Vim doesn’t care if it’s running in Linux or Windows or macOS

Oh, now this is a shitpost.
Thought about downvoting, then realized it is top-tier.
Vim does care, but it doesn’t want to hurt your feelings.
Vi also cares, but not about feelings.
What does tmux think?
Tmux is feelings and empathy rolled into the terminal multiplexer we never knew we needed.
No, that’s Zellij
Tmux can make you feel all the feelings simultaneously
Idk if it’s simultaneous, but it definitely makes it really easy to jump between the feelings rapidly
Multiplexing
But with Linux, you can init=/bin/vim
Why settle for running vim on your os when vim can just be your os?
✨EXACTLY✨
I like your funny words magic man
you can still start a shell or /sbin/init from within vim, in the odd case you’d need it!
Forget GNU/Linux, VIM/Linux is where it is at.
But say it too loud and we are going to end up with a systemd-vim
systemd-vim gave me nightmares, thanks!!
Nothing. I hate having control over my personal property.
da penguin!!!
This is the right answer
I’m glad I noticed what community this was posted in before I responded.
Number one, I get to tell people that I use Arch. I could anyway, but this way I’m not lying.
Number two, it’s not Micro$oft or Crapple.
Number three, living in my mother’s basement isn’t as cost effective as I was hoping it’d be so free helps immensely.
If I did daily drive Linux I would probably use arch or Nixos so I could flex
Use NixOS and run Arch in a VM.
….genius
It’s because I use Arch. 😏
Linux tends to get out of your way to let you get shit done. Windows tends to be a marketing platform for Microsoft products that lets you get shit done.
I don’t see why my office computer needs some xbox app I can’t uninstall.
What finally pushed me over the edge was when I was trying to fix something in Windows and it said I couldn’t access that part of the OS. Bitch, you work for me, not the other way around. I’ve flopped back and forth between Linux and Windows for decades and just decided that anything I couldn’t do in Linux I just wouldn’t do. So far, I haven’t really encountered anything. With how much of my average computing is done in a browser these days, Firefox doesn’t really care which OS it’s running on.
Everyone ends up going back to windows for the better user experience anyway. Which is why Linux is an acronym for Linux Is Not UX (user experience).
I know I’m a weirdo, but I prefer the terminal, that’s why I made the switch to Linux from windows 17 years ago.
It’s supposedly easier to breath with your nose angled that high up in the air.
Yes, but the air is also thinner up here
I honestly don’t know. Every OS has its goods & bads. But generally I think it just comes down to whatever’s available. Personally, I use:
- Windows on my work laptop (because that’s what they gave me),
- MacOS on my personal laptop (because I like it),
- Ubuntu on my home automation / media server (because it was free).
Similar here but in reverse
- macOSX on my work laptop
- windows n my home laptop
- raspbian and Ubuntu on my home servers
- Rocky and Amazon Linux on my work servers
- but realistically most of my non-work activity is on iOS
- macOS on my work laptop. As an app developer this is my only option
- macOS on my personal laptop. As an app developer this is my only option
- raspbian on my home server
- daily drive iOS
- I dabble in Android on the side, but mostly just to test my apps
But I pretty much just need Tmux, Neovim, and a browser for 80% of my work and I’m happy. 10% of that is running an XCode build and the other 10% is macOS and iOS working really nicely together.
Linux does not care if the user is still in the vim age or has already progressed to good editors.
