Vim doesn’t care if it’s running in Linux or Windows or macOS

Oh, now this is a shitpost.
Thought about downvoting, then realized it is top-tier.
Vim does care, but it doesn’t want to hurt your feelings.
Vi also cares, but not about feelings.
What does tmux think?
Tmux is feelings and empathy rolled into the terminal multiplexer we never knew we needed.
No, that’s Zellij
Multiplexing
Tmux can make you feel all the feelings simultaneously
Idk if it’s simultaneous, but it definitely makes it really easy to jump between the feelings rapidly
But with Linux, you can init=/bin/vim
Why settle for running vim on your os when vim can just be your os?
✨EXACTLY✨
I like your funny words magic man
you can still start a shell or /sbin/init from within vim, in the odd case you’d need it!
Forget GNU/Linux, VIM/Linux is where it is at.
But say it too loud and we are going to end up with a systemd-vim
systemd-vim gave me nightmares, thanks!!
I’m glad I noticed what community this was posted in before I responded.
da penguin!!!
This is the right answer
Number one, I get to tell people that I use Arch. I could anyway, but this way I’m not lying.
Number two, it’s not Micro$oft or Crapple.
Number three, living in my mother’s basement isn’t as cost effective as I was hoping it’d be so free helps immensely.
If I did daily drive Linux I would probably use arch or Nixos so I could flex
Use NixOS and run Arch in a VM.
….genius
It’s because I use Arch. 😏
Nothing. I hate having control over my personal property.
It’s free and runs stuff good.
- Lighter
- Better on weaker hardware
- More options how you set up your system: Desktop Environments/Window Managers.
- Free and Open Source (so no paying out the arse for Windows).
- More Software options.
- Better Security.
- No monitoring by your OS provider.
Seriously, do people pay for windows? I’ve transitioned one copy I got on my laptop a dozen years ago through a few separate pc builds. And duplicated another key, which was quite easy. The verifications for windows are super easy to bypass by a non-tech intelligent user
do people pay for windows?
Yes. When you buy your computer, the cost of Windows is added onto the computer’s cost. Just for context, a Dell XPS 13 Laptop with Ubuntu preinstalled is £1,149.01, with Windows it’s £1,199.00. When you get the chance to have Linux preinstalled or even just have no OS pre installed, you find it’s cheaper than having Windows Preinstalled.
That’s for laptops, not desktops
It’s the same for desktops. There’s no difference between Operating systems for laptops or desktops. Your can use the same install media for both with little to no difference.
Windows does not come with a desktop, unless you’re buying pre built, in which case you don’t mind spending extra money for the same product
Linux tends to get out of your way to let you get shit done. Windows tends to be a marketing platform for Microsoft products that lets you get shit done.
I don’t see why my office computer needs some xbox app I can’t uninstall.
No spyware, much better performance and wear on your hardware. Actual control over your devices. The downside is, linux is complicated and a pain to learn how to use or maintain. Windows is easy to use but so is a vtech laptop which is essentiallly the trade off. It used to be that windows was easy to use and open as a platform, but microsoft is doing everything in its power to ruin windows. The modern developers also really suck and the modern codebase is buggy as hell. The OS kills your harddisks and ssds, even before the new broekn update because they are constantly scanning your files to send signitures to palantir or whatever. They are removing basic functionality and a few years from now I imagine you wont even be allowed to close or open apps, like with Android. It will just be full of ads and spyware and you will have to pay a subscription to use it or something. People have been jumping ship because at this point continuing to use windows is just going to make your life painful in the future.
What you’re used to is easy, what you don’t know is hard. People are creatures of habit and don’t like change.
Nothing new here.I find Linux far easier to use than anything else because most decent distros come with all the software I want, or it is trivial to install, and it’s all free.
Most of that software is available for Apple or Windows, but it’s a PITA to install. Giant waste of time. And money, of course. And of you install Windows, you gotta manually disable all the shit advertising.
All of that without needing the command line, even.
MacOS software is extremely easy to install. Drag package icon from mounted drive (with auto popup) to Applications.
It’s even easier with Brew: have terminal window open, type
brew install librewolf& if MacOS complains,xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/LibreWolf.app(for example to get a nice bland browser without corporate spyware). Every now and then,brew upgrade librewolf.I didn’t even want to bring up brew, which is also great. I know it’s cool to hate on MacOS, but for both “getting shit done” and mostly “just working” (drivers, etc) I think MacOS is the best intersection of those needs. The hardware is also easily the best available.
Lmfao. You people dont even listen to yourselves
“Its even easier here. Just open a console and type in gibberish”
This is not a thing outside of linux.
After this last windows 10 update, now windows hangs on cryptographic service. There’s no fix for this shit and no hope to fixing my computer… My HDD…but I restart boot my default OS Linux on its own SSD from Grub. If I want to go suffer I reboot into the piece of shit windows system. So that’s the appeal of Linux.
It’s free. What is vim?
An Emacs clone.
Which is a nano clone.
Which is a Windows Notepad clone
A bad emacs clone
it’s like visual studio bro
Vi improved
