  • I started because I heard it’s good for programming which turned out to be true. Initially stayed because it was customizable but had windows for games. Now just Linux because it’s better for everything I do. I think now people switching to Linux mostly do it because Linux is just better except for niche programs.

    There are still things that work on X11 that don’t work on Wayland but Wayland has more security, more features and is actually being developed now.

    Pick your distros default, if something graphical doesn’t work switching might do the trick.

    Common issues with wayland are mostly related to screen sharing or lower level thingies like programmatically pressing the mouse.

    Common issues with X11 is VRR, HDR, fractional scaling and multi monitor configuration.

    I use Neovim as much as possible but Jetbrains C# just has a really nice debugging experience (with Vim mode on, of course). I still use Neovim for reading C# and doing some small edits and it works really well when reading what the LLM wrote.

    It’s hard to beat stepping through a method until you hit an exception, go into a catch block, ctrl+O until you hit the last line before the exception, breakpoint, skip to top of method and rerun.


  • I mean, you could rephrase this as “Which cuisine in Europe has the most fried foods, processed meats, sugars, alcohol and other processed foods.”

    This will put Mediterranean cuisine pretty high up on the list of healthiest but it still neglects the “cuisine vs diet” question.

    Malnourished people will be much better off trying eating Greek yoghurt than a bag of chips even though energy will be similar.
