I’m bored and want to practice my Rust skills. I am the creator of open-tv. If you have any idea for a linux desktop app, even if it seems quite complex, I will take it.

    An app to manage important config and unit files (fstab, hosts, sysctl, systemd units, …), and present them as settings menu or editor with auto completion and tooltips. Kinda like how VSCode handles settings, where you can use the GUI or a context-aware text editor.

      If you move to OpenSUSE/SUSE you have this via GUI GTK Yast apps. pretty much anything you want to adjust (kernel param, samba, add devices, alter services, etc) is available via GUI

        Yeah, but how about Yast for all??? How about taking what Yast does, and replicating it for Debian-based or Fedora- or Arch-based distros? They all use Systemd and they are all pretty similar in everything, except the package manager, package availability, and release cycles.
