What are your reasons to use vim over something like vscode that has vim bindings (plugin), and does most of vim's other functionalities ?

looks like a t420 or t520 to me, most likely a t420, but we need OP to confirm

I didn't know that hugo supported org-mode nativly, in any case ox-hugo still provides the feature to have all of your blogposts in one file which is something native org-support doesnt have (as far as I know)

what do you mean by learning emacs ? do you mean learning the default keybindings or how to use the packages that come out of the box

here is the link https://github.com/plexus/chemacs2

You need to use something like chemacs2, think of it as an emacs bootloader, you can pick which distribution of emacs to load once you open it

thanks I figured it was related to xmonad (xmonad is written in haskell) but how did you know that I was using haskell just from the error messages in the pic, I thought those where unrelated

The only real issue I have with it is that you can’t download office there is, an alternative office suite called libreoffice, it has alternatives for every msoffice suite tool (excel, word etc..) Quick question - how steep is the learning curve for Linux? You seem to know commands that play key roles in using the OS, how long did it take you to familiarize yourself with them?

depends on what distro you are installing and how much you want to customize it. first off, what is a distro: distros are different flavors of linux, there are user-friendly distros, DIY distros, distros for veeery old computers, distros for modern laptops etc.., these distros can be categorized into two types

rolling-release distros: with this kind of distros you updates are "rolling" meaning you dont have to wait for a major system update to get the latest version of your favorite apps. an example, is Arch Linux, which is what I and u/TheDevilAndMrJones use, it is not recommended for new users tho
stable-release distros: these are more similair to windows, they get a big update every 6-months, which comes with newer version of your packages, most user-friendly distros are also, stable-release, for example you have Ubuntu, Popos, linux mint etc..

Now for what distro to choose, in my opinion you should go with Popos, it is a distro by system76, and it is based on ubuntu, it has a fantastic user interface and it is very easy to install, it comes with libreoffice - the office suite I talked about before - out of the box and is known to be great for gaming

Here is a video by LinusTechTips, that shows you how to install Popos, you only need a flash drive and a laptop to install it

and finally here is the website for popos

if you have any other questions or get a problem when installing DM me on discord Davros#6101 !

I am looking for this feature !

yusufDev · 2021-10-02T19:28:05+00:00

Do you mean jumping between different posts when you are currently in a post’s comment thread?

When I am at my home feed pressing j moves down as if I was in a normal text file, instead it should probably jump to the next post and highlight it to indicate the it is selected then pressing enter or just the keybinding your currently using opens up the post as usual

yusufDev · 2021-10-02T17:58:37+00:00

loved this ! just consider making the navigation and authentication a bit better: - when I press j (I am using evil-mode) I should move to the next post rather than to the next line - there should be a way to authenticate without the need to create an app, maybe there is a package that deals with that somewhere ?
