Pure Bash Bible
> does NetBSD sh or FreeBSD sh have them.
Yes and yes. My FreeBSD machine has not even been updated in 5 years, if that helps.
> What's the point of "pure sh" if it's restricted to specific versions of shells.
The aforementioned features have been implemented for a very long time. The issues with old versions of dash I mentioned were crashes for very simple things, which is simply a bug rather than some fancy new-fangled feature that was yet to be implemented. Plus, the bible specifically listed workarounds for them.
dylanaraps has quite a prolific collection of shell programs, and they run on a variety of operating systems. Most notably, pfetch[1] runs on Linux, Android, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Minix, Haiku, macOS, Solaris and IRIX. I assure you that he is fully aware of the importance of compatibility.
His pure Bash bible even has very thorough warnings for Bash versions required, since macOS uses Bash 3.2 (released in 2006) due to licensing reasons.

I have finally installed Linux From Scratch! (Yes neofetch was necessary)
If it has a tarball it can be installed and pfetch does have one.

VanillaOS logo for pfetch
If you know pfetch, I recently rewrote it in Rust and also added a bunch of logos, including one for Vanilla OS.
-
SteamOS logo for pfetch
The logo is also backwards compatible with the original pfetch by dylanaraps written in POSIX sh, if you prefer that.

Updated Pop! OS logo in pfetch-rs
If you have used pfetch before, I rewrote it in Rust, resulting in an about 10x faster execution time. It also includes a new ascii logo for Pop! OS that was made by Github user ThomasM92 for the original pfetch, but was sadly never merged.

pfetch-rs - A rewrite of pfetch in Rust
pfetch is a popular system utility written in POSIX sh that displays system information. I rewrote the tool in Rust, making it run 10x faster. Repo: https://github.com/Gobidev/pfetch-rs

sway
- Sway is an i3-compatible Wayland compositor
- Sway 1.9 Release
- Sway 1.9

"We understand" ;)
This is partially why i use tools like i3 (/ sway). i like the tool; it works extremely well for me; the design has stayed the same for 20 years; there's no profit motive to come along and fuck everything up. it just works. it is boring in the best way possible.

Firefox on the Brink?
I also have crashes on sway, but thereās a rough workaround now which prevents the issue totally.
I believe thereās a design issue with Firefox and GTK handling input events; some Wayland compositors have workarounds but others do not.

Firefox is my preferred browser and I hope we can keep its engine alive in this era of Chrome dominance.

Sourcing dot profile on sway starutp
I'm seeing this: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Setting-Environmental-Variables but I haven't figured out how to make GDM do it, and I was wondering if there was a super simple "HEY SWAY READ MY .PROFILE" thing I could do.

Option to not scale xwindow clients still out of the question?
So I searched around and found the following bug report where this problem and a possible solution was borough up: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/2966 , which was then immediately closed again.

What Desktop Environment or Window Manager do you use on your Arch Linux System and why?
I've been using Sway since late 2019. I like the workflow of a WM. I honestly find it hard to go back to a DE, I like having a minimalistic desktop.
-
On Desktop GUI Minimalism
Sway is fast, minimal, and flexible. Their recommended tools/addons are worth a look: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway
From that list I use greetd + tuigreet as my login manager, sway-launcher-desktop for FZF-powered app launching, and wob for lightweight brightness and volume display (send '50' to the wob socket and it'll show 50%; it doesn't get simpler).
