I'm Dan, a DevOps engineer who is passionate about Linux & open source software.
I have split my configuration files into separate repositories, allowing users to pick and choose what they want from my setup without having to download my complete .config files. For my daily work, I have configured neovim as an IDE and use tmux for tabs and splits for every terminal. Recently, I switched to fish for my shell.
As a minimal window manager, I use dwm, and my wallpaper collection is also backed up on GitHub.
I started using GitHub as a platform for my blog.
Gentoo and Arch are by far my favorite operating systems.
Gentoo can be installed on a variety of hardware, including ARM, RISC-V, and PowerPC. Portage, Gentoo's package manager, is the greatest package manager out there in my opinion. Being able to set USE flags and build packages exactly how I need them is just awesome! The most important aspect of Gentoo is that it allows you to choose everything, from kernels and init-systems to hardware and tailored software packages.
While Gentoo can be a great experience in a desktop environment, I personally think Arch is the better choice for installing on your notebook or PC. As a power user, I need access to big software repositories like Arch's AUR. I have often found software in the AUR that was not available on Gentoo's GURU, for example. Setting up Arch via archinstall on a new machine or in a virtual environment is also a blissful experience.
