tldr:
* I installed console-only Debian on an old laptop (no desktop OS at all)
* I added some packages to make it work better for writing:
* network-manager for connecting to hotspots while I'm away
* kmscon for custom fonts and more than 16 colors in the tty
* tmux for a nice status
It is. The laptop was originally my testbed for trying hyprland so it had essentially nothing else installed, I just ended up using it as a portable terminal due to some unexpected traveling and I enjoyed the concept so I’ve kept it around.
Hypr looks like overkill. I use Sway for a similar thing.
