No one mentioned vi, I like neovim just fine, and I'm using pi daily. Nice try though. My only point is that if you want to talk about rewriting everything yourself, NIH, churn, whatever you want to call it, Emacs is absolutely not a

The new thing where everyone just vibe codes their own versions of everything is not at all like personalizing Emacs. Specifically the idea that people generally just ignore existing versions of packages and make their own has never been th

Terrible analogy. Emacs has always had comparably fewer major options for packages compared to other tools, there is often an obvious option based on your needs, and it has never been my experience that people decide to just roll their own

You can take modal editing anywhere, but that doesn't mean you should.

There are many better sandboxing options than docker (in terms of security and/or ease of use), and it sounded like you weren't doing sandboxing.

Functionally you can focus any workspace on any monitor, and ids do not change when doing that. You can set things up both ways, but it's actually easier to just have a key focus workspace x on the current monitor than to lock workspac

Hyprland works with nvidia just fine with minimal coniguration, just as well as any other wayland compositor I've tried, and I have a very old card. Having out of date packages is going to be an issue on Ubuntu for software in general

There is also scroll (sway fork) and plugins for hyprland. Scrolling experience was not actually better in niri vs. others in my experience just because it was built around it. I tried to use niri, but there is too much missing functional

Workspaces are not bound to displays in hyprland. This is one major reason I'm using hyprland over niri, where it's not really possible to work around that issue.

There's also focusworkspaceoncurrentmonitor, and anything more complicated can be scripted trivially to be on one keybind.

Keyboard mapping is fine on macOS (though most of those posts seem related to software or functionality I would never use). Keyboard-only experience is a lot more than keyboard mapping. Consider window management, for example. If we'

Kanata supports early tap-hold dispatch based on key overlap, which is all I need. There's an open issue for more advanced conditions: https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/issues/128 The maintainer has been

I never looked at karabiner's full functionality, but kanata is the closest thing to a linux version of QMK. It can kind of be used for hotkeys, but that's really not its purpose. Better to use a separate hotkey daemon. Keyboard

Delays are a terrible solution. Looking at key overlap percentage, for example, works much better. There are a lot of other ways to make dual-use/tap-hold functionality more reliability, but lots of programs actually implement overla

I've tried about ten billion different tools on linux and can confirm that kanata is better than everything else mentioned in this thread and a lot more. It's not the right tool for global hotkeys, so it's not going to compl

I've used both. Mu4e is a lot simpler for email. I plan to eventually switch to Gnus for everything since it handles so much more than just mail (feed reader, hacker news, reddit, twitter, newsgroups, etc.), but mu4e is much easier t

Emacs is not multithreaded, but it has supported async/cooperative threads for a very long time (at least since before I started using it almost a decade ago). Modern packages are generally written to not block while doing something l

Customizability is Emacs' selling point. A higher level of extensibility necessary means a higher learning curve. I'd call it a learning curve rather than "barrier": it's certainly not difficult to make Emacs loo

Janet's approach seems a little strange to me in that it's opt-in rather than opt-out. In CL or Clojure, you just normally can't have this issue due to the package or namespace system (e.g. you have to go out of your way to

Paredit is really not the closest or best comparison. If you want simplicity, lispy is often simpler than or at least as simple as parinfer. At the same time, it's more powerful than paredit. Even if you never used its special keybindi
