A few circumstances to consider…

If it’s just your own little tool and you don’t intend to share it with others: do whatever you want. SQL or NoSQL or JSON, it doesn’t matter. Use your own judgement.

In my experience tho most homegrown JSON-based “databases” tend to load all data into the memory, simply because they are very simplistic (serialize everything into JSON and write to disk, deserialize everything into a struct). If your dataset is too big for that, just go straight for a full-fledged database.

Lmao, so we just gonna ignore the people complaining x11…

I am curious, why is Avahi considered bad? Never used it so I am unfamiliar with the topic.

Is it because of missing firmware? From the Arch wiki on ALSA:

sof-firmware is required for some newer laptop models (mainly since 2019) because they implement their drivers with firmware provided by the Sound Open Firmware project.

That idiom is intuitive as heck though, I like it
