Easiest solution, use fish instead of bash! Default fish keybindings will allow you to just type . . or name a directory similar to how you could do with Zoxide.

Also, wait until you find about pushd and popd ;)

I used Linux Libre kernel for a bit - honestly surprised at how well most things still worked? The biggest downside seems to be Wi-Fi drivers - except for that one Atheros card, none of the modern Wi-Fi cards will work without Linux firmware blobs

Inkscape is one of those programs that’d just there and works whenever you need SVG editing - actually standard SVG that renders in browse tagsr or exports cleanly (looking at you Illustrator)… Combine with Sozi to get interesting presentations - have even had friends get away with editing files for CNC on Inkscape. IMO easier than GIMP as well so for simole graphics, I just import PNGs into Inkscape, do the layers, effects and text, then export back…

It keeps folder structure now? I remember when I tried to import my Digikam/Piwigo based collection, it would dump it all into 1 album flattening the hierarchy if directories.IIRC this was a technical decision on Immich choosing to use a list of albums vs a folder hierarchy. I’ll need to give it another try if it’s changed
