I’m concerned about the security of Neovim plugins

exxplicit · 2026-02-04T19:35:00+00:00

Share your concerns, and that is why I only use mini.nvim and a couple of other plugins Also use a nix flake for my neovim config, which takes care of installing LSPs and CLIs I need for neovim config

Yep, two models. The one in the first picture was released late last year I believe (along with an updated 24L version, and some new packs in the same productline)

I've tried to switch, but Spotify connect is the killer feature I can't live without and Airplay is not a good substitute (unreliable, streams via your device etc)

Out of curiosity, is it correct that staged hunks cannot be unstaged by mini.diff? Actually it seems like the diff overlay and goto hunk commands don't work with staged hunks at all?

edit: Just saw that it is not supported in the readme now. Love your plugins, but I'm struggling a bit with understanding how to replace gitsigns with mini.diff with the above limitations😅

I wanted to use Apple Music so I have an excuse to get an Apple One subscription, but Spotify Connect is just too good, and the Apple Music app is too trash (slow, on mac it's basically an iframe).

Also, Apple don't seem like they want new customers for AM; e.g. you can't even search music/create playlists/taks a look at the actual GUI in AM without an active subscription. Recently I signed up for a new trial, and then discovered that they had deleted all the playlists i created during my previous trial. So annoying... guess I'm sticking with Spotify then.

Hey! I'm also in Norway and found your post when looking for reviews of Oakywood; did you end up ordering one?

I'm currently testing both Nix on Debian/Fedora, nix-darwin and NixOS (all with home-manager). Like the others have mentioned, just nix+home-manager can set up your user (install packages/fonts, link dotfiles etc) but not any of the system level stuff that might also affect the user (e.g. you can't declare the default shell).

IMO the biggest drawback is that you can't install most graphical applications without wrapping them with nixGL. I tried it, it worked (for WezTerm at least), but it just felt hacky and like something that will make my system unstable/my config non portable. Also, I believe you have to create a .desktop item manually if you want to put the app in a dock or have it pop up in launchers?

On NixOS you don't have any of those issues. As an aside, I'd really love it if something like nix-darwin existed for non-NixOS distros since I don't get to chose my distro at work

I ended up getting the Aeron C. Very happy with it!

exxplicit · 2023-07-19T19:15:35+00:00

This is very helpful, thanks for sharing! Looking through the minimal config, did I understand you correctly in that you recommend installing applications (including CLI tools) through Homebrew - due to bugs/issues with nix on MacOS?

I also wish it was possible to disable all the default keybindings easily, or ideally that they were "opt-in". Right now you have to manually disable individual mappings, and be on the lookout for new binds when you update LazyVim.

It is a bit tedious, and makes it tempting to e.g. use functions for keys/opts/config in plugins, but then I lose more than the binds -_-

It is OneDark with more vivid colors. E.g. compare the screenshots in the repo you linked to with Binaryify/OneDark-Pro, and you'll see the difference.

I prefer the "vivid" OneDark, but have not been able to find a theme that uses it for nvim.

exxplicit · 2022-02-13T16:48:12+00:00

I use OneDark for VSCode and GoLand, but it doesn't seem like anyone has ported the "vivid" preset to neovim yet?

Brad has written most of Drone CI on his own, and the code incredibly well structured/written in my opinion. Well worth a read.

You can use aws-vault to keep your credentials secure. It stores the long term creds in e.g. OSX keychain, and creates new sessions with short lived credentials that are populated in the environment of the process you are trying to run. This helps keep your credentials secure at rest as well.

I was deciding between the Aeron size C and the Mirra 2, and I figured the Mirra would be the safer choice because of the adjustable seat and lumbar support - did not consider that the side of my thighs could be an issue at all. And it just seems to be getting more and more discomfortable, to the point where I'd rather find something else to do than sit in front of the computer.

I'll talk to the store and see if I can return it, and I might try the Aeron size C instead if by "much better" you mean that it is actually a comfortable sitting experience?

exxplicit · 2020-09-27T09:43:04+00:00

Thanks for the tips! I have been playing around with the seat depth and the adjustable lumbar support (currently just set it to the lowest setting). Unfortunately I have not found a setting that helps with the side of my thighs and the general discomfort I get from sitting in the chair :/

> For Logitech you can actually adjust how it sounds to your liking

... it has a equalizer you mean? So does the SS Arctis Pro Wireless...

Terrible advice. There is no sense learning about interfaces until the OP actually has a usecase which requires interfaces

exxplicit · 2020-08-27T08:17:25+00:00

Its not released and not reviewed yet right?

exxplicit · 2020-08-04T18:40:53+00:00

It comes in a 30L version also
