For whatever reason, when I see unixporn like this, it makes me want to redo my system but also try unify my rice across my main desktop and laptop. I seriously need to look into getting my dot files sorted.
I was like that five years ago. If you have the energy, I would say go for it. Explore all the different ways you can work, with tiling window managers, shortcuts and different apps to get notifications and other things. It's a lot of fun.
Go into the nvim universe for a while too. I was there and wrote my own config and my own plugins, was fun.
I mean, why not.. :) What else is fun at a computer...
Do you use a smaller kernel build? How do you get 880mb of ram usage? The lowest i can get is 990~1010mb with the graphics. In tty its 850~950mb. Not that it matters because i have 16gbs of ram but lower number better i guess?
