Hi! I came across your post on r/unixporn and wanted to check out your dotfiles. However, I noticed that the repository structure was a bit unusual. All the folders were packed into 7z archives, which made it impossible to view the files directly on GitHub.


Additionally, the screenshots in your README linked to external URLs, which felt a bit odd. Some of them even returned errors when I tried to access them.

I took the initiative to reorganize your repository by extracting all the archives and moving the screenshots into the repository itself, so they can be viewed more easily. During this process, I noticed that some files in the archives had identical names, which caused conflicts. To resolve this, I had to replace some of the duplicate files. I'm not sure if this affected the functionality of your dotfiles, so I recommend double-checking to ensure nothing critical was overwritten or broken.

For the future, I suggest storing files directly in folders rather than archives. This way, people can browse your code on GitHub without needing to download anything.
