Lmao. They couldn't even copy code from a random MIT licensed project? Sometimes I think these scammers aren't even trying

You could try making enabling git's rerere functionality, which stands for "reuse recorded resolution"

Arch does tend to keep packages as close to upstream as possible, which can be both a good and bad thing. Sway not binding to graphical-session.target by default is a little strange for example. Other distros also save a first-time user a great deal of configuration for things they probably don't care about as well. Going through Fedora's install and finding out that disk encryption and SELinux were configured OOTB was very nice to see personally. On the other hand Arch's installation (w/o archinstall) has you choosing a bootloader, audio server, display manager, etc. Nothing arduous and I like it, but definitely not for everyone

This is all eliminated by spinoffs of course, but even there users have the option to run random scripts/AUR packages without vetting them. Also doesn't help that the most popular Arch-based distro for a while (Manjaro) was pretty flaky and generally incompatible with the AUR (despite saying otherwise), leading to many people saying "that's just Arch" and swearing off the parent project as well

I switched to (Doom)-Emacs from a ~7yr old homegrown Vim config last week and honestly the configuration is less bad than it seems. If you're mainly writing markdown you'll probably get 99% of the way there by just enabling the dedicated module

Depends

Clannad? Valid

If I had to guess I'd say that their other project, Sponserblock, got a little bit more popular than they were expecting and this is just to help alleviate server costs. Most of the API endpoints don't require any auth at all (the single one that does accepts a random UUID), so any checks must be locally done (maybe system time?). The extension and server back-end are licensed under GPLv3 and AGPL respectively and are also entirely self-hostable, so the code is out there to verify if you wish

Additionally if you're looking for it to start on boot without logging in, you might find the loginctl enable-linger command to be of use. Maybe along with a Restart=on-failure policy in the service file if this is for a headless unit or something

The name was used casually before, but he officially changed it in 2021

Wouldn't call it trash but personally after trying it a couple times it seemed like it took as long to config as neovim while also not being nearly as hackable (probably is more extensible though being a GUI). For that amount of time I'd rather use something with larger benefits like an IDE

I suppose it's to stop a critical mass of promoters commenting "and my axe" among themselves? I agree though it doesn't really feel right to encourage more low effort posts

PRE-SUBMISSION EDIT: This is a long-winded reply and goes increasingly off-topic as it progresses, sorry. TLDR I agree

Anecdotally, I've also noticed a rapid change in the last decade or so as politicians become emboldened by Trump's success. For example, the premier of a major Canadian province has done the following:

She was previously head of the (now defunct) Wildrose party before defecting and indirectly leading to the historic 2015 election, which marked the first time a left-wing party formed a majority government in almost 80 years.

But even then the most controversial thing she said (publicly) was that 'the science on climate change "wasn't settled"', still inane but a far cry from what was to come after her return to power in 2022
