I thested this earlier and am committing it in case I encounter Zaldaryn
sooner than anticipated and forget to copy the change and then start
doing conflicting changes there.
Is it going to be in tray kindly or will I distract myself by starting
to click and read on it? It's the only autostarting app that I cannot
configure to hide or be more unsuitable for bigger chats.
It turns out that having apps full of distractions starting
automatically is not good for focusing. This leaves three instant
messengers:
* Wire - family and other small groups
* Signal - some friends, unsuitable for large groups
* Gajim - polycule and small friend groups visibly autojoined,
everything else joined as minimized so it doesn't distract me unless
something notifies me
Maybe three electrons not working with hibernate is another reason for
it to go out of fashion, I wonder if I should also add warning to myself
about quitting all electrons before either operation.
When I previously tried them, Snap worked better and Flatpak was
misbehaving, but now the situation seems to have turned around with Snap
unable to use some features such as tray icons (which is attributed to
an uptream issue with Electron builder).
* expected packages now also contains keybase
* Keybase's tray popup is now floating
* autostarting Flatpaks are separated from normal apps and below them
* Gajim has --quiet, even if it probably doesn't affect anything here
I seem to be unable to find happiness with default and often after
opening multiple windows my first thing to do is moving to stacked or
tabbed layout. Stacked layout seems easier to split than windowed which
is still easy to reach and centerized titles probably benefit windowed
layout the most.
The compton example makes everything transparent and is horrible.
Even if it's there and judgingly says that I have used half of my /,
it's still nothing to worry about and seeing it there all the time will
give me advance warning if it does become something I need to look at.
xfce4-terminal does the same things I had urxvt do and works with emojis
that were my problem with urxvt and even does copy-pasting with
Ctrl-Shift-C/V which terminology for some reason failed to do and is
probably even lighter.
I also disliked the idea of having to change the story of what is my
preferred terminal emulator everywhere, so now there is a single
variable which I can throw around as I need.
