At the same time, managing three Macs is becoming a bit burdensome.
After 15 years, I switched away from #iTerm2 and towards #WezTerm which allows hot-reloaded dotfiles-style configuration.
Together with #GnuStow, a simple `git pull` is enough, and the terminal is in sync!
Really love this, and feel like more apps should offer this kind of configuration (at least developer tools). Synchronizing plist preferences is a pain.

I haven't switched my distribution since I started using #GnuStow to manage my dotfiles. I installed stow, pulled my repo, and everything worked as expected. I love this setup!

Replaced GNU stow by git bare repo as described https://dev.to/bowmanjd/store-home-directory-config-files-dotfiles-in-git-using-bash-zsh-or-powershell-the-bare-repo-approach-35l3
I never learned stow and a simple alias fixed all my needs.
alias dtf='git --git-dir=$HOME/projects/vyskocilm/dotfiles/ --work-tree=$HOME'
