I have to use a Raspberry Pi 3B+ since I gave my main machine to my girlfriend whose in dire need of a new system.

Here's a quite recent (yet outdated) screenshot of my DE in use: https://i.imgur.com/zn2gHtu.png

It's fine. Almost. I'm using neovim as my editor, gnome terminal as my terminal emulator (with bash/tmux) and epiphany for surfing the web - mostly one tab at a time since it can't handle more than that easily.

The thing I like most about this setup is how it keeps my focus centered on a task as there are not many possibilities for distraction. No absent minded web surfing, no binge-watching on YouTube and so on. But every now and then the entire system freezes completely and I have to disable a lot of useful neovim plugins (e. g. LSP).
