Curious about how many Vim/Neovim plugins you’re rocking? 🤔 Jump into your terminal, navigate to your Vim or Neovim configuration directory, and run this command: ls -alp | wc -l. I currently have 41 plugins, but I’m aiming to slim down to 30-35. How about you? Share your plugin count below! ”

@seve_py @tartley When I redid my config of about 6 months from scratch, I ended up with way fewer plugins than before. There truly were a good amount that I just installed for fun or that I quickly got used to not having (sometimes leading me to use more idiomatic practices). It’s a good thing to try every now and then, free time permitting. But there’s also no harm in having a bunch of plugins you like!

I'm a long-time Linux user, and I've started using Windows 11 for work and…

It's basically fine?

There are no adverts in it that I can see. Multi-monitor support works. Lots of the deeper settings still retain their Win98 look & feel. Window snapping isn't quite as advanced as Wayland, but quite acceptable.

About the worst thing I can say is that it moans my 40W USB-C charger isn't powerful enough. But it charges well enough.

Doesn't seem remarkably different from XP TBH.

@Edent It had a rough start, then it became okay for a while, and now to me it feels like it just gets worse every update. This copilot thing is a UX nightmare that barely provides any functionality and my W11 copy on my work laptop just accumulates random issues like super slow explorer startup and my entire PATH being reset after installing something over winget???? (granted it’s infant software but how the heck…)

Who are these people that supposedly prefer to rent? The only good thing about renting is that, in theory, if something breaks its someone else's problem to get it fixed. But in practice what happens is that you now have an obnoxious middle man in between you and getting the problem fixed and they can just decide fixing it isn't one of their priorities and you just get to deal with shit being broken

So who. Who actually enjoys renting when they intend to stay somewhere long term? Feel like this is just some bullshit landlords came up with to justify why renting is okay and people fell for their propaganda

@eniko It can be nice to essentially “try out” living in a certain area or with a certain level of accommodation. But that really only works if you have the privilege/up-front capital to support an experiment like that. And it also doesn’t justify how shitty most landlords are, as you’ve mentioned. It’s scuffed for sure
