```bash
stow flameshot
stow ghostty
stow mango
stow niri
stow nvim
stow swaync
stow waybar
stow yazi
```
### Dark Mode
```bash
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface color-scheme prefer-dark
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme adw gtk3-dark
```
### Plymouth Fix
If the plymouth boot loading screen is not showing this fix may help:
```bash
sudo nano /etc/plymouth/plymouth.conf
```

Underneath "[Daemon]" add:
```
ShowDelay=0
DeviceTimeout=30
```

```bash
sudo dracut -qf
```

### PAM Unlock Fix
Open seahorse without the default keyring unlocked (log in but don't enter password when prompted from git or gnome-calendar) and unlock from the app. Make sure to check "unlock with login" while doing this.
### Install Fonts
```bash
cd ~/Downloads

# download font
wget https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts/releases/download/v3.3.0/Hack.zip

# create local font directory and unzip the font
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/fonts
unzip -d ~/.local/share/fonts Hack.zip

# update the font cache
fc-cache -fv

# remove downloaded archive
rm Hack.zip
```
### Idle Inhibit
using this: https://github.com/bdwalton/inhibit-bridge
(for this run "go build" and then move binary to ~/.local/bin/)
or could use this: https://github.com/ErikReider/SwayAudioIdleInhibit
### Yazi as File Picker
This could be interesting to look into to use yazi as the default file picker instead of the one provided by xdg-desktop-portal: https://github.com/hunkyburrito/xdg-desktop-portal-termfilechooser
