1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • 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.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    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. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Why not both?

    When the debate revolved around Emacs vs. Vim, I used Spacemacs. It seem we moved on from that?

    Is it now about VScode vs. (Neo)Vim?

    Guess that means Vim won the Emacs vs. Vim debate then, when it got into the next round.

    [–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 1 points 6 days ago

    It was never really a competition - just some misguided people who liked Emacs

    wait what?

    It's VIM features and key bindings that you can toggle on and off with a hotkey in VScode.

    Very handy when you have a task that VIM is better at (for your workflow), like recording s macro and replaying 100 times.

    Hmmm there seems to be a vscode in my vim.

    This is alright if you only know the basics of vim and then learn further from within that environment. If you're already an intermediate to advanced user, then the keybindings between VSCode and Vim tend to interfere with each other. You'll have to relearn how to do it.

    Thats why I bind toggling them to a hotkey. One or the other at a time, never both.
