/e/ ROM keeps pushing apps it thinks users might need with no option to disable or uninstall them. This time it was a pdf viewer. Looks nice but I had one installed already and it worked perfectly fine.
I have now switched back to Lineage. This also fixed an issue I was facing (unrelated to /e/) where apps couldn't write to external SD card.
I made of port of the sustywp theme for the Pelican static site generator. sustywp is a minimal theme with CSS and some javascript only for the menu functionality.

Lots of dark color themes for Emacs. It was hard to find a light theme that I liked. Found this nice one recently called "Doom Nord Light" and I'm liking it :)
It is part of the "doom-themes" package and is available from MELPA.

Font used in the screenshot is "Input Mono Narrow Light"
Available from: https://input.fontbureau.com/
