I honestly only recently started writing notes and I did notice it does help me be more productive a little bit. That is only because I have terrible memory. That is why I need synced notes, if I am outside I need something for me to immediately write my thoughts down just in case I forget em.

As for your script with Git in background and a delay hoping everything is synced up… I understand why this is done, but there has to be a better way.

I agree but I couldn't find one yet.

Trust me I have no reason to mention I Arch, it isnt a thing that is seen as hard to install anymore anyway. Plus I just used the archinstall script because I couldnt be bothered at the time :D. I just made this post because people enjoy talking about what they use and so do I, also I may discover new programs such as Kiwiks now. As for FZF, I do use it but only for this. alias e='fd -H | fzf --height 99% --preview-window right:50% --preview "bat {}" | xargs -r $EDITOR'

I use Helix + Markdown + Zettelkasten + Git + Codeberg for notes. I just wrote a script whenever I type ns to the terminal I go to the Notes directory and it creates a process that git pulls in the background. I also add a half a second delay to opening Helix so HOPEFULLY by the time I write to the notes they are updated. As for backups, I was using Timeshift but it just uses too much space so I just got rid of it. I am just being careful when deleting files and directories.

fair enough LOL

Not a problem directly with the distro itself but; Void Linux. The community can be really hostile over small things, when you are following along the road they laid they are very friendly. However, as soon as you mention someone they dislike, criticize the distro and request for something that doesn't align with them you get a lot of backlash. I remember asking them to create official Void Linux Discord server on Reddit because Reddit was the platform devs were using. I got attacked because apparently Matrix is FOSS and it was ridiculous for suggesting that bla bla bla. Another one was, I shared my Void Linux rice and it was nice at first then somebody noticed the based.cooking bookmark on my browser and then my post got deleted. I don't even follow Luke Smith I just found the website on one of his videos while learning about Linux. Besides all that, there are very little packages and they intentionally won't add some packages due to political reasons, why the fuck would I want your political stance to affect my experience. If I wanted oppression in my OS I would rather use Windows or Mac, at least I would have more programs there. Sorry for the wall of text, just puking fair dislike ^^

Genuine question, why would I need a terminal multiplexer when I am using a tiling window manager? I saw a lot of people using them in normal desktop environments which makes sense but why in a tiling window manager?

It is just preference and consistency with other APIs imo. However, personally when I see LEDEnable or LEDDisable I feel like a teeny tiny bit more will happen inside the function meanwhile LEDState is like only changing a variable or something. Also I would like LED_Set(bool enabled) or if there are more LED_SetEnabled(bool b) better.

I wish that is how the world worked. They are either gonna think I am a paranoid weirdo and not do it or reluctantly install it ONLY for me.

TBF it is not complicated but it does use the simplest form of pointer arithmetic and order of operation of (++var) or (*var++). Considering OP couldn't write a basic version of this I did not want to put pressure on him. If you can understand it as a beginner good for you! You must remember that a lot of developers struggle to learn pointers in the first place for some reason. I blame AI.

EDIT: Also I did not say this is advanced, just not beginner friendly

I think you are forgetting that in a lot of countries overwhelming majority of the population uses Whatsapp for communication and you can't do anything about it.

It is not beginner friendly but it is optimized. It doesn't allocate memory or whatever. I don't expect you to understand all this but I did it for fun anyway.

int print_file(const char* buffer)
{
    // Validate the buffer
    if (!buffer || *buffer == '\0') return 1;

    // Prepare the first line prefix
    unsigned int line = 1;
    printf("%4d\t", line); // You could pre-format it if u want

    const char* cursor = buffer; // The pointer that points to the first char
    const char* linestart = cursor; // The start of the line
    char ch; // Character register

    while (true) {
        ch = *cursor++; // Read character THEN advance the cursor.

        // Check if the character is null or is newline or windows thing

        if (ch == '\0') {
            int linelength = cursor - linestart - 1; // Minus the null terminator
            printf("%.*s\n", linelength, linestart); // Print line using the length of string
            break;
        } else if (ch == '\n') {
            int linelength = cursor - linestart - 1; // Minus the newline
            printf("%.*s\n", linelength, linestart); // Print line using the length of string
            linestart = cursor;

            printf("%4d\t", ++line); // Print next line prefix
        } else if (ch == '\r') {
            continue; // Ignore the Windows thing
        }
    }
    
    return 0;
}
