About Me

Distribution: Debian 12 bookworm

I began using GNU/Linux in 2019. I tried Ubuntu, Linux Mint (liked it better than Ubuntu), and in 2020, moved to Arch Linux (a rolling-release distro). It was a great learning experience, but frequent breakage during updates made me realize that I don't need the latest and the greatest software. I needed something with rock-solid stability. So, in 2021 I finally shifted to Debian with the release of Debian 11 bullseye. I am really happy with my decision.

Window manager: Qtile

I have used desktop environments like Gnome, Cinnamon, Xfce, and KDE (really liked it) in the past. However, I wanted something minimal, and more cutomizable. I experimented with tiling window managers like dwm and awesomewm. Finally, I settled for Qtile, as it is feature rich, and is configured in python, something that I am comfortable with. I have been using Qtile since 2021.

Text editor: Emacs

I love emacs.
