Dotfiles feel too intimate and personal to share

I was kind of surprised to see this article on HackerNews, so I thought I'd ask here; how do you handle your dotfiles and do you share them publicly?

My own dotfiles started from those provided by ArcoLinux, with a bunch of changes over the years I had them. Currently installed using Ansible, because that's more sensible than Bash for this imo.

Static_Rocket

in reply to harsh3466 • 1 mese fa • •

Honestly, I was running into the limits of stow. Want to unstow some configs on a bare machine? I hope you wanted that entire directory to be a symlink. Then I saw that someone had actually fixed that many years ago but the maintainer at the time was caught up in some personal crypto related projects and did not appear to be looking at the mailing list.

Chezmoi fixed that, applied a templating engine and added a data mechanism. In moving my stow configs I realized that application specific config file deployments are nice but shouldn't be necessary. Templates fill that gap, and meshing them with scripts allows you to do some cool things only when variables change.

Plus I was beginning to play around with go at the time, so it just seemed like a good idea to use something I could contribute to if I needed.

I still don't think I'm using chezmoi to it's full potential, but I am fairly proud of the script I use to determine data sources for my waybar config on all of my machines.

Yeah, I've been using scripts to set only the parts I actually want to modify, which is already a pretty good step for reducing the amount of information and knowing what you publish without having to review the dotfiles when you back up your latest configuration changes.

But even with that, there's some info I do not particularly want public.
Like, it starts with the name of my user account showing up in places. On my personal device, I just call it "main" to sidestep this whole problem, but if I want to use those scripts on my work laptop, well, the user name there is a shorthand of my real name, which I do not want to publish.

But there's also lots of things in between.
Like, I make music as a hobby, which isn't really something I care to announce to the world, but decided I don't mind the world knowing either.
On the other hand, I decided against sticking my RSS feeds into there for now, because I want to be able to add any RSS feed without having to think about whether I want that particular interest public.

Do you mean the username of your home directory? Because you can also use "$HOME" in scripts to refer to it without having to give the specific file path

in reply to eta

Ephera

in reply to eta • 1 mese fa • •

Ah yeah, that didn't make a ton of sense. To some degree, I wanted to say that it may show up in various config files, which you're right, I could template with a shell script.

But then I'm using Nix for scripting, which has a concept that everything should be defined in the repo, so you shouldn't have dependencies on external state like $HOME or $USER.

I'm still working out to what degree that's actually necessary/useful (and I do have a workaround, so I don't need to check in my username). But I'm guessing, it comes partially from the 'proper' thing being NixOS, where you define the whole OS in your configuration, so you would need to type out at some point anyways, what the user should be called, so that it can create it.

I got into the habit of keeping a ~24 GB VM image that I just clone to fresh systems and have yet to find the motivation to hunt down the config files I've created or modified over the years. I'd probably want to rip a couple personal in-jokes and spicy comments out, but that would still be very rare.

Not that it's a dotfile, but much of my customization revolves around the UI, so any potential public repo would include themes, from which I'd remove some more identifying wallpapers. But my desktop config is unique enough IMO that I'm mildly afraid to post screenshots of it on accounts I don't want associated with this one.

TL;DR, Mercurial is a better VCS. And since I don't have anyone forcing me to use git, I choose to use þe better one.

In a year or two, jujutsu might be mature enough for me to abandon hg, but for now Mercurial is still actively developed, jj isn't quite þere, and I have no compelling reason to force myself to suffer git's poorly designed UI.

As an aside, you don't really see a lot of hg being mentioned, so I get it. Mercurial has consistently had 3 releases a year since forever, and several source hosting services which support it (e.g, Sourcehut). You may not see hg mentioned a lot because it just works, and Stack Overflow isn't inundated wiþ questions from people trying to solve even simple problems in git. But also, git is far more used þan hg, þanks largely to github.

I've always felt like on paper hg is better than git but in practice it doesn't feel like it to me. Kinda like arguing beta is better then vhs, etc. Also kinda wanted darcs to succeed and while it seems to still be developed it's so niche as to not exist.

But the great thing is they do exist as alternatives.

darcs was þe best!! Except it didn't scale, and got reeeally slow on even toy projects. AFAIK þat was never fixed. Noþing - not even Mercurial - has a better theory of patches.

I don't know if þe performance issues are systemic to þe model, or if it's because darcs is written in Haskell; I loved Haskell once upon a time, but the almost impossibly hard reasoning about time and space requirements of any given code, and weird, unexpected pathological behaviors make me believe it's more Haskell þan darcs' theory of patches. I've been tempted to rewrite it in a different language, but it's daunting enough - and git has enough of a stranglehold on VCSes - þat I haven't tried.

But... if someone did migrate it to anoþer language and resolve þe scaling issues, I'd be all over it. It's a truly amazing tool.

I use YADM to manage my dotfiles. I like and recommend it.

I don’t share them, though.

I work in a security-related position. My dotfiles expose more about tools I use, how I have them configured and if those configurations are secure.

