I haven’t heard of this before. How does it compare to Obsidian or Notion?

I much prefer it over grub. I don’t think there’s any other bootloader’s that support btrfs snapshots.

I think flatpaks are good. The performance penalty for containerized software can be felt much more when you’re not using a good CPU. So containers do not “solve” my use case.

Could you pass me a link to an example setup?

“subvolume - cannot be snapshotted if it contains any active swapfiles”

Make a subvolume only for the swapfile.

has a chance to fragment

This is true for all files. Is it a bigger problem for swap?

has issues with hibernation (that I’ve personally encountered multiple times)

This one I can’t refute. How long ago did you have these issues?

Mount options also only take effect on the first mount of the device. Since it looks like you only have 1 btrfs device - only / needs the options, really.

I didn’t know this. Thanks!

Yeah it’s supported. It’s listed in the docs for btrfs and arch.

Don’t you need FAT 32 for compatibility?

ext4 boot partition? Does that mean you have Coreboot, not UEFI?

I’m interested in a long time investment that will grow as I will

As long as you pick up shortcuts from any editor you’re used to and can implement them or something similar in any hackable editor, you’re growing long term.

Emacs and (Neo)Vim have passed the test of time and I honestly don’t think they’ll cease to exist in the upcoming decades

Neovim will exist on account of being a lightweight refresh on Vim that, due to issues with the Vim owner, was able to gain enough momentum to take off.

Emacs I’m not so sure. If you’ve checked the news anytime for Doom Emacs, you can see the maintainer mentioning how it’s become progressively difficult to maintain the project. I’d imagine it’s a similar story for plugins and other derivatives. People have attempted remaking Emacs from scratch, but there was not enough momentum for it, so that went under.

There are a lot of beautiful plugins for both Emacs and Vim that personally, I wish could exist as programs separate from these editors. Have you had a look at the design philosophy behind Kakoune?

“Kakoune is expected to run on a Unix-like system alongside a lot of text-based tools, and should make it easy to interact with these tools. For example, sorting lines should be done using the Unix sort command, not with an internal implementation.”

This would stop so many tears being shed for deprecated plugins if they just focused on being a separate program that can interact with whatever code editor you want, be it VSCode, Vim, Emacs, etc.

I also recommend reading this article here that goes more in-depth on this point and has a comparison of vim, helix and kakoune.

God’s Grace, I can finally unprivate my Steam.

Very simple solution actually. Here I was thinking we’d need AI to solve it.
