What is something you want to use, yet are NOT using?

For me, I really want to get into niri, but the lack of XWayland support scares me (I know there’s solutions, but I don’t understand them yet).

Also, I stopped using Emacs (even though I love its design and philosophy with my whole heart) because it’s very slow, even as a daemon.

My TV. *arr stilll not set up and the gaming rig is still in its planning phase.

Same, niri. Want to move away from hyprland for so long. Also Emacs but I don’t want to spend months configuring.

Also a foss android distro, but I can’t find one for this phone.

there are also lots of other things like common lisp, Redox OS, cosmic desktop, trying to make my own compositor, rope science, activity pub, webtransport, bevy, ecs, and much more.

Also I stopped Using Emacs… because it’s very slow

I’ve been using a mix of Emacs and Neovim and plan to switch completely to Neovim when I have replicated enough of my Emacs config to be comfortable in Neovim. And speed is the main reason why.

Also, qutebrowser. I want to use it but it lacks workspaces support and as a self proclaimed tab hoarder I need my workspaces. I’m also still looking into a pasword manager for it (though I can always just use Bitwarden as an app)

SimulaVR or any Linux VR desktop experience.

I want to lean back and be immersed on the desktop so bad, but only if it is worth the cost (e.g. not trading ever detail of house in ewal time to Facebook …).

I want to learn stenography, but haven’t really got to buying a keyboard designed for it. I also want to host an EteSync server, but the HTTPS thing has been a bit of a headache for me and I’ve mostly just left it sitting there.

There are alternatives if you want to host your calendar and contacts and sync them securely. You could use Radicale and put a reverse proxy in front of it (Nginx Proxy Manager makes it easy to set up and easy to get and renew certificates).

I’ve been using Niri with Xwayland-satellite lately, and it works as a charm. it works out of the box, and you simply run it in background, and launch your X programs with DISPLAY=:0

Do people even wish for a million dollars anymore? Shit doesn’t even buy a home in most cities.

UKI. I’m still using grub because I know how to use it. I will definitely make the switch one day when I have an afternoon free or something.

Neovim. I tried to use it a year ago, but I felt like I was fighting it every time I just wanted to make progress on my project. VSCode doesn’t get in my way. I’m going to give it another shot in a few years.

Haven’t used neovim, but I had to try vim way too many times. I can’t use anything else now.

theshatterstone54 ,

Try kickstart.nvim. I was skeptical until I tried it. It’s a very good starting point for Neovim. Pretty much eberything else I’ve ever tried is either too bloated, too complicated, too outdated, too overwhelming, or a mix of the above. Link: github.com/nvim-lua/kickstart.nvim

I think a lot of the recent AI tools could be fun as toys to play around with, but I’m just very uncomfortable using tech that exploits everyone who doesn’t own a huge megacorp.

Also, emacs as a replacement for my graphical editor. It feels like there isn’t a “neovim” style modern version, and there’s a steep learning curve to configuring it.

Also, Wayland. Come on, Cinnamon. ;_;

If you want something similar to vim or neovim, but without all the fuss learning how to configure it and install plugins and such, you could try helix.

Virtual Machines, but I’m too dumb to figure it out.

To be honest: my PC 🫢I just do not have enough free energy time

Lapce, an IDE written in Rust. It’s nice and light compared to most IDE’s, so I use it a bit on my aging laptop from 2015. However, it doesn’t have the extension ecosystem or polish of my favored IDE, VS Code.
