suckless software is minimalist in the best way possible, you don't have to worry about having all this stuff that you don't need. Sometimes It is a bit too minimalist, (like older builds of st didn't have scroll back) but more often than not those missing features that you might need often have a have a patch for them, and you can just add things to your program as you need them. The software really becomes your own at that point, because you are directly editing it's source code. It's a blank canvas waiting to be customized to your needs. It's the kind of thing I didn't know I needed until I actually tried it. It's really nice to just build things from the ground up.
Do you know a way how to make nerd-fonts bigger in st? I see you don't use lsd nor exa. My current font settings are font 1: Hack,size 11 and font 2: hack mono nerd size 16. It seems to print emojis in size 16 but not nerd-icons. Why you chose QB over Surf browser? Would be nice if you made more frequent blogposts since I added you into my newsboat. Are you good in Rust? Do you consider helping with Cosmic DE or Redox OS?
Look here to see what patches I use: sr.ht/~bpv/st/ For scrollback, I just use the default scrollback patch: st.suckless.org/patches/scrollback/st-scrollback-0.8.5.diff
Is it possible to just turn on scroll lock and use arrow keys with the scrollback patch without doing anything else, or is that an extra thing to configure

I use the st terminal with some patches included and I never had any trouble with it ! Love suckless software

why don't you just describe which patches you are using (for example there are several scrolling patches. Which one?)?

Wasn't there this issue with emojis crashing st because of some library? Did you have to do anything special on void to make it work?
I use the Symbola font which allows non-colored emojis to be displayed on st, dwm, dmenu, etc.
Thanks again for your instructional and simple videos. How do you change the red color of the executables programs when you execute ls ?
I use zsh as my shell which allows syntax highlighting for commands.

From what I assume, that would have to be configured.