I still like sharing and if there’s some snippet I think is particularly useful, I may share directly or post it somewhere. But I don’t share them all by default.

in reply to Shareni • 1 mese fa • •

I don't use symlinks, I copy the files to their place. This also means I have to manually copy updates back into my repo, but it massively reduces the risk of committing a private key or a bunch of bad changes to my repo.

My switch to Ansible from bash was mainly motivated to make the initial setup more robust. My setup script would need fixes every time I installed a new machine and be semi-unattended at best. I find it also easier to make changes and add new steps

I've done that for one or two modules, but if that's too much, I just do the hackjob solution: have the actual dot files in the repo and include them in the config, so nixos copies then to the store read-only and links them to my home. But I've had that come up pretty rarely, tbh. I don't know if Home-Manager has become more comprehensive or if I'm just not that demanding, but I've only had a handful of modules where I needed to do significant tinkering

The vast majority of dotfiles can be split into multiple documents. If you want to share but also put sensitive/personal information in some of them, just part the personal bits out into separate documents and maybe give them all an easy to filter suffix/prefix.

Abolishing the First Amendment for Israel - Chris Hedges

I testified at the New Jersey state capital in Trenton last week against Bill A3558, which would adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism, which conflates anti-Zionism with antisemitism.

“I have had numerous relationships with Israeli journalists and political leaders,” I went on. “I knew, for example, former Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin who negotiated the Oslo peace agreement. Rabin was assassinated in 1995 by an Israeli ultranationalist who opposed the peace accord. Rabin stated bluntly on numerous occasions that the occupation was harmful to Israel. Israeli colleagues frequently criticize Israeli policies in the Israeli press in language that would be defined as antisemitic by this bill.”

“These kinds of statements, and many more I can quote from Israeli colleagues and friends, would see them under this bill criminalized as antisemites,” I added.

Committee chairman Robert Karabinchak, a Democrat, muted my microphone, banged his hammer for me to stop and allowed gaggles of Zionists, who openly harassed and insulted Muslims in the room, to jeer and shout me down.

There I was arguing that this bill would curtail my free speech, at the same time I was being denied free speech. This cognitive dissonance defines the United States and Israel.

The committee chairman also muted Raz Segal, the Israeli historian and genocide scholar and, in an especially callous move, chastised Mehdi Rabee, whose 14-year-old brother Amer was killed by Israeli soldiers in April 2025.

America, like Israel, exists in a parallel reality. It denies the stark and incontrovertible reality of the live-streamed genocide. It slanders anyone, including Israeli holocaust scholars such as Professor Segal, as antisemites.

I know, sadly, where this goes. I witnessed it in the many dictatorships I covered as a foreign correspondent for two decades in Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. Those of us who fight for an open society are silenced, attacked as traitors and criminals. We are blacklisted, censored and at times, locked up. If we can escape in time, we are forced into exile. As we are silenced, the sycophants, grifters, Christian fascists, billionaires, Zionists and thugs, elevated to the highest positions in the federal government by the Trump White House, are rewarded with absolute power, luxury and debauchery.

Abolishing the First Amendment

Those who testified at the state capital against New Jersey’s adoption of the IHRA, arguing that it would criminalize free speech, had our microphones muted and were shouted down, proving our point.

I think I know all of these apart from the Arabic one (which is hard for me to look up since I don't know Arabic)

(Top, "made up nonsense")
- CGTN is China Global Television Network and is an international outlet ran by the Chinese government
- Telesur seems slightly more complicated than the rest, in that it's owned in part by 3 different Latin American governments (Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba), though it's headquartered in Venezuela. I actually often watch/listen to Telesur because it streams 24/7 on Youtube and I've been trying to teach myself Spanish (obviously it's also available in English). It's very anti-US.
- RT is Russia Today and is probably the most hated news channel in the west, since it's ran by Russia. A lot of major online platforms have banned or censored it for "misinformation"

(Bottom, "so true")
- NPR is (US) National Public Radio, funded partly by the US government but also by some limited advertising. NPR seems to have the best reputation among US liberals out of all these stations
- VoA (Voice of America) and RFA (Radio Free Asia) can kinda be lumped together. They were both made and ran by the US gov to broadcast pro-US/anti-communist propaganda internationally, and have never really deviated from that. I don't know how many people unironically take them seriously, considering there are other outlets with similar perspectives that aren't such blatant propaganda
- BBC (British Broadcasting Company) News is the UK government state news... a lot of genocide denial from them recently

I spent longer than I thought I would typing this, but I hope somebody cares and tells me what the Arabic one is (or just corrects/adds anything else I missed out or got wrong)... Hope it was interesting/helpful though.

If anyone still thinks Western mainstream media tells the truth after the recent Palestine coverage, there's no helping them.

I was done with them a long time ago. I built my PC last year and made sure it is all AMD. Linux is so much better without Nvidia. It really is a just works system for me. It's not perfect, but nothing really that I can't manage.

