Not needed since we can just reference the background directly instead.
Note that the linking actually occurs in the modules for the DEs that
add backgrounds since it isn't part of the defaults.
There is currently a bug where yazi crashes since it tries to create
directories but is unable to due to being managed at the system level.
There is an open PR in nixpkgs, however it's been 3 weeks and it hasn't
been merged yet.
This is a part of making it easier to instantly have access to yazi
without having to worry about using home-manager. Note that this works
for my use case since I don't use Nix on non-NixOS devices and don't
intend to do so anytime soon.
Realistically I want access to htop on any machine running my shell
configuration. Making this NixOS-specific removes some of the dependence
on home-manager as well.
Long-term this should make it easy to include all the GUI programs with
the desktop module and all the CLI programs with the shell module, as
well as the ability to easily disable sets of unneeded packages.
Rainbow parentheses were traditionally buggy with the plugins I used but
nowadays there are newer plugins available that use more flexible
technologies like treesitter.

Useful when wanting to have a little fun with screenshots. Seems to
affect performance of fullscreen applications since those receive some
sort of priority when there are no other visible layers on the screen.
After almost a year of using joshuto, I have decided to switch to yazi.
The latest joshuto update broke my image preview configuration, and it
didn't make sense trying to figure out the issue with yazi already
having built-in image support and more.
Other notable improvements from this change include:
- Simplified configuration since defaults no longer have to be
re-declared
- Faster directory loading, especially for /nix/store/ and symlinks to
/nix/store/
- Text files are more likely to show previews without manual
configuration
- Videos now have working previews again, similar to ranger
