This is also vim

Whyis quality dropping like this between Windows and macOS? Is this asking this even just rose-tinted glasses on the past?

Some things are better than they've ever been, so there's some amount of rose-tinted glasses.

The thing is, I've been aware of the power of MacOS and especially Windows to alter my computing environment against my wishes under the threat of not being patched for a while, and it's something nobody else seems to care about even when I pointed it out.

As much as things are better on all operating systems (drivers aren't really a problem anymore, for example, and chargers are practically universal, and battery-life is glorious!)- there are things that are really shitty, and we ignore the solved problems. I'm now also feeling a huge amount of catharsis.

Linux, however, has genuinely never been better.

There's no business reason to keep the quality high. As long as the happy path works it's grand.

Firefox kills my battery on an M4 MBP, it’s astonishing. Chromium and Webkit browsers don’t give me that problem.

Also, FF extensions still don’t support service workers, only background pages

Absolutely

Zellij has interesting ideas, but it has a ways to go. You can arbitrarily rebind the base modes and their actions, but you're F'd if those conflict with a plugin's, which seem to all have hardcoded key binds.

You can't rebind key maps to its session manager plugin, making it a no-go since I bind the same key that the plugin uses to select a directory or something. Thus, I can't create new sessions through it, have to do it from the command line.

It is insane how little is written down, and written down well, in my limited experience in Enterprise, never mind thoroughgoing written communication

'nerd-washing' such a great term

can someone explain this one to me?

if I had to guess, it's implied open-source-nerd atonement for the closed-source past sins of Microsoft, or something?

More or less, but for current and past sins. Much like green and sports washing.

>When you ship a piece of software, it's often expected to be usable by a million people reliably for years.

And what specifically, comparatively, has modern corporate software production organization contributed to to this point?

Need a text diffusion model to output a version of Eden!Eden!Eden!
