just when you thought you knew how to exit vim lol
also, this is vim’s “easy” mode.

sorry, i didn’t tell how to quit. it’s ctrl+q

thanks for sharing, I’ll try it on my work machine

storage/documents/programs ro
> echo puts "hello world" > main.rb

storage/documents/programs ro via rb
> ls
c  js  main.rb  python

storage/documents/programs ro via rb
> < main.rb grep hello
puts hello world

storage/documents/programs ro via rb
>

in my case, my hand hurts if I use mouse(or a mobile phone) for some time. using j/k for scrolling and clicking links via f help me a lot.

haha, same. do you use vimium as well?

I too use nano.

alias nano="vi -y"

Weird way to say spend hours fixing something that just randomly borked your PC.

by work, I meant actual work, and not fixing something.
Last time I fixed something was a few weeks ago. It was MPV needing an update(which was totally my fault, as I often forget to do updates) as a yt-dlp script wasn’t working.

As for something breaking, my experience has been the opposite. Probably because I don’t own any newest hardware and don’t do much gaming, or any other stuff that might require some proprietary service for optimal functioning.

Also, my experience with the community has been excellent so far. Even my basic questions(e.g.: dual boot) were answered promptly and nicely by the community(I mostly use #linux on IRC, or distro-specific forums like linux mint forum).

I’d suggest you to give GNU/Linux one more try. Probably try out something like Nobara if you’re into games. Or maybe Linux mint if you want it to just work.

Maybe you just weren’t lucky the first time.

And don’t worry about fake internet points. They mean nothing.

I love GNU/Linux.

Before I used Debian, I’d constantly fight with my operating system. Every time I opened michaelsoft binbows(which would take ages to open), I’d make sure that simplewall is running, so that bill doesn’t get any more info, after every 180 days, I’d run MAS to renew my office 365. I’d manually sync time since windows would use that same domain to send telemetry.

Now everytime I turn on my computer, the swirl of Debian greets me in a flash, my i3 being ready even before I sit.

I can spend hours doing work without any mandatory updates . It is an operating system that never makes me feel its presence. For that I’m grateful to people like Ian, Stallman, Linus, among countless others making my life better.
