What if my PC boots straight into Vim? It's not like I need anything else, can do everything in Vim

Jokes aside, vim as PID 1 is just a bad idea.

Emacs on the other hand: https://github.com/emacs-os/el-init

That's a great idea from GitHub user el-sloppo and Claude.

Did you read the retrospective.md

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

AI;DR

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then you obviously didn't read it.

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes. That's literally what I said.

That settles it. Emacs is better than Vim

I bet this comment actually pissed off some people. Lol
