Should I wipe and reinstall my arch system?

Should I wipe and reinstall my arch system? - Lemmy.World

This installation of arch is 2 years old at this point and there’s nothing wrong with it and I want to do a clean reinstall to feel more fresh. But I’ve been constantly delaying it for a long time because I’m scared breaking something and also not having my laptop fully functional for even a day isn’t a pleasant thought. The benefits I think is being able to handpick which files I want to keep and which packages I would reinstall since the thought of how many files and packages are left over from when I momentarily needed them is really unpleasent. But this habit of reinstalling the OS as a cleanup method might be a bad one I’ve brought myself from the time I used windows which was justified back then but it may no longer be here since I can achieve what I want with a much more simple and less risky method So am I being an idiot here? Or should I go for it? Edit: I do have bleachbit but the benefit of a reinstall is that only system files, essential packages and my personal files are kept (actually copied out, formatted and copied back in for my files). These two aren’t the same

Closer number keys - Lemmy.World

For over 2 years my only problem when using vim is how hard to reach the number keys are. They make jumping between lines easier but despite my attempts to get used to the far number keys, some are still not easy to reach like 6. I only have ideas of what would an ideal solution could look like but I don’t know how to execute them. One is to make caps lock some kind of modifier which turns home row keys into number keys, but because of the limitations of terminal emulators even if I turn caps lock into an obscure modifier (in kde settings) I won’t be able to use it in neovim. I would appreciate any ideas that help. I’m using kde plasma with wayland under arch linux. Edit: please no mention of split keyboards. Even if I can afford them I prefer not getting used to something I have to carry additionally with my laptop
