I can relate. Open up a page like this [0] in a maximized window on a very wide screen and try to read. I ended up writing a Chrome Extension [1] to narrow/center such pages. [0]: https://www.haskell.org/tutorial/p

Don't forget to mention privacy . Why would I use a browser which is spying on me if there is an alternative that doesn't? Same goes for other software.

I'm very satisfied with the new typing [0][1] module. It's part of the standard library since Python 3.5 and it provides type annotations similar to those of Typescript. It's still missing some features (IMO), but it's

Fantastic! The webpack ecosystem maybe fiddly and overwhelming, but as soon as you have a nice, solid selection of tools wired up and working it becomes very powerful. I'm really excited about the two packages you mention. :D Thank you

Sounds great! I hope it will succeed. The MS cloud is something I prefer to stay away from.

I was on Windows for about 20 years and moved to Linux about a year ago. One thing I happen to like the most in Linux is file-based configuration. If you add a settings-database to Linux you would end up with the same mess that you find in

That is why I stick to OSS like Linux, Thunderbird, nextcloud, etc. as much as possible. I got locked into a closed source platform once and it was a pain to get out of it. I will never let it happen again.

I had an issue with blurry fonts on a high DPI display using Linux Mint 17.3. It was easy to fix and now it runs just fine and became my editor of choice next to my IDE.
