you’re right

This has gotta be the best explanation of Emacs’ appeal I’ve seen yet, out of many.

Have u considered writing them?

Anyway, ULauncher looks very good to me as a Raycast alternative.

I’ve done lots of searching and Reddit comments about what makes Emacs so appealing. I think Emacs users like the specific ecosystem and things it offers and they put in the work to tailor it for them. Consistently is one thing I hear. Tell me ur thoughts.

I don’t find anything appealing about it over Neovim + TUIs and keyboard navigation in GUI apps, including hints: https://github.com/AlfredoSequeida/hints.

For instance, I can’t download completely youtube pages with videos using wget, but can with pywb (though pywb has issues with sites like reddit).

Not that I would necessarily use it for youtube pages, but that’s an example of a complex page with lots of AJAX.

Doesn’t work well for more complex sites.

except one time when I knocked a cup of water into one in 2005.

This but repeatedly for some people. I only drink from my metal bottles, and turn away from my computer. Admittedly I could be more careful by moving away from the computer but now its been years since it happened.

DId u read the post? I’m on a MBP so I would dual boot to macOS (it’s not possible to run windows on it rn without a VM).

That hasn’t really happened with macs even up to several years old with those parts irreplaceable, by the time that would happen the device should be replaced.

Yes replaceable parts would be better but the ones on Macs do in fact last a very long time.

Unfortunately it doesn’t work on ARM devices right now.

GrapheneOS is not your typical android image … and that’s why its great!

All of them are pushing generative AI that many users don’t want and you have to manually opt out on Windows and Mac.

“I can’t delete bloatware” - all 3 of them

It was like watching a scene from an episode of a reality TV show from the early 2000s.

That’s not a coincidence.

No I don’t want tiling, I want windows that can overlap, I just want to control them with hotkeys.

Id say about 90% of folks that push for this dont understand how our immigration/asylum system works other 10% would be hateful racist.

It feels like the percentages are the other way around.
