I think humanity as a whole can only really start focusing on the real problems once we settle on the Emacs vs neovim debate. It's all about setting the right priorities, right?
- tomcam 3y agoOnly a few people get it. You are in the vanguard, my friend
- bee_rider 3y agoI don’t think anyone cares about emacs vs vim anymore. (Because that would require caring about emacs even a little bit). It is now VSCode vs neovim and it seems like a tough fight.
- gwhl 3y agoClearly! Emacs has won but the fight for the second place is fierce.
- sgtnoodle 3y agoI'm on the verge of converting. I'm sick of vscode using 4-6 CPU cores at 100% when I'm not doing anything.

- sgtnoodle 3y agoI'm conceited enough that lately I've been thinking, "maybe I should just write a text editor. It can't be that hard." I tried a new text editor today that's written in rust. I downloaded the tar.gz and it just had a single executable binary in it It doesn't feel any more responsive than vscode, but at least its rust extension seems to work. I wrote like 20 lines of rust without any borrow checker errors so it was a good day? Back when I worked on space ships, I used gedit and grep. That was before gedit's UI got butchered. Those were the good old days I guess.
- xbar 3y agoneovim. I'm still trying to help my friends work through their guilt over running VScode at all.
- bee_rider 3y agoThat sounds very difficult, if it is even possible. Instead, you should probably just get new friends.
