My computer desktop was really dusty an cluttered and I didn't had much space, so I dusted everything and reorganized everything to have a little more space.
Vim sticker + Gnome DE = we can be friends :)

where is your mousepad
this mouse is potty trained
Neat, I should do that, too!
Share it with us when you do it!
My desk looked that neat once. When it was new up until 1 week after.
There's something nice about having a basic setup that you can just tear down and rearrange on a whim. Most importantly, there's less to go wrong :|
Nano > Vim. Fight me.
Vim is objectively more powerful.
True, but I can't memorise all those keybinds anyway
Do you know every Nano keybind or just the ones you need to use everyday? You don't need to know hundreds of keybinds to use Vim.
Fair, but the keybinds for the basic functions like saving or copy/paste are simpler in Nano. I guess Vim doesn't really use keybinds so much as it uses commands?
I would argue that Vim is simpler, I mean, to enter edit mode the "keybind" is just i, save is w, quit is q, save and quit is... well... wq, to copy you use yy, to paste you use p. Sure, it's not the standard Ctrl+[Shift]+S/C/X/V, however it is still simple in it's own context, and far more powerful and composable, as many keybinds can be modified to operate on a number of lines (for example dd will delete a line, d<num>d will delete number of lines from the cursor).
Mhh, I guess I'm just used to the ol' Ctrl+x stuff from using Windows for so long... I'll have to give Vim another go
the best part about learning vim, at least the basic movement and operations, is that pretty much every good application that involves text has a vim mode/plugin which means what you learn can also be used outside of CLI.
learning it takes time, i started with basic movement and then each week incorporated a new command into my workflow. it really does make text manipulation faster, but also if you don't modify text frequently then yeah nano is fine or in a GUI Kate is also great (has a good vim mode and you get a gui so you won't get stuck).
It was a bit to get used to for me as well, I switched fully to Linux around 2020, prior to which I had many years of Windows intuition. I literlally just started with using no fancy features or trying to be a Vim power-user, basically the only keybinds I used where i, w, q, and wq, I learnt dd organically, and have just been learning the odd trick here and there. I still use about 1% of Vim's total capacity, but I already vastly prefer it over Nano for features aside from those behind keybinds. I still turn on mouse mode on Vim, I still use the arrow keys rather than h/j/k/l, but it gets me through my day painlessly.
Nice. Like the coffee mug. And the table has coffee color as well... I just got a bigger desk with enough room to push all the clutter to the sides 😅
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
