I once spent half an hour fiddling with the font sizes in Mint. Does that count?

NixOS, Helix, and Hyprland 😁 But I’m graduated, so I just procrastinate everything else instead.

Sell me on Helix real quick. I’ve heard about it and it looks interesting but I’m not sure what the hook is.

I came from vscode and nano. I wanted something within the terminal as powerful as vscode. I tried doom emacs and vim but they didn’t feel right.

Reasons I use it:

  • I found it easier to learn than vim/emacs in my opinion
  • Written in rust
  • Pretty easy to get language servers running
  • config is super easy

I initially read that as “It’s better than dome.” Which is an objectively solid pitch for anything.

One well rounded package that doesn’t need a complicated config or possibly unmaintained plugins.

I stopped using emacs because I was spending more time in config files than actually doing anything useful

Look into Helix :D

It’s missing plugins… but aside from that, as of now, it’s about as configurationless as it can get.

I just have some extra keys mapped and that’s it. Single <30 line config file.

I’m have been NixOS curious for quite a while now. I am afraid I will be consumed by it, if I fully commit.
