Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Am I a bad person for using Visual Studio Code?

    [–] cool@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

    You are just normal and sane

    I upvoted because yes, you are bad and you should feel bad.

    No, we vim users are the bad ones.

    There's a reason it's called 'evil mode' in emacs

    I tried nano, but none of the standard key combination would let me save or quit.

    you can always edit /etc/nanorc if you don't like the stock keyboard shortcuts

    [–] Temetra@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Or Micro, if you're a filthy casual like me

    [–] rackmountrambo@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Jesus, how much more basic can you really get than nano?

    [–] nicman24@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

    Ed or just sed
