     @meeper that actually sounds worse, I like the pure text way of acme. It's not like I'd purely install and run plan 9 on my personal computer, it is just a dead research operating system now. I just like tools that work well and don't change, that's why I revolve around Unix and some amount of plan 9 so much

     you'll grow from that when you finally want to live a life, I went through that phase and it was just a waste of time and productivity
     
     plan9 is nice but this shit actually kinda goes against it because you're not accepting what the system is right now and using it's capabilities.
     
     realize that unix was an idea from a time when fucking typewriter terminals were the norm and it was already a bloated shit mess like 50 years before now so there really is no pure unix as a concept.
     
     Also plan9 was much more mouse oriented and the same ideas applied with modern fullcolour displays would also be much more different than intentionally limiting and obtuse shit for the sake of a misguided minimalism

     @nyanide@lab.nyanide.com like imagine acme with icons and maybe even a 3d renderer thing, more closer to what browsers are today but not too much of a shitshow and that allows you to tinker with the internals

     @nyanide@lab.nyanide.com idk use something like fuzzel or rofi if you're on x11 it's much less of a needlessly limited mess
     
     also dwm is a mess unless you roll like your own fork and I think the only way suckless ware should be treated as is templateware

     @nyanide@lab.nyanide.com also like use desktop files, I guess you're suckless-rot mind would think it bloat but tell me the last time you had to launch python's 2to3 as a gui program meanwhile It's always the first thing to appear in your dmenu because PATH is a polluted mess

     @nyanide@lab.nyanide.com this is what you get for unironically using dmenu
