My setup: a laptop with Arch Linux that I set up 3 years ago. I didn't touch the daemons/services, so it's all the basic stuff auto-maintained and auto-upgraded by arch linux. It just works (I only installed the services I needed).

But for the user facing parts, I am using my own forks of the suckless tools: dwm (Windows manager), st (terminal), slock (screen locking) It took me a little while to set it up to my liking, but I haven't had to change anything to my workflow, it just works. It's very barebone, but with vscode and a browser, I have all I need.

And I only need to run pacman -Suy once in a while.
