  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.

    Dude, if it doesn't hog memory then what's the problem?

    [–] [email protected] 35 points 2 years ago (2 children)

    It kinda do though. VSCode, without a project open has 10 processes running and uses over a half gig of ram. I like VSCode to be clear. I also like discord but it's just a chat app and apparently needs a half gig itself and 6 processes.

    You should come over to vim. It only takes 12 months of intense training and an additional 3 years of super glueing random rc file configs together before it works how you want it to

    [–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

    Yeah, but once it's all setup, you get to see all your coworkers roll their eyes when they see you use vim at every job from that point on

    So, all worth it in the end πŸ‘Œ

    Also, I've saved at least $5 over the last decade from wear and tear on mice

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

    And that's just to figure out how to save and exit.

    I use IdeaVim in JetBrains IDEs, does that make me some kind of monster?

    I hope they'll find a way to run all those applications in one browser. Like basically having a browser with multiple tabs but getting treated like seperate sandboxxed apps.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

    Browser already do this. At least on Linux all browsers use namespaces(containers) for tabs

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

    Pretty sure he means for separate electron apps

    [–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

    Yeah, if all these apps are gonna use a common framework we might as well let the operating system handle it.

    [–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

    So, a web browser?

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

    Does tauri do this?

    [–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

    It is slow and usually anyway consume more memory than any native application built the same way due to it have to run a web browser. It is also taking up more storage space and updates are bigger and you need to watch out for we browser security holes. I think Electron have some limitations so you can't do everything you want with it like a native application.
