Uses
On my Personal Laptop (a second-hand Dell XPS 13, with 8GB of RAM), I use Niri window manager1 on Arch-Linux. On my Work Laptop, I use Niri on NixOS. My server uses Ubuntu.
My browser of choice2 is Zen.
For code forge, when I have a choice, I go with Sourcehut and Codeberg.
My favorite editor is Helix3.
I use migadu for my Emails.
I use Miniflux for following blogs and newsletters, on the server side and the app “Read You” as a client for Android.
I usually use Github’s Monaspace fonts for my coding and laptop. but I also utilize Atkinson Hyperlegible type-faces and Sour Gummy fonts for my blog.
I usually store my passwords using gopass and unix password-store.
I program in Rust (like this website), but my first language was Go. I also learned and used Elixir, but I don’t use it anymore since the ecosystem is just so facinated with all the latest hypes, instead of retaining the people that they already have.
My favorite interactive shell is Fish. It just works.
My terminal emulator is Foot, but I sometimes use wezterm.
I recently got into jujutsu (jj) instead of using git and I’m all the better for it!
I use the name Perma instead of my birth name “Amirhossein”. There is a whole post I dedicated to this one: Call Me Perma.
