Using libnotify for reminders
Depends... Is your goal to write an entire application to do this for you? You can use notify-send which is already linked with libnotify to do that, or look at a pre-existing application like https://github.com/hovancik/stretchly that might be more like what you're wanting to do...

Buy a good monitor if you care about your eyes!
stretchly is a free open-source cross-platform app that automatically forces you to take breaks, get a glass of water, stand up, look into the distance, move your head, etc. I use it every day and it’s awesome.

Logitech, please explain the content of this folder, have a good explanation
M1 Pro MBP here. Options+ took a whopping 1.2gigs. A simple mouse companion should never weigh so much, and it is bloated with trash. Switched to Mac Mouse Fix (for Macs only), which does so much more, and it weighs a mere 2megs now.

Is it worth to buy a MacBook Air for work/studies mainly for the purpose of learning the OS?
Although almost everything on macOS is just much more polished and higher quality, some things are just missing, if you're used to Windows. Get the fabulous AltTab, because the macOS window switcher is just garbage. Rectangle is also a must, because you will miss Windows AeroSnap feature. Since you will be using a laptop instead of a desktop, I probably don't need to recommend Mac Mouse Fix and Karabiner.
