i didn't mean as a version. I meant as overuse of streams

so you don't use wayland

what did you use instead of conky?

If you manage to infect your systemd unit list which requires root privilege and give it a permission to run on boot I don't think it's an attack vector anymore its one's stupidity. Systemd is the furthest thing from an outside attack. Someone might poison your bashrc and its more possible than someone inserting a malicious unit file and asking you to run.

If the fonts are installed as systemwide snap or flatpak applications may not be able to see them. Since they are allowed only to the user directories by default.

You can copy the fonts to user directory

cp /usr/share/fonts/your-font ~/.local/share/fonts/

nextcloud is really great. you can store files or even video call them in addition to messaging. You can create roles message groups etc

sometimes during setups the env variable is not applied for some reason. you can manually enter the supported domains to config/config.php. maybe that's the cause

Thunar or Pcmanfm are pretty good. They support pretty much all of the dbus calls(drag drop etc.). Only thing they lack is the support for GOA(GnomeOnlineAccounts a synch tool for common drives). Other than that they are on par with Nautilus feature wise. I think they are slightly faster too and allow custom commands.

I don't know a file manager with video player included. You can download mpv. It's a pretty lightweight video player.

C Bash and Go. I feel like I can do pretty much anything with this trio.

But Java is my paycheck language.

I think the awesomeWM has the status bar you've described.

Clear victory

GOA or Gnome Online Accounts basically pings the target site that has the requested WebDAV and IMAP(for the calendar, events, tasks and email). Which occurs between every 10 to 15 minutes. Every ping GOA makes contains Browser Agent information. In that case, it's GOA instead of a browser. It contains simple information like which distribution and its version are you using. Since it's running under the Gnome, the desktop environment name can be extracted as well. However, GOA is a standalone application that can be used on Cinnamon, MATE, and XFCE. So that part is pretty useless. But when the Google Drive is used, it is mounted to your disk with GVfsd. It has to send every action you make to that directory to Google since the directory is not physically mounted .
