Thank you, but I never intend to write another thesis. One doctorate was enough, and I work in clinical practice so I don't do a ton of academic writing anymore. But thanks for sharing!

I wrote my thesis in LibreOffice and I would have been SOL if not for Zotero. Who cares what people use? Use what works.

The key is to do it manually. Reject modernity. Embrace reinvention of not just the wheel.

Nah, the trick is to, at random, leave a package out of the text file so the system isn't truly managed and all is chaos!

Package managers are for chumps. Build everything from source and track where you installed it in a single master text file.

Are you using wayland on Elementary?

Is the VGA port on your dGPU or iGPU? I know Fedora uses Wayland by default -- are you using wayland or X.org on elementary?

VLC to the rescue!
