So many awesome AI features, and I just switched to helix /s

Because it eat's GBs of RAM and input lags (it's a Electron browser), i switched to Kate. Thanks to LSP, it's a viable alternative and surprisingly lightweight. Has git integration and symbol outline and all.

I'm wondering what exactly caused so many downvotes? Isn't video about updates to the most popular programming editor not suitable for community named "programming"?

AI like another poster said. But I'm sure it being a youtube video has something to do with it too. A lot of us would rather read then watch a youtube video. Some people also dont like youtube and would rather not support it.

Kinda weird, Lemmy community is becoming more and more anti-everything recently 😂

The post references AI. Automatic downvotes.
