I fell into a hole where Spotify just couldn't recommend me things that I didn't know that I wanted. I ended up building a little app that selects a random album based upon genre, related artist, or something reviewed by a publication.

Youtube recommends far more dangerous stuff.
This is a perfect time to re-read his rant about Google vs Amazon and dogfooding.
Justin Falcone has a fantastic talk about the importance of HyperCard. He did all the slides in HyperCard and he gets super into it.
There sorta is. Install the OpenVPN app, load your ovpn config, and connect. After you do that, there will be a VPN option on the homepage of your settings that will use the connection automatically and will keep you connected when switching networks.

TBF that is non standard behavior and won't work everywhere.
I wish I could have gone to Hack The North. I did meat some students from Waterloo at MHacks and did some awesome projects.
I'd love one: eligundry@gmail.com
I use Manjaro[0] because it's got all the advantages of Arch (rolling release and AUR for pretty much any package you'd need) with none of the setup time. I use the XFCE version, which, if you weren't aware, is one of the most stable DEs ever. I've yet to have it crash on me in the three years I've been using it. Also, all the keyboard shortcuts are modifiable, so you shouldn't have any problems with it.
To replace Alfred, I use Synapse[1]. It doesn't have as many features as Alfred, but it does allow for shell commands to be run from it.
iTerm2 is the gold standard when it comes to terminal emulators. TBH, no console really comes close to it. In my experience, the only one that is even comparable is Konsole, which is for KDE. Installing it on a non KDE DE requires a lot of other KDE packages and looks like garbage in it, so I wouldn't recommend do that. I find that Terminator[2] is perfect for my needs when paired with Tmux.

Loving it so far! Great job.
One small request, though. It'd be awesome to collapse comment threads. Any chance of that happening?
Edit: Nevermind. You have the comments setup so you only see the top level and have to tap to see the child comments. Don't think I've seen that before but I dig it.
Disclaimer: I haven't used Yii2, but did work a few years ago with Yii1. All I remember about it was the lack of decent documentation and libraries, grammatical errors on the home page, and frustrating config setups.
It seems that they fixed most of these problems. But Symfony/Zend/Laravel have had these problems fixed for longer and have better communities. If you're gonna use a PHP framework, you're better off with a more mature one.
This is exactly what I've been looking for in a Vim plugin manager.
1. Loading plugins as needed! I've been doing this manually in my Vim config, but this makes it way easier. 2. Custom dir names for plugins! I think I opened up an issue on Vundle a few years ago asking for this (I think) but this has it out of the box. 3. Install hooks! I can't even describe how happy this makes me.
I'll probably install this next time I'm at my Linux box.
