I still have rif on my phone for it’s sentimental value. Two years ago it took a while to get used to opening Connect for Lemmy instead of rif.

I sometimes wonder why some programmers don’t use vim. Aren’t they lazy enough to be bothered about unnecessary work and “friction” you have to deal with when using ordinary editors. I’d rather do the interesting parts of the job and command the computer to do the rest. Of course the communication with the computer has to be as concise, as effortless, and as easy as possible.

There are a host of other deliberate annoyances Amazon has created to make sure the tablet is used for their purpose rather than your own.

Do you have some examples? Sounds both horrible and interesting.

Take my upvote. Seems like he wasn’t the only one in this thread with a short fuse 😁

Everything is enshittification. And you better like GNU/Linux, or else…

You mean collage? I agree. I think your suggestion would work best if it was also made to look like an obvious collage. If it was accurately photoshopped to look like the penguins were actually there it would look silly.

Would you agree that man page with good example section of common use cases would better serve the purpose or do you think there has to be separate tool to show only a short summary of the manual?

I don’t understand why people think this is such a useful thing. Sure it has some good summaries but you can’t find all info there whereas man pages should have everything. It’s also good that tldr has examples but I think it’s something man should more often have too. So why would people rather use this than man?

For example I often forget the order of pattern and file in grep. I can look it up easily in both man and tldr. I also forget what was the short option for recursion. Was it -r, -R or either or something else entirely? I can easily do a search on my pager to find the option in man but there’s only long option available in tldr. That’s Too Long Don’t Want to Type.

But in many cases Windows is pre-installed so it doesn’t matter if installing Windows is equally hard. People don’t have to install Windows in order to use it. In order to get normal people to use Linux there should be similarly no barrier to entry. I’ve seen companies selling used laptops with Linux distro of choice pre-installed. Something like that could work.

Probably an average. I think the above average types usually have a vim keybinding configured to send current buffer to CIA via curl so they don’t have to use bloated web browser for doing everyday task.

I use it. I also use bluetooth headphones but wired headphones are more reliable. No connection problems. And I haven’t tried bluetooth headphones with microphone so I don’t know if they’re any good. I need the microphone for phone calls.

Well, it’s certainly shorter than the table in the parent comment.

Any idea is there anything similar available on LG webOS?
