weird. I just use kakoune-lsp, and it works just fine out of the box, spare bit of copypasting from the readme on their github.

I really like that i have to put in no effort for Helix to work, but unfortunately its just too rigid for me.

And it also backs down on kakoune’s philosophy, returning back the necessity of selection mode. It really frustrates me in this aspect. Kakoune’s more heavy reliance on modifier keys seems way more handy and sensible to me. Helix’s way just creates unnecessary complications, and feels like a change for the sake of a change.

I use kakoune btw

my fedora is bigger and my neckbeard is longer :D

helix is good, but kakoune is where all the fun happens

Pardon, but some people want to eat shit and watch others do it. Some people still use facebook. I don’t judge them. But won’t be happy if they showed up and told me that i must do it as well.

And those features being what exactly? A small chat window drop-out so your lazy ass won’t need to open an ai chat in a tab? This is absurd.

At least they give you a choice of enabling/disabling that functionality

lmao. That’s how we got Windows as enshittified as it is now.

lmao. You fail to beat the fanboy allegations with this comment. At this point you literally look like the guy from the meme in my eyes.

and again with the misuse of the word “propaganda”, this time topped off with the most basic demagogic manipulation i’ve seen in a while, comparing me to corpos, trying to… What exactly? Is the last paragraph there to make me feel bad? Because it provides no logical counter-argument to what i said. Sorry, but i’m too autistic to be ragebaited.

You’re the one, making claims without supporting them with any proof.

My claim is that firefox gets worse by adding the features nobody asked for, spending time and money for their development, purely out of FOMO of the AI hypetrain, while struggling to implement actually relevant modern technologies such as WebGPU. AI can be a useful instrument, but if i ever want to use it, i’d use specialized tools for that, and look for them at specialized places.

Firefox will grow from a browser into a broader ecosystem of trusted software. Firefox will remain our anchor. It will evolve into a modern AI browser and support a portfolio of new and trusted software additions.

a quote from Enthony Enzor-Demeo, the current CEO of Firefox.

I like how you treat any rumors you don’t like as propaganda, implying ill intent, as well as call people morons for not trusting yet another corpo.

I personally use firefox for now, because i’m too lazy to set up synchronization between devices myself in an opensource browser.

The fact that they’re slightly better than their competitors is not a reason to fanboy over them and put a blind eye over their slow but steady shift towards enshittification.

except firefox is also part of a problem

well, it apparently was an issue for me on Mint, when i just switched from windows.

I might misremember things, but i believe some Microsoft stuff was inside PPA, so for someone just switching from windows it’s actually more likely to delve into the apt fuckery.

Noob distro btw

lol, didn’t know that

Try out fedora if you ever get tired of snaps and other bs.

Otherwise, if it works, good for you

except it doesn’t. Fixed release model quite easily gets in a way of doing shit. Need to add a PPA into config for each separate package you need the latest release of, or simply because the package itself is absent in the normal repo doesn’t help either. And don’t get me started on troubleshooting after “doing shit”.

Something like fedora does a much better job if you prefer fixed release, but if you like to experiment and “do shit”, arch derivatives like Endeavor or Cachy are just better suited for you. All of the above also have a much nicer documentation than Mint.

I believe that people recommending Mint do so only because they once heard that it was a noob distro themselves. When i first switched to linux, i had lots of issues with it. I especially struggled with troubleshooting. EndeavorOS was my second, and it was perfect for me until i discovered CachyOS.

kubuntu and mint are basically the same, spare the desktop environment. I think something like Fedora, EndeavorOS plus CachyOS and Bazzite for gamers sounds more fair of a possible suggestion list. Unlike Mint, all of those have comprehensive wiki, Fedora and Bazzite for those preferring fixed release, and EOS and CachyOS for rolling-release.

ah yes, the “don’t be evil” corporation

same as most of professional terminology that made its appearance in everyday vocabulary

also, cups and plates are not equal topologically, because a cup has handle with a hole in it, and plate doesn’t

welcome to topology

is it tho? Or youtub is just profitable enough to neglect the compute overhead cost?
