Emacs Is My New Window Manager
The developer has been missing on GitHub since 2020 [1]

Emacs GUI Library
There have been tiling window managers based around Emacs before. I think the most recent I tried was https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm -- in this case the window manager is itself emacs, and your windows are buffers in emacs etc.
It makes a lot of sense, since Emacs does its own tiling, and one is usually familiar with the keystrokes already, and then you don't have tiling in tiling.
So I keep meaning to go back and try this again, or something similar, but I recall it having issues with a lot of my commonly used applications back when I tried it.
When I get in the tiling mood, I use regolith, which is a nice packaging up of i3 in with the gnome environment. I'd love to have something like that, but built around emacs.

Does anyone here live inside emacs? can you share your workflow if you do?
The tools I use for living inside Emacs are: - EXWM as window manager https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm - mew for e-mail https://www.mew.org/en/ - org-mode for calendar and todo-list https://orgmode.org/ - terminology as shell/terminal (before it was xterm, but wanted transparency) https://www.enlightenment.org/about-terminology.md - elfeed as rss-reader https://github.com/skeeto/elfeed - hackernews for Hackernews-reader https://github.com/clarete/hackernews.el - browser eww and Firefox - pdf-tools for viewing pdfs and in mew they are converted to text view

Are There Window Management Options For Emacs That Are Alternatives To Tab Bar Mode And Eyebrowse Mode, And Are Similar To Something Like 'i3'?
EXWM is a full-blown tiling window manager for X11 that runs in Emacs. I've been using it for years. It's kind of difficult to get going, but I'd never switch back now.
- Use GNU Emacs

The benefits of everything (in Emacs) being a buffer
Suddenly, I have that uniformity and consistent experience everywhere, and only a single configuration language to learn and use to get things how I like them.
If you like both emacs and tiling window managers, I strongly recommend it.

Is there a way I can tell which exit node I am using from CLI in Linux?
I'd like to just be able to write a short shell script to check if an exit node is in use, and then pipe that output into polybar which I use anyway. The problem is that I can't find an option in the tailscale Linux CLI client that will show me whether I'm using an exit node or not. Is there a way to do this?

Are there any tools to analyse/modify colours directly from a bash script?
I am on Arch Linux and I am using pywal to generate a colour palette from my wallpaper, which I then use throughout my system. In particular, i have a bash script which grabs these colours and uses them for polybar. The problem is that sometimes these colours do not have enough contrast, and the bar is hard to read. Is there any tool that would allow me to check the readability of my colours, and modify them accordingly, directly from my script? If not, how should I be approaching this issue?

Polybar setup on XFCE
Hello, currently I am trying to get polybar setup on XFCE. I was getting an error along the lines of "background_manager: Failed to copy slice of root pixmap" and according to this GitHub issue, the only solution is to try and set the background another way, like using feh. My only issue now is that it seems like feh isn't actually doing anything whenever I use it to set a wallpaper. I believe this could be because of a conflicting system in XFCE that sets the wallpaper, how can I disable XFCE wallpapers?
