Prompted by a post by @samir at https://mathstodon.xyz/@samir@functional.computer/116651693517871940, I put some old scripts into shape and updated them to the modern era (from XCompose to the "Fcitx 5 input method framework").
The result: the Agda input method you know and love (\to β, \bN β, \forall β, β¦), available globally on your desktop. It should work on all Linux distributions and perhaps also on macOS, though I cannot test that.

CONTEXT:So, in a thread on Piefed, somebody asked me this:how do you personally feel about Pride Month? Particularly, the corporate side of it, the rainbow filters on the brands that historically prosecuted queer identity.
Myself personally I find them turning queer identity into products to consume and collect rather disgusting.
And I wanted to repost my answer here, because I think I managed to express myself quite well and it encapsulates some thoughts that I have about this topic.
Pride Month is super important for the community. It's both a moment of joy and a moment of open resistance for us. As for the corporate side of it, I take it as an indicator. Like, for example, no matter what, I will never tolerate brands or even fucking sponsorships at my local pride march. That is absolutely out of the question. But companies pandering to specific communities is nothing new. And it's not limited to the queer community.
Corporate pandering, to me, is like a canary in a coal mine.
When it's singing, the air is breathable. So when we have the rainbow logos or the Black Lives Matter corporate post or Black History Month colored logo or whatever, it is a sign that as a whole it would be perceived as, not only unacceptable in the current society to be openly against these things and communities, but is even perceived as marketable and profitable to be openly for these things.
When the canary stops singing, something is wrong with the air, and it's time to get out. So when companies stop doing these things, and instead don't mention them, it's a sign that the wind is turning. That posting open support is deemed risky. That at least a certain part of society is questioning the validity and value of these things
And finally, when the canary is dead, the miners are next. When companies start openly posting against these things, when it becomes marketable and profitable to be openly racist, to be openly transphobic, to be openly homophobic, it's a sign that society as a whole and not just the ruling class, is hostile to these ideals and people.
I hate that it is, and I want to change it, but we live in a capitalist society. Right now, it's the rules of the game. So I'm using capitalism as an indicator of society's acceptance of progressive ideals and hostility towards marginalized groups. Because at the end of the day, I would rather fight against capitalism in a capitalist hellhole where corporate people display their pronouns and say "black lives matter" rather than a capitalist hellhole where corporate people don't do these things.
The canary stopped singing.

@soatok (and also everyone else who reads this)
Thanks a lot for this post. (And it definitely sounds much better than a post from me at 1am ;-)) It cannot be said often enough. I agree: Over here people follow you because they think you're interesting at the least. I follow many critters because I think they're not only interesting but lovely people. Even if I did nothing more so far but click the "Follow" button. For one thing I'm kinda shy-ish -- I need some "thing" to respond to in order to open a conversation. The other thing is mere time. I simply don't get round to interacting much more than the bit I do right now. But I'm always open-heartet and willing to start new conversations with any of my followers/followed. So simply give me a howl (or whatever is appropriate to you) and I'm happy to say hi and see how the contact may evolve. Even if the "chemistry" between you and me is not "good enough" to allow for continues and intense contact ("bonding" with me in this way can be pretty tricky I'm afraid), please know that I appreciate your contact, otherwise I wouldn't follow you.

By the way, I know a lot of folks struggle with mental heatlh in various ways, so:
Know that the fact that people interact with you at all, and are part of your life even in very loose ways, means your presence matters and you're irreplaceable.
It won't always feel like it, but people do appreciate you. Most just don't know how to express it very well, and no one really does a good job of teaching that. I'm no better than anyone on this point.
But really, whatever community you have is irrefutable evidence that you're not alone. They're the ones that will appreciate you.
There's no incentive structure to Fedi. Nobody follows you just to increase some metric or trick you into following back to win some game tied to capitalism here. They follow you because you're interesting or cool. Or both.
This probably doesn't help with the myriad other, more material causes for your suffering. Money be damned.
But you'll never be alone if you don't want to be. And it can get better.

stop being stubborn and increase your computer's default font size. magnify that web page you're reading a bit
maybe try a different display font, most things default to sans fonts these days but I personally find serifs much easier to read, especially at, ahem, bigger font sizes
also, if light mode hurts your eyes, there's a significant chance the problem is that you bought a new monitor that gets 10x brighter than your old monitor and you turned it up to 100% brightness out of habit

I'm recovering from a cold after work travel and my fever dreams were remarkably uninteresting.
In one, I apparently incurred the wrath of the entirety of Math Nerd Fedi and ended up being mentioned by name in a rant by a Fields Medalist upon accepting their medal. I don't know what Dream Soatok did to incur this wrath, but knowing me, it was probably a dumb joke about the Hairy Ball Theorem.
In the other, my plush toys refused to cuddle with me until I admitted I was a good boy.
I contain multitudes, apparently.

A frustrating thing about GNOME is how it seems to want to shield you from technical details, hide them, as if they looked at MacOS and thought "on MacOS, technical details don't matter and so are hidden. therefore we should also hide technical details, so that they will not matter". But it is still Linux, so the technical details still matter, they very much matter. And GNOME hid them.
Anyway once again I find myself now reading the arch wiki despite not using arch.
