I rely on friends’ recommendations and local Telegram channels

Actually, it’s not OK to bother to breathe. Your body is supposed to rely on reflexes to do that, so you shouldn’t really notice.

They went as far here in Ukraine as making some services exclusive to those who have the app. The official government app for digital documents and services, Diia, also has stupid integrity check, which makes it unable to be installed from Aurora Store, which makes me cut out from such services, because I don’t have Google Services installed. By the way, there are Google trackers in the app.

I don’t see a single advertisement on this website even with the adblock off. Only a single pop-up asking you register.

Most of the cost from not moving from requiring phone to be connected to people’s accounts and not desiring for the central server to federate with others.

“It’s not censorship, it’s counter-disinformation measures!! 1!”

Yeah, the town mentioned in the quote is, in fact, Pripyat, my bad. Still, Chornobyl is another Ghost town and the exclusion Zone is named after it, so it’s the town people recognise more.

Chornobyl, Ukraine. “50 thousand people used to live here, now it’s a ghost town”

There are many more ghost towns now, due to the war. Adviivka, Bakhmut and many others, some small, some relatively big. Everyone has heard of those small cities.

Seriously. Those are EXACTLY the thoughts I had after I was forced to deal with Python after a ton of time writing projects in JS.

Where the fuck did you get “about 20 friends”? I mean, holy shit, are you the extrovert guy from this meme?

I have a dedicated directory with subdirectories for each project and that’s it

I highly recommend checking out either Fedora KDE Spin or Fedora Kinoite! Both are great choices, especially if you want to leverage the power of Flatpak for app installation, as they both push the user towards it. Additionally, if you ever need to install .deb packages, you can easily do so using Ubuntu in toolbox.

Alternatively, EndeavourOS might also be a good fit for you, providing a user-friendly Arch installation with a rolling release system. You’ll have a modern and flexible environment while still being able to use Flatpak effortlessly. You can also install distrobox there to, again, use apt inside of an Ubuntu system.

Whichever you choose, you can’t go wrong! Happy tinkering and remember that the best way to choose a distro is to try it out.

I’m just using Arch in my toolbox. Can’t run into upgrade troubles if you run a rolling release system

ChatGPT does with extensions, but you need to buy the premium subscription

Did you also set the path to Nvim in settings.json? I had to do so to clear at least one error.

Yup. I set it to /run/host/usr/bin/nvim after exposing system libraries and binaries to VS Codium through KDE’s flatpak permission manager. Prior to that it kept throwing me ENOF errors (or something like that, I don’t remember now).

Unfortunately, that “disconnected” error is either not caused by a race condition for me or I was really unlucky, because at some point I restarted the extension 30 or some times out of frustration and nothing changed 😅

I didn’t have any errors in the init.vim file because I didn’t have any. I added an example init.lua file with contents from here and configured the extension to pull this config file, yet it still says Nvim disconnected each time I restart it. I just gave up and resorted to VSVim

That’s a feature I didn’t know I needed. Too bad Connect is proprietary IIRC

I’ve had issues with that one because I’m using VS Codium flatpak. I’ve exposed system binaries and the extension found the nvim binary, yet it kept erroring out with the message that Nvim was disconnected. VSVim is better in that regard for my case, because it is a stand-alone extension.

Woah, that’s pretty cool! i installed an extension for vim keybindings inside VS Code recently, as I find them very powerful. Unfortunately, I rely on VSC’s plugin ecosystem and thus can’t fully switch over to neovim, but I’ve liked it so far for everything else I do on my system, like writing bash scripts.
