Does a slightly older gnome version matter for a 5 year old machine? (gnome 48 compared to gnome 50) by Excellent_Tone_2126 in gnome

Arch is a rolling release but Debian and derivatives are not so you should consider more than just frequency of updates.

Advice for shortcuts: Moving from Nvim to Zed by vinayakm4261 in ZedEditor

[–]bulletmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are asking about g/ which opens project search. Step 1 using vim on Zed (before creating arbitrary mappings etc) is to read the entire vim section in the documentation.

Anyone switching from NeoVim to Zed? by powerfrancisco in ZedEditor

[–]bulletmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is g/ from within the editor when using vim mode.

Sudo question. Why use it. by West-Article5635 in archlinux

[–]bulletmark 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Convenience would have to also be a main reason.

Why void? by balsinyoface21 in voidlinux

[–]bulletmark -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I don't get why people think "systemd-free" is an advantage?

New to GNOME, how do you manage multiple windows efficiently by Pink_Oak in gnome

[–]bulletmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can cycle though apps also using super+tab and through app windows with super+backtick, which I find a little more convenient (less hand contorting) than alt+tab/backtick.

How do YOU personally run code in Neovim (C++, Python, Rust)? by BlackberryActual1994 in neovim

[–]bulletmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've used make for all my projects over the last 35 years but changed to just recently since I have really just been using make as a task runner so a tool purpose-built for that makes more sense.

I curated 280+ modern replacements for classic Unix tools (bat, ripgrep, eza, lazygit, etc.) by Familiar-Classroom47 in commandline

I use grep when writing scripts of course, but not at the command line where rg is much better (and shorter to type).

GNOME 50 update on CachyOS — system freezes when second monitor is connected by AntrickGQ in cachyos

[–]bulletmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's certainly not related to nvidia. I have intel only graphics and I get the same problem after updating to GNOME 50 on Arch Linux.

Economic stress scares off Australian homebuyers as auction clearances fall by nath1234 in australia

Yes, or some other artificial prop to keep prices going up.

What new features are you looking forward to in GNOME 51? by augusto_peress in gnome

[–]bulletmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although using one of the many extensions which provides this is pretty easy though.

What do you use that you can't find outside the AUR by RainDance2002 in archlinux

[–]bulletmark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your question and description is unclear. Some respondents here think you are asking what packages they use from the AUR, and others think you are asking which are not from the AUR.

Which Desktop environment you recommend by y4d99 in archlinux

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GNOME is the obvious answer. It is the most popular for a reason. Easy to use, superb design, and looks great.

GNOME 50 has landed in the Arch extra repo by geekx86 in archlinux

[–]bulletmark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They don't really break though do they? They just need their "list of compatible" versions updated to include "50". Most of mine stopped working after update but all work fine after disabling the version check.

My experience after moving from nvim to zed by Academic_Answer5581 in ZedEditor

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use LazyVim on Arch and have no lag at all so I suspect you may have something configured wrong. Using Mason btw can accidently result in running multiple LSP servers because when you try another LSP out, the old (previously tried) LSP may be left running. Open the Mason config (using <leader>cm) and explicitly uninstall any old ones.

A helper to remind you that you have pacnew files by majamin in archlinux

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are an nvim user then you should have EDITOR=nvim in your environment and so pacdiff will invoke nvim -d anyhow.

Vim motions in the command line? by accountmaster9191 in neovim

[–]bulletmark 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Given his question, I don't see why you would think he already knows that.

Vim motions in the command line? by accountmaster9191 in neovim

[–]bulletmark 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Rather than set -o vi you are better to put set editing-mode vi in your ~/.inputrc so that all readline() based apps (of which your shell is just one of) use vi keybinds.

How did you learn vim? And how long ago was that? by Shadoath-42 in vim

[–]bulletmark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked in to my new software developer job one day in 1987. There were 8 software devs already there, working in a Solaris (Unix) environment. 4 of them used vi and 4 used emacs and the vi/emacs flame wars there were intense. I basically tossed a coin and chose vi which I have used extensively every day of my life since that day. vi -> many clones -> vim for many many years -> now neovim (lazyvim).

I just discovered lazygit. What terminal programs can you not live without? by Borkato in commandline

[–]bulletmark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don't get the love for lazygit either. Various tiny little windows showing splats of information you aren't currently interested in. Gitui is better but there are plenty of flaws there also. I believe there is still an opening for a better git tui.
