It absolutely is. Yet, as Sean said, it's also yet another bit of software to run and maintain, and ES is known to be a bit of an effort to keep going well.

Admins having only finite amounts of time and/or resources, might make the very understandable decision to leave it out.

Gut, ja, het is stroom, het werkt, prijzen zijn prima, dus ja, wel tevreden.

Ik heb wel een code voor je.

(Edit: code ook daadwerkelijk toegevoegd. Ooit ga ik dat internet en links en zo snappen).

Keyboards is no beter. Like you said, the fluff makes the hobby.

Just looking at it makes me wonder why you'd consider the thumb placement that strange (although all hands are different and all that). What was off about it for you?

I'm actually still on my first ergo, a Lily58 (my first mechanical was a "regular" 75%). I was a bit on the fence between this and the Corne, and I think I would've been fine going with the Corne; I barely used the numrow and currently it's not even mapped, and I'm experimenting with putting the things I had left on the outer columns on layers or combos.

But regret... no, of course not. It's been a great learning experience so far!

I'll certainly build more boards at some point, at least a Corne because, well, gotta build a Corne, but maybe some other things as well. Maybe a Charybdis or a Cygnus or something like that.

You gotta love the copy on the Warp site. As for why they're now launching it on Linux:

Despite this, Linux has relatively few terminal options compared to Mac and Windows

...relatively few? Really?

This sounds like it'd be exactly how I currently use Tumbleweed on my workstations: I don't update daily, but rather every once in a while. I appreciate the new versions of things, but being on the daily bleeding edge is more work than I care to put in.

I can also see this working quite nicely for those with nvidia hardware, where with TW you'd sometimes end up with a kernel too new for the drivers to get shoehorned in. A slightly easier-going pace would help there.

It also reminds me of Android, where you have roughly monthly updates (theoretically) and every now and then a bigger one.

Installing a software package through a distro's package manager sounds like a perfectly fine "Linux way" to me.

Of course, that filesystem exists today as btrfs.

Which, to be fair, isn't exactly the fasted FS around. I love me some btrfs, but not for the benchmarks.

Muscle memory needs some time, especially for symbol stuff. Don't hesitate to tweak your mappings, I've made some changes at some point which made things a whole lot more workable. I started with Miryoku which was completely unsuitable for the PHP work I was doing back then, to mention something, and moving the number cluster to the right hand rather than left did miracles for my day to day work as well.

I code with it, yeah. Just have those symbols wherever you want them (I never used those inner upper keys either, except for things that I don't mind lifting my hand for). Layers layers layers. Also home row mods.

For my next board, I'm probably going with a 6×3+3, I don't use the number row either. Keypad on a layer under the right hand is so much nicer...