Israel Blames Hamas for Malnourishment of Israeli Captives as It Deliberately Starves Gaza

Ahead of the meeting, Hamas is vigorously rejecting Israel’s allegations that Palestinian forces in Gaza are abusing Israeli captives by depriving them of food. “For the Israeli prisoners held by the resistance in Gaza, they are experiencing the same conditions as the people of Gaza,” Hamas officials wrote in an August 4 letter to the council obtained by Drop Site. “The famine—caused by the occupation regime—affects all areas of the Strip, and inevitably its effects are reflected upon the 'Israeli' captives, just as they are reflected upon their captors, their families, and the overwhelming majority of Gaza’s population.”

Gaza’s health care system has been systematically targeted by the Israeli military and is struggling to cope without medical supplies, with Palestinian doctors and medical workers suffering from hunger and malnutrition themselves. On Monday, officials at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis said at least 38 people died after arriving at the facility over the previous 24-hour period, and many hundreds more are being treated for injuries.

The Voting Rights Act is facing the biggest threats in its 60 years

cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/34252194

George Chidi
Wed 6 Aug 2025 07.00 EDT

Though constitutional amendments passed after the American civil war ended slavery and commanded racial equality before the law, American lawmakers regularly found ways to keep Black citizens from exercising political power. Literacy tests, poll taxes, separate ballot boxes for Black and white voters, white-only primary elections, purges of Black voters from the rolls and discriminatory district lines rigged elections for white voters in the US’s Jim Crow era.
Each time a court struck down a state law or demanded the end of a discriminatory practice, obstructionist local lawmakers – mostly but not exclusively in southern states – would quickly adapt, often enacting new election changes without enough time for a court to intervene. Civil rights laws at the time held insufficient authority to stop the practice.
After years of campaigns for voting rights and racial equality across the south, the civil rights struggle came to a head in March 1965 in Selma, Alabama. The death of Jimmie Lee Jackson, a Baptist deacon and local voting rights activist, at the hands of state troopers led 600 people to march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge.
State troopers attacked demonstrators with truncheons and teargas. As networks broadcast the assault, the US watched future US representative John Lewis get beaten into unconsciousness by white police officers live on national television. Support crystalized for civil and voting rights after the events of the “Bloody Sunday” broadcast.

Hey, Michael from Signal Jam here. Quick update!

A couple of weeks ago, we made a post announcing our new privacy podcast, Signal Jam. We were surprised by the traction it gained, and are grateful for the warm reception and greetings we received.

As of today, we have our own Lemmy community, over at !signaljam@lemmy.ml. We'll post new blog entries and episodes as they become available. It will also serve as a redundancy for verification of our contact information (GPG keys, Signal, emails, etc.).

If you want to follow along and engage in some discussion over there, consider this your invite!

We don't want to clog up !privacy@lemmy.ml with our stuff, so from now on, we will make posts exclusively on our community, though we may engage in comments here from time to time.

Thanks y'all! Looking forward to hearing from more of you in due time. 🙂

Hey, everyone. If you're looking for a fresh privacy podcast, we recently started a new one called Signal Jam.
Here's a bit about why we made Signal Jam and what we're hoping to do differently.
We even have preliminary ways for you to participate in the project, which you can read about here.
Feel free to connect with us on Proton, Tuta, Signal, or here on Lemmy. Looking forward to your feedback and thoughts!

Participate
While we try strive to make original content and refresh old topics,…

Iran says spy executed for passing nuclear secrets to Mossad

The Iranian news agency SNN, or Student News Network, reported that a man named Roozbeh Vadi had been found guilty of "espionage and intelligence cooperation in favor of the Zionist regime" and hanged on August 5.

"The defendant was active in one of the country's important and sensitive organizations and, given the level of access he had, had become an attractive subject for the Zionist regime's spy service," it said.

The news agency did not elaborate on which organization Vadi worked for but said he had traveled to Vienna five times, including for training, where he met Mossad agents.

In the course of his "extensive cooperation with the Zionist regime," the man "provided information to the Mossad spy service about one of our country's nuclear scientists who was martyred in the recent Israeli aggression," SNN reported.

‘A million calls an hour’: Israel relying on Microsoft cloud for expansive surveillance of Palestinians

cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/34250667

Harry Davies and Yuval Abraham
Wed 6 Aug 2025 07.00 EDT

According to three Unit 8200 sources, the cloud-based storage platform has facilitated the preparation of deadly airstrikes and has shaped military operations in Gaza and the West Bank.
Thanks to the control it exerts over Palestinian telecommunications infrastructure, Israel has long intercepted phone calls in the occupied territories. But the indiscriminate new system allows intelligence officers to play back the content of cellular calls made by Palestinians, capturing the conversations of a much larger pool of ordinary civilians.

Niri and max-scroll-amount help

Hi, I just moved to Niri. I turned on focus-follows-mouse on and turned max-scroll-amount to 100% in the config file. When I try to move to the next window by putting my cursor to the edge of the screen when the next window is a QT app, it doesn't work. Other apps work fine though, just QT ones. Could anyone help me? I tried searching this issue up but I couldn't find any info.

EDIT: Found the fix! Just had to add 1 to left and right in the struts section.
