System hangs on resumption
When I resume after suspending, the tty prompt for physlock comes up, as intended. When I enter my password, though, it shows the desktop and lets me move around the mouse, but the keyboard does nothing.

Is it possible to use a virtual keyboard while swaylock / lock screen is active?
I'm not familiar with the PinePhone, but since you're able to use fbkeyboard in VTs, it sounds like physlock might work for you. I just wrote a comment about it in another thread. Unfortunately it's not very amenable to customization.

swaylock alternatives?
I use and recommend physlock. It's the most security-focused screen locking utility I'm aware of. Upon activation, it switches out of the graphical session and into tty0 which helps mitigate both of your issues. It also locks TTY switching to prevent accessing a logged-in TTY while locked, which is something that I don't think most other screen lockers do.

I use physlock[0] which locks all of the ttys. I've had no issues.

[Question] What are the best plugins for zsh ?
I use about 12 plugins, most of which I've written myself.

Is there a vim mode for zsh ?
bindkey -v is a builtin starting place, but there's a lot of extra bindings you can add to make it more like Vim. Personally, I've written a few plugins which make up the difference I want, and a few more personal bindings besides.

Any tip on optimizing this?
Here's my script. It forks off a playerctl --follow with a custom format to work around read skipping empty items (like a song without an artist). You don't have to do that, I just prefer that so I can add nwg-wrapper to view album art and song title on my desktop without spinning up another playerctl read loop.

How do you keep your install clean?
Any config I write, I add to my dotfiles repo. Then I can clone it down whenever I'm setting up a new machine/reinstall

exec <application> -> size and position?
I wrote this script to run an arbitrary command when the provided app's window appears.

Custom mediaplayer.py for Waybar (working with & and "No media playing" status)
Watch out for < and > too. Playerctl's command-line has specifiers for {{markup_escape(title)}}, I use it my playerctl segment. Here's how it looks with the custom CSS.
