Hello, i would like to know how you manage your dotfiles.

Do you use some gui or tui?

There are many ways i don't what to do.

Probably im going to do git repo with lazygit. I like tuis. I am managing files on two artix linux systems 1- pc and 2- laptop

So there's at least the two of us doing it this way. Syncthing is an absolutely fantastic tool.

    Yeah, it's fantastic. It's more effective at this than I thought because even though I use git a lot for programming and projects, I've admittedly forgotten far too often to commit and push/pull trivial changes on devices and in most cases, all I need is just for dotfiles to sync across devices anyway.

    I am syncing a whole lot more than just dotfiles and have done so for years. Admittedly, I am running an always-on-instance (multiple, in fact…). Syncthing hasn't put a foot wrong in over a decade.

    I am donating a small amount to the project every month and would like to encourage others to do the same.
