C-t leaks into applications since I upgraded
I don't have an answer for you, but just a note that v1.0.0 is 5 years old (almost to the day in fact): https://github.com/stumpwm/stumpwm/releases

are ttf-fonts and modeline cpu modules dead?
Heads up, clx-truetype has an outstanding bug with XFT fonts causing a memory leak. Technically it's a forever inflating cache that can be periodically cleared but it's better to use a fork that fixes it. See StumpWM issue #861 on GitHub which links to more info.

This is how computing should feel
Welcome! Reading the manual and the code itself are the only tips I have. You can find some people's configs on GitHub and the like too by searching. Note that the manual on the website is very out of date, so use a local version after installing: https://github.com/stumpwm/stumpwm/issues/944

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?
