I have reinstalled Ubuntu 22 today and I hate it. Only supported release (you can have derivates). And after that, Chrome is the only supported browser, Workspace One for maintenance, Carbon Black as spying blackbox. Evrything what makes Linux the best is crippled for me by incompetence of the admins. My loophole is that Guix is in distribution :)

My i3 is using shortcuts heavily, my rule is to use Win key for window manager combos and never use it in Emacs. Works fine so far.

• Keyboard: OpenBoard (works great, support anonymous mode, my layout, emojis, paste, move cursor using finger over space button, longer deletes using finger over backspace)
• Music Player: Odyssey (I don’t rely on ID3 tags but directory structure instead - there is too little of those players who use it)
• Music Player: ViMusic (FOSS interface to Youtube Music)
• Music Player: RadioDroid (for online radio stations)

How to exit Vim? C-x C-c and follow instructions…

Some subset of modern Linux distro - Firefox, Emacs, Git, Tmux, OpenSSH, i3, sway… Android - F-Droid stuff

Steam with Proton made this way more easier than in the past. OTOH, yeah, sometimes I feel like this when tuning CS2 on Wayland.
