Why have you fallen out of love to suckless? I recently switched from dwm back to bspwm and I was also looking for a st replacement, but couldn't find one. Which is ok, but were you able to find something "better" in the terminal emulator or window manager space?

What about blockit[0]? It does implement some of the features you need. It's still a WIP, but I'm actively working on it and it uses the adblock-rust library from Brave, which is already able to compete with uBlock Origin.

Sorry for my poor choice of words. What I wanted to say was that I prefer using software that does exactly what I need and nothing else. For some people it might sound silly, but I enjoy the suckless philosophy.

Thank you, but I don't use a notification server.

If you just need to display some text or at most you need a "yes/no" answer that integrates well with your bash script, you could try herbe[1]. I was somewhat inspired by zenity, but it felt too heavy for my minimal use case.

What do you think caused the productivity boost?
