Personal Linux Setup

My current setup is Regolith OS which is basically Ubuntu + i3.

Before installing

• Put asymmetric key pair in ~/.ssh
• Install git
• Install Ansible: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/installation_guide/intro_installation.html

TODO

• Telegram (maybe only possible to download)
• thunderbird config
• some kind of tag setup with: bootstrap, update, etc.
• i3 app shortcuts

Would like Ansible Vault to check in keypair for syncthing. However, then I would need a password to unlock the vault. As it is publicly available, password needs to be long and strong. I can just put it in my keepass, but can be annoying to copy every time. Therefore, I could make this available using Secret Service and write a script to fetch it. However, keepass cannot run secret service as Ubuntu already runs one. But if I disable that, my SSH agent does not work anymore. As an intermediate solution, I can just put the password in keepass...

Neovim

• More cool plugins :)
• dropdown autocomplete
• https://github.com/neovim/nvim-lspconfig/blob/master/doc/server_configurations.md#yamlls

Long-term TODO

• Move away from GNOME because it is quite slow and configuration is pretty bad. This would also mean moving away from Regolith unfortunately. I would probably move to KDE with i3. Maybe there is some distro that does this OOTB?
• Move away from systemd. Not sure how feasibly that is nowadays, but I just get annoyed by some systemd "features" such as resolved.
