How is the latency btw? I SSH to a beefy box that sits under my table and sometimes I hate the latency of running emacsclient over X. But I am not using VIM and I don't use terminal emacs because of clipboard integration betweeen remote emacs and local desktop. I know there are hacks to make clipboard sync between local and remote emacs sessions without running emacs over X11 forwarding, but I always found those to be janky..
- speedgoose 5y agoIt's very good. The rendering and inputs are done locally. Completion, compilation, linting, and other things are done remotely but they are not instant anyway so the network latency is not really noticeable. I use Github Codespaces with a Vscode and vscode-neovim. Neovim is running locally.
- vineyardmike 5y agonot op, but amazon uses "cloud desktops" with SSH access company wide, and no one really has latency issues there. So its def something supported at some companies... I don't know how many people would want to use graphic applications over the network however, seems like it would be janky
- boardwaalk 5y agoI’ve always thought that remoting to edit text files using X or RDP is doing at the wrong level of abstraction. VSCode editing over SSH works really well in contrast. I think Sublime has a plugin that ain’t bad. Emacs (TRAMP) is probably the worse of the three :/. Terminal Vim or Emacs over Mosh is a pretty good option too.
