Meh, I just load up manjaro with XFCE and call it a day. Not much fiddling involved, very little about the user experience that I don't like. Only thing I ever really tweaked was running a more up-to-date kernel for an…

I find undo-tree to be super useful in rare occasions, thanks to undo-tree-visualizer-toggle-diff bound on d. The quick diffs can be pretty darn helpful with complex changes.

To be fair, they're the largest non-pornographic video platform. Making them an endless target for any and all abuse possible to grow channels quickly and earn ad revenue. It's inevitable that in such an environment the…

I just used (and still use) org-mode to track todos & projects, as well as keep time that was spent on each task. I tried not to over complicate my task keeping, because I've always been more worried about getting the…
Feature minimalism is a good thing to strive for usually. Wrote my own dirt simple lazy loader & slider libraries, because I didn't need many of the features other libs had. On the flip side, if I need a reasonably…

Nah, I just spam M-x butterfly for 8 hours and then go home. No need to hold 3 modifier keys.
Even as an emacs user, the answer is generally "No, I don't really use the function keys". I mean, you're right that I use them to change brightness or change volume. But the touch bar can still do that, so... Meh. It…

I think it genuinely depends on what your users are nostalgic over. You can look cutting edge while taking advantage of nostalgia. To be entirely honest, the "flat design" doesn't look "cutting-edge". It looks basic,…
