I used to do that and it has helped me quite a bit. Now I know what distro's are good and I can bring up embedded systems much faster and what needs to be packaged.
I also have to have a particular font and color or it would be difficult to focus. Not sure why. Also if I use dark mode I start getting a headache. Not able to figure why it is so.
I don't know if you ever read is but I'm really curious to know what font you're talking about.

For Gvim my go to is Inconsolata font with white background. Similar case with the console.
Dark mode for some reason is very difficult for me and gives me a headache after sometime or makes my head heavy. It is strange because previously I used to use dark mode without any issues and was preferred. Later I switched to lighter/white background with dark foreground.
Well, then you’ll be a leet neovim ninja, and you can hack text like no other. Don’t be so hard on yourself. :)
I had a serious problem with colorscheme tinkering so I decided to use no syntax highlighting and I've never been happier.

To me that’s like coding with one hand.
Fair enough hahaha
My solution: Stick with Fedora and Visual Studio Code, because I've spent at least 100 hours in the past month checking out Neovim, getting my first init.lua to work, messing around with configurations, making telescope work, make telescope look good. Then switched to Arch, try bspwm, Gnome, KDE, fonts.
Meanwhile, my fellow junior colleague is flexing all over me his Docker knowledge, his experience in unit testing and CI/CD, and generally things people actually pay you for.
