How does it compare to something like FreshRSS? Does it provide any kind of standard API? Do android RSS apps that work with hosted RSS work with this?
Sure, just as I said, this would work id you don't need menu or fuzzy matching. But I would recommend using fzf history search anyway, it's just too good.
Yes, as soon as all software you use in windows becomes cross platform. Big no-no if you use anything Adobe. Yes, there are good alternatives to Adobe, but if your colleagues use Adobe and you need software to work with their files, then maybe tiling window managers in windows is more realostic than just using linux.
Let me tell you that you can also add comments to your terminal commands and use them to search history using fzf. This might sound confusing but basically you do this:
commandwithweirdoptions --option1=value1 --option2=value2 # run the usual thing
Then you press Ctrl+R and type anything like «the thing», it uses fuzzy matching and finds the command in history, with a menu of other similar commands. Press enter, done.
Note that you need to have fzf installed, otherwise there is no fuzzy matching and no menu of matching history results.
Of course, RSS is the way. I mean, emails are good, but they were meant for 2 way communication. When you want to have a 1 way communication channel, RSS is always preferred, IMHO.
Even 1 RSS feed for all comments (in any location) is better than no RSS fees at all.
If I use this to make some kind of a «guest book» page on my personal site, is there a way to have an RSS feed of all posted comments? I don't think I'll be checking the page every day but I want to be notified when there is a new comment.
I think any person with ability to read and follow instruction can install arch in 15 minutes (excluding waiting for things to download), there is nothing special about it.
Yep, all this «how do I learn linux» stuff is weird. You don't learn your OS, you use it. Did you need to «learn» Windows? You just launch it and click your browser / file manager / media player and browse, manage files and watch or listen to your media files.
You can just use your PC as you would regularly use your PC and find solutions once you face some issues. Yes, Linux issues are different from Windows issues.
What do you mean by people being obsessed over Arch?
Archlinux is Linux, it's just a minimal distro that allows you to only use whatever you want to use. I have no idea what's with being obsessed over it other than «use arch btw» which became a local meme recently.
