You may want to take a look here or there.

Linux is full of options to let you build the best system for you. That means you’ll have to invest some time to decide what you want (starting with the distro). Moving to Linux is discovering a brand new world where it’s easy to get discouraged and flooded by the freedom you’re given.

In your efforts of developing a new desktop, I’d suggest to look around for already existing Linux desktops focused on visually impaired users. While they may go beyond what you’re suggesting in your post (screen reader, text speech, braille output…) you may still get some inspiration from them.

Maybe you can find some inspiration here.

Like @[email protected] I would personaly recommend the power of neomutt and notmuch, but it’s not a GUI option if that’s what you’re looking for.

One of my favorite alternatives to the default commands.

Note to OP: you don’t want to use obsidian, but obsidian.nvim is not related and not dependent on the software with the same name. Obsidian.nvim offers a Zettelkasten approach too.

Can add chawan to this list.

As others said, the fix will be easy. Reinstalling everything should never be something you have to do. In the very worst case scenario, chrooting should solve any situation. Contrary to other OS, even removing system files will not force you to do a fresh install from scratch.

Reviews are good to learn about each printer features if you don’t like to read. Then, just do a check list and see which machine has the best specs for your needs. At least that’s my approach when buying printers because at the end of the day they’re all extremely similar and capable all things considered. A consideration that may only matter to few is the proprietary/open-source aspect.

Reviews will only emphasize bells and whistles you may not even need. Everyone will comment on their personal experience which will vary with the machine they have and the gap can be huge for the same machine because it’s a piece of hardware/software and some may have flaws despite all the quality checks.

My tiling WM journey was awesomewm, I3, dwm, and now bspwm.

I use a modified chrome.css to hide all the bars in Librewolf. Interestingly my tweak for the address bar doesn’t work anymore, so I’ll have to find a new working piece of code.

I have gmail, exchange, and disroot accounts setup in neomutt. For gmail I had to generate an app specific password for neomutt because I use 2FA with gmail and neomutt doesn’t use Oauth2 as authentication method. Although, I was too lazy to try them, there are some options to use xoauth2. No surprise, exchange was the trickiest one to get working. I have to use Davmail for that. Behind an apparent complexity you just need your exchange email URL to get it running, and then you use the Davmail ports in neomutt.

Neomutt (with notmuch) is not easy when starting from scratch. Luckily there are some configurations online that get you up and running quickly. It still requires some efforts to get use to it and configured to your detailed and specific needs. I put sweat to build mine but it worth every single drop.
That being said that’s what makes its strength. It’s not an email client, it’s your email client. Once it’s configured, it’s good forever and using anything else feels like a pain.

While I’ve tried both, I am not sensitive to any of these trends. I’m just glad to see some alternatives that can fit anyone needs. That’s the power of the open-source.

Although I understand the reasoning beyond the language used in this post, I’m sad to read that hardened privacy is considered a power user thing.

I’m hosting my blog (using Hugo) on codeberg. Here is a quick howto.
The easiest option to post online for free with zero coding skills is bearblog. I’ve used it before hosting my blog on codeberg. Bearblog let you publish and organize your blog using an insanely simple interface.

There’s also the gemini option that’s worth considering. There are plenty of easy way to publish there. To cite a few: flounder, gemlog.blue, pollux.casa

Some sites don’t load because of some features disabled in Librewolf. You can enable them and have the sites load, but it defeats the purpose of the Librewolf configuration choices. Nonetheless this is still an option :)

When I first heard about Zen, I’ve tested it with EFF like I do for all web browsers I experiment with (from most mainstream to most unknown). Unfortunately, it doesn’t offer a full privacy.

Not everyone cares, but if this is something important for you, Librewolf has been the only one to come up with a full privacy protection result. Maybe you could achieve a good result if you use Arkenfox with Firefox… I didn’t try it.
