What’s the output of systemctl status systemd-resolved

Is there some more background to this, as in, what happened?

You mean as a client or a server?

Yay! They’ve done some excellent work. It’s an amazing piece of software. And has a rich history, too. Maybe this release is finally the kick I need to learn it better

So that’s why we have mobile phones

Yeah, it seems like these immutable distros with individually contained apps (maybe with some additional restrictions and hardening) are similar to what OP wants. There’s a lot of distros like this

Nix doesn’t really guarantee reproduciblity, though. It’s a neat idea for deterministic configurations. But bit by bit reproducible binary builds are an entire difference beast. GNU Guix has way more promise in that regard

It’s console servers all the way down (up?)

Theoretically, yes. But I’m not sure if it’s gonna be smooth sailing. You would probably need a custom kernel which supports the kindle hardware. I don’t know if there is any project which already packages/distributes the kindle kernel

You might have to translate the names to what Fedora reposi provide. But this should be a good start

Initrd has support to configure the keyboard layout used. Consult your initrd generator’s documentation for this

thanks for the reminder! don’t want another potential denvercoder9 situation

This is a common but solvable problem. I’m afk so can’t link the right pages, but look up the LibreOffice and/or consistent gtk/qt theming entries on Arch Wiki

Edit: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/LibreOffice#Theme might be useful. It also links to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Uniform_look_for_Qt_and_GTK_applications, which is worth looking into as well

Do you have some before and after screenshots? Would be interesting to look at the difference

First time I’m hearing of this. Do you have some more details?

I use restic, have also been looking at kopia and borg
