AT 5 years of experience, I was the same as you. One of my favorite ways of avoiding work was tweaking my window manager (Enlightenment) and polishing my library of custom scripts and aliases.
Twenty some years later, I’m more like the person you replied to. I leave things pretty much at their defaults and install as little software as possible because when things break, it’s easier to troubleshoot and find solutions when the environment isn’t heavily customized. It’s also easier to set up (or reset) a computer.
