Why is it called 'cozy'?

I've spent a lot of time tweaking this setup to be just the way I like it, so now this setup feels very personal, comfortable, and cozy.

Why write this with Awesome and not a "proper" UI framework?

I started out making simple things like a fancy bar and then over the course of a year it slowly but steadily turned into whatever this is. I'm in too deep. Also, AWM is unbelievably easy to use and development with it is really, really fast, and since this is just a hobby and this stuff has nothing to do with my career skillset, starting over with a different framework would be a waste of time.

(NOT A BUG) You Totally Should Check Out Anytype

First love the setup, looks great and the code is rock solid to go with it. Also love Santa Cruz, spent time with the local homeless kids there the week I walked up Mount Henry and then back down (long story, very Central Coast hippie but I live life as it comes as a religious principle that's not important but something I am aware makes me seem crazy, maybe I am that's fine)

Your organization dashboard is awesome, don't get me wrong, but the program Anytype as it seems right up your alley in terms of features and functions, which probably has some AUR package but I use NixOS and things are different with packages (I love adding unnecessary complexity to my life what can I say...), has a mobile app so you never have to escape obsessive organization where ever you are and is almost in the same color scheme you use. Were I not already settled on using topical and repository-specific Markdown "notebooks" backed up with Git and Dropbox and weary of having an all-in-one workspace given the tendency to spend more time documenting my life than living it when I have tried as much, I would move to using it myself. My experimenting with it indicates it is a far better and lighter-weight/more responsive Notion experience with a better way of integrating templates to actually save time and not just sell crap on Gumroad.

Even if its not your thing, just thought I would shoot the idea your way. Keep up the great work!

[Request] Global settings for 1366x768 monitor

Hi, i want to know if there is a way to get this settings working in 1366x768 monitors?

The dashboard is to big and impossible to get working!

[Issue] SysTray & Focused Monitor

Good morning, my good friend Garado. I have tested the current configuration, and I am very happy with everything you have done! I wanted to say that I find two small issues.

• There is no systray, so you can't display apps like discord, telegram, spotify, etc.
• The widgets open on the second monitor, and not on the main monitor, although a better solution, would be to have them open on the monitor where the cursor is!

keynav not found

local nav = require("modules.keynav").navigator

Is that a link to a git repo? I could not find it.
