Weirdly I think Vim's modal mindset is a much simpler grasp than the finger gymnastics presented by Emacs.
Yeah I think since trying modal editors going back to GUI/Chorded Editors in a no go.
Honestly I can't believe anyone uses a chorded editor? Am I just missing something or is it a lot of extra keys to press to achieve the same thing as a modal editor.
Yeah I'm guessing that's Helix's approach. Maybe the bind relearning is worth it or maybe it inspires NeoVim or other Vim-like editors to come with more of the consistently repeated stuff enabled by default.
Yeah I agree NeoVim being extensible is wonderful, and I believe Helix has the goal of adding a plugin system. It's also super lightweight while including a lot of these core features we see repeated in nearly every NeoVim setup, the kind of thing like LSP & Tree Sitter which shows up so often it begs the question: Should this be built into the editor.
I am also terrified of relearning all the minds after years of vim use, although a lot of the base bindings are the same or similar. I guess if I could relearn the system keyboard shortcuts when I switched OS I can do the same here.
Yeah there are some issues with compatibility, I've found a couple of apps that error on my Mac.
How does it compare to Flatpak?
I can't speak for Flatpak as I haven't tried it but nixpkgs are beautiful to work with and configuration of my system has become completely reproducible in a clean format.
Ecosia is pretty sweet if you fancy helping the planet. It's also privacy conscious as in does not sell or store any personally identifiable information. They also anonymize search data.
important to note that Ecosia does collect some non-personal information, such as search terms and click data, to improve search results and analyze usage patterns.
Something like Searx?
