I use ranger frequently also, e.g. for navigating around an unfamiliar directory tree to see what dirs and files are there. But cdist automatically keeps track of all directories I cd to and allows me to quickly jump back to any of them. Generally I work in various projects/dirs etc, and then just cd -- to switch between them (or I sometimes use fzf nowadays which can fuzzy search that cdhist history).
Another example on how the modules matter more than pont itself. On it's own it has 0 context on what XDG folder locations are, but I have an xdg module (https://github.com/AlexAegis/dotfiles/tree/master/modules/xdg) that has an environmental file in ~/.config/environment.d listing my XDG config (which is pretty much the default but that doesnt matter) And a named, environment script. These environment scripts are always run, no matter what. And I'm using them to source environmental variables, so if ANOTHER module is dependent on xdg because I'm using these variables, it doesnt matter if my environment has these variables or not, pont will load them, from there.
its amateurish but it works, probably fsearch is a better option to use for most people.
I replied to the wrong comment, I was asking about kakoune. I already use Micro, but oddly enough, micro is kinda broken on my system because of bugs like this https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/267 and a few others that don't seem like they'll ever get fixed.
Something I wrote: frece.
You should try Foliate. I recently found about this after using CoolReader for years and have never looked back.
I want to be aware of important package updates but don't want to read the whole update list, so https://github.com/ouuan/pacwatch.
pass, a password manager that encrypts all the contents and git versions it for easy syncing and version control.
remember the quotes or bash will split the individual arguments
I've replaced systemd-backlight with a brillo wrapper script, because I miss the smooth backlight restore from Windows.
Not to take away from the good work you've put in, but how does pont compare to the other managers listed here. I've just started trying out chezmoi myself fwiw.
I use z for this purpose.
nvidia-all - since it fixes one nasty freeze nvidia couldn't fix for a year
lsidups - my own extensible cli tool for finding similar images
sxiv - fast and scriptable image viewer
buku - cli bookmark manager, I use it mostly with fzf wrapper (fzfmenu version)
fzfmenu - every dmenu user who knows about fzf at some point probably wrote something similar, so here's mine ;)
And lf with ueberzug - if you still use ranger, check it out, it's really good and faster.

zoxide - for quick jumps between frequently visited directories (integration with lf is trivial)
I had issues with all the available terminals in some way. The one that worked best for me was stjerm, but even that was flakey sometimes. Then I discovered tdrop which lets you make any window into a dropdown one. I wrote a small script that combined tdrop with termite and I've been using that ever since. Used with tmux it's unbelievably useful.
