To add onto this - I'm a huge org-mode user. If you're on iOS I highly recommend BeOrg[1]. It's the best org-mode app for iphones. It's highly extensible on it's own since you can put in settings and run scheme in a

I used to use Evil mode and now I use God-mode[1]. Evil is great, but you end up having to know Vim keybindings and some Emacs keybindings since Evil doesn't cover everything. It certainly can with additional Evil extensions and modify

I totally agree with your statements about Emacs. The readme mentions Emacs and says: "Ox took the idea for the customization and extensibility of Emacs and made a configuration system where you can change the colours and appearance of

I use Discord for mostly non-gaming interests. I'm part of a bunch of music specific discords for example. Lots of specific genre subreddits (/r/rnbheads, /r/popheads, /r/hiphopheads, etc) use Discord.

Discord also has great communities that aren't just for gaming. Personally, I'm part of several discords that are for music, specific technology (thinkpads), etc. To me it just seems like lots of online communities would rather ha

I have a tiny Sony trinitron (I think) CRT. The screen is the size of a banana diagonally. I specifically have it around just for practicing SSBM. Many people nowadays do just use their PC with a good monitor. There are a ton of hacks that

Not OP, but I recommend skipping Spacemacs so that people gain experience with configuration and elisp in Emacs. Having some base level understanding makes understanding other Emacs configurations (like Spacemacs, Doom, Prelude, etc) much e

If you're interested in learning some networking, I recommend Ubiquiti. If you want to save money, I recommend used Ubiquiti. My rationale for buying used is that basically normal consumers typically do not buy Ubiquiti enterprise prod

Holy cow, I never thought about doing that. I think there's a similar thing in Github, I'll definitely check it out.

I do exactly what you recommend. My website, https://cyrialize.dev/ , is hosted on Neocities. I used jekyll to create it and I use water.css which I found on CSS Bed ( https://www.cssbed.com/ ). The Neocities

I think my experience is like this due to opting in to Atlassian's redesign. I've thought about switching back, but I'd rather get used to the design that they're going to force upon everyone anyways.

I wish I could be off of Jira and all of Atlassian. Sadly, that is not my decision to make. Atlassian's antics with Jira, Confluence, and BitBucket have really started to make me mad. Jira is changing it's editor... slowly. The ol

I've been a developer for about 3 years now. This is probably my own fault, but I feel pressured to be constantly doing something towards programming. I feel like I should either be reading a book or starting a project. I have 10+ pr

I'm a big fan of Fastmail. I agree with your point about YouTube. I'll try out the combo you have. I like YouTube for the videos on there and nothing else. I hate all the ads and how if you watch one video that is off topic from w

I have mostly de-googled myself. For search I mainly rely on DuckDuckGo, but as many people have pointed out sometimes DuckDuckGo doesn't cut it. When that happens I either use Google or Startpage. I usually use Google when I want info

I agree with your first point. Learning elisp and becoming comfortable within the Emacs ecosystem is definitely a daunting task, but once you do learn elisp then modifying Emacs to how you want it to be is extremely easy. Other editors requ
