For terminal I currently use JetBrains Mono. I also used Fira Code and Source Code Pro in the past.

In GUI apps I use Inter right now. Previously used Roboto for a long time.

Somehow NixOS really is like a fucking crack. I had like a 6 months non-stop hyperfixation about configuring everything using NixOS and Home Manager. Almost every evening. Now I have a polished setup of my personal and work laptops, homelab server and a VPS. And I have no regrets, this thing is amazing.

Yeah, what the heck is this capitalization about?

This is the first post mentioning it I’m seeing. I literally just found out because of it.

The ability to adjust preservation settings based on the tags is exactly what I wanted for a long time, I’m pumped. Thanks!

I was referring specifically to “tab only GUI”. I’m sure a proper keyboard only GUI can be great.

Haven’t been updated at all??? That’s very much not true. There’s so much going on in terminal world. There are many flavours of modern terminal emulators, multiplexers, shells. There’s a ton of sophisticated terminal oriented software like Neovim for example. Pretty much every single part of terminal environment has now feature-rich, performant and safer alternative implementations. The terminal and CLI world is thriving. Almost none of that massive cumulative effort is directed towards the mouse support. I really think it’s just not what people want.

That’s better than nothing, obviously, but I wouldn’t call pressing tab repeatedly the epitome of good keyboard-driven UX.

This is really weird. I love working in the terminal precisely because I can do everything without using the mouse. I thought that’s the point?

No hate though, I just don’t get it.

Agreed. I tried pretty much every other alternative because Joplin’s UI seems a bit dated and I’m a sucker for eye candy. But in the end I came back to Joplin. It’s really good and the UI actually grows on me too. Not modern and flashy but also not ugly and it works well in practice.

This is peak Technical Analysis!

Honestly, I really didn’t expect people to argue that telling others to kill themselves is okay but here we are I guess.

I really don’t think context changes a lot in this case. Being frustrated doesn’t make statements like this acceptable. Neither does starting the sentence with “if” or being right (which he was).

Believe me, my intention is not to attack or discredit Linus. As a SE and Linux enthusiast I have a great deal of respect for him. But this is not exclusive with acknowledging that he is just a human and has flaws like all of us.

I brought this up to show that it’s more complicated than just being “really nice but very honest”, that’s all.

Sure, here you go: https://www.theregister.com/2012/02/29/torvalds_tantrum_opensuse/

He has told people that they should kill themself. I’m not trying to throw a shade on him but that’s the unfortunate truth.

That’s good. You can also check out btrbk - it’s a tool which can take snapshots for you, like Timeshift, but also back them up to somewhere.

Absolutely, my backup solution is actually based on BTRFS snapshots. I use btrbk (already mentioned in another reply) to take the snapshots and copy them to another drive. Then a nightly restic job backs up the latest snapshot to B2.

Just a friendly reminder that BTRFS snapshots are not backups.

This also probably increases the chance that they will actually look at the cable and touch it instead of just answering that it’s obviously plugged in. Brilliant!
