and of course
@downey I clicked on XMPP. I meant to click on Email.
@arh
Noted 🤓
@downey For the last one, I prefer Matrix but in some case emails are still needed (ex: job applications or administrative stuff).
@downey Where's IRC?
@downey I went email because it's the one I'd most struggle without but really all of them.
@downey I'm looking on mobile so I don't get the emote hints - is the second one Matrix?
@downey all I'm missing is tab VS spaces!
@e8johan maybe next weekend :)
@downey okay now hold up. I think I use almost every option provided across all three, pretty much equally 😆
@tek_dmn YOU MUST CHOOSE
👿
@downey fine.
I choose debian and emacs... For a decent daily driver that's well supported and capable, with plenty of extensibility
I choose arch and vim... For a flashy machine that leaves the house more often, and is still capable of my standard workloads, though maybe a little more straightforward.
I chose. 😈
What? No Mastodon / ActivityPub, when you're literally asking ON Mastodon...?
Truth is, I'm still sort of stuck on email. Not overly happy with instant messaging as a mode of communication: all the time-pressure of an in-person meeting, but even fewer non-verbal cues than a phone call (which I already hated for the same reasons).
@TerryHancock @downey Then let's throw you for a loop:
Hey @delta. 😆
@downey Confused E-mail Icon with Message (SMS) Icon, Otherwise would have chosen E-mail or Matrix, but chosen Matrix finally.
Why these polls? Personal research or something?
@downey where's neovim
@jason123santa next week''s poll :)
@downey where nano
@downey NVI
@downey I put vim in my emacs.
@downey
Finally. Vim beats emacs. A pleasure. /me run
@downey ed
jk, Neovim
@downey VS Code
I used Vim at need because I learned on vi.
But I actually use Kate or editors embedded in Eclipse, except for when I'm constrained to a terminal interface.
@downey I wanted to go for pencil but the check mark wouldn't register
@downey Text under Chrome OS
Re: text editors
@downey All of the above (Emacs+evil, NeoVim, pen/paper), each for a specific use case... I voted for pencil/pen, since pen/paper is the most beautiful of the three options
@downey no nano...
and last but not least
