That's super easy to fix with tools like entr. That's what I use when I write Markdown documents so I can automatically generate the plain text file to a PDF document using Pandoc, and preview it simply by saving the file in Neovim. :)

    AFAIK. All major clients for XMPP is open source and gratis.

    Two good options for Android is Conversations and Snikket. Both are available on F-Droid and Google Play Store. Conversations on GPS is a donationware version though.

    On iOS you have Snikket and Monal.

    On the desktop you have Gajim. I think it's available for Linux, Windows and Mac OS.

    You also need an account. Conversations offers accounts for free over at https://account.conversations.im/. There's probably a lot more services as well.

    If I didn't know anything about Linux, and had Linus Tech Tips as my main source of knowledge in regards to Linux, I would have considered Linux to be a toy novelty project at best.

    Linus Tech Tips should focus on what they're good at, which is, err... Well. I bet they're good at something. Perhaps making noodles or something?

    Software piracy is the very reason that Microsoft got all the market share and had the power to ruin it for Linux.

    Either pay for the software, use free alternatives or write your own software.

    There's always pyinfra.

    However. The easiest solution is probably a custom shell script that checks which OS it is and does different things based on that. It doesn't have to pretty as long as it works for you.

    Edit: Why do you keep reinstalling your operating system?
