Linux has solid built-in accessibility features:

On GNOME:
Settings → Accessibility

You’ll find:
- Screen reader (Orca)
- High contrast mode
- Zoom
- Large text scaling

Accessibility isn’t niche. It’s good engineering.

Running Wayland and something feels off? Try checking:
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

If it says wayland, you’re native. If it says x11, you’re still on X.

Knowing which session you’re in saves a lot of confusion.

If you’re writing shell scripts, start adding this:

set -euo pipefail

It forces your script to:
• Exit on errors
• Fail on unset variables
• Catch broken pipes

Small line. Big reliability boost.

Don't sleep on built-in shell features:

* Ctrl+r for reverse history search
* Tab completion for paths and commands
* Brace expansion: mkdir project/{logs,data,tmp}

Master the shell you already use before adding new tools.
