lotuspsychjegood morning01:44
Squarewhat are your favorite apps (other than pure work productivity) that enhances your *Desktop* user experience? I love Disk Usage Analyzer and Copyq.01:48
SquareThings you think people might miss out on.01:49
sarnoldmosh is great, it's kind of like an ssh that can tolerate packetloss and IP address changes01:50
sarnoldripgrep is incredible, it's so much better than ag or grep -r01:50
lotuspsychjeSquare: these are my favs to install on fresh setups: sudo apt install vlc stacer preload haveged qbittorrent gnome-tweaks 01:51
Squaregnome-tweaks i always install too. 01:52
Squarestacer looks neat too01:53
semi always install byobu01:53
SquareI guess I was mostly after graphical applications. I don't do that much shell work01:57
lotuspsychjedepends a bit of your daily use Square 01:59
Squaredefinitely does. 02:00
lotuspsychjewhat will your computer be doing mostly, and what are your interests Square 02:01
Squarelotuspsychje, i work as a programmer since 20+ years, so there's a lot of that. Otherwise i mainly browse the web and play games. But I dig tools to help me stay organized and access info easily. 02:14
lotuspsychjecool sounds great02:14
sarnoldSquare: I've been meaning to try out logseq for a few months but just can't find the time to do it; check it out, maybe check out obsidian, a non-free thing that seems pretty popular too02:15
lotuspsychjeSquare: another handy one im using is workspace indicator inside the package gnome-shell-extensions02:16
Squaresarnold, that looks super interesting. Really spot on things i get hyped on. I notice it looks a bit like workflowy that i dig a lot.02:25

JanCSquare: using nemo instead of nautilus, “Workspace Matrix” shell extension, “Clipboard Indicator” shell extension, using Xorg instead of Wayland (as the latter insists on putting windows in the wrong place more often than not)05:39
SquareJanC, ok. I will check those out05:41
JanCI'm using Nemo mostly because it didn’t remove features like Nautilus did, and added some useful ones of their own...05:47
JanCan example of the latter is e.g. the possibility to batch (large) copy/move/delete operations05:50
JanCbatch = queue05:51
