Finally figuring out how to configure #KDE in my #dotfiles 🙃

I come here to request the wisdom of the fediverse, oh tusked oracle, please favour me and let me know a good #linux software to manage my #dotfiles

I'm running Niri + Noctalia on Fedora and will soon migrate to another laptop running Niri + Noctalia on Debian.

When I started using Linux last August, most of the configs I cloned from GitHub were massive monolith scripts. Then, I saw a screenshot of a terminal on Discord-- a simple `ls -la ~/.config/zsh` --and it changed everything. It was modular.

This person had broken theirs down into `.../{aliases,functions,env,path,prompt}.zsh`. I immediately copied the concept but gave it my own spin: `.../{utils,arch,mac,git,incus,docker,tmux}.zsh`.

I eventually applied that exact same structure to all my other tools: Hyprland, tmux, Waybar, Rofi...

Modular configuration is absolutely the way forward, and it seems to have been the standard for years. Yet, people still send me their 4,000-line monolith scripts asking, "Dil, what is wrong with my script?" Even after I have explained to them that they should refactor that monstrosity into smaller bits.

Wrote up how I manage dotfiles across macOS and Linux with Nix. One repo, one flake.lock — same shell, editor, and tools on every machine. Home Manager and nix-darwin do the heavy lifting.
