No one probably cared but I thought I would update here anyway.
I boarded my flight from RIX with ease. I brought along my suitcase and my backpack I wasn't stopped in any way. I was also asked to weigh my suitcase and it was a bit overweight as a hand carry luggage but the check in agent also didn't ask me to drop anything or make it a checked baggage, so I counted myself quite lucky here.
The flight was a bit delayed but otherwise it was perfectly fine. I was surprised about the legroom on the Dash 8. I tried OV's E70 and AY/BE's ATR and they offer very limited legroom, whereas on the Dash it is very generous!
