It's fine. Almost. I'm using neovim as my editor, gnome terminal as my terminal emulator (with bash/tmux) and epiphany for surfing the web - mostly one tab at a time since it can't handle more than that easily.
The thing I like most about this setup is how it keeps my focus centered on a task as there are not many possibilities for distraction. No absent minded web surfing, no binge-watching on YouTube and so on. But every now and then the entire system freezes completely and I have to disable a lot of useful neovim plugins (e. g. LSP).
I did this in college to write essays - a computer which was so old, it could only run a micro distro of linux, where the only "program" was a word processor.
This is making me nostalgic for the "Alphasmart" [1] word processor I had in 8th grade. Such a simple yet powerful device. My favorite part of how "simple" it was: when you wanted to transfer the text to your computer, you hit transfer and it "typed" the characters one at a time until everything was typed. It was fast enough and no programs to install.
