Note: after restoring from a backup make sure to recreate the templates from the base again to save disk space because of copy-on-write.

Follow https://github.com/Qubes-Community/Contents/blob/master/docs/customization/dpi-scaling.md for getting it to work with my 4k display. Went back to a non-4k display.

dom0

Appearance -> Style -> Adwaita-dark

In /etc/qubes/guid.conf:

secure_copy_sequence = "Mod4-c";
secure_paste_sequence = "Mod4-v";

In Qubes 4.1 that no longer works and you need (source):

$ qvm-features dom0 gui-default-secure-copy-sequence 'Mod4-c'
$ qvm-features dom0 gui-default-secure-paste-sequence 'Mod4-v'

Create /usr/local/bin/vault, mapped to ctrl+shift+x

#!/bin/sh
exec qvm-run vault keepassxc

Clock format: %a %F %r

Redshift, following https://www.bryceguinta.me/install-configure-and-autostart-redshift-on-qubes-40.html, except place the config file at ~/redshift.conf so it gets included in dom0 backups and use Settings -> Session and Startup to add the autostart entry.
