Well, my Ubuntu with https://vscodium.com/ is certainly much better for web development than fucking windows. I boot windows only for gaming. I detest their spyware adware OS. Furthermore, I detest "99% open source with 1% bullshit on top of it" products like Chrome and VScode. I will never use the official versions of such programs. I use Brave to use Blink/Chromium, it also has the benefit of not suffering from the v3 manifest bullshit they pulled to attack and weaken Adblockers.

WSL is cool and all, but why deal with all the quirks and issue that come with it, why lorn how it works and all the limitations ... when you can just have it all natively the way it was invented and supposed to work?

I wonder if [VSCodium](https://vscodium.com/) suffers from same issues

Seems like you still lose the Python plugin and remote extensions? Missing the wsl one is pretty rough. If you’re comfortable with vim (or want to be) I can’t recommend neovim enough.

Use Codium. https://vscodium.com/

Anything Microsoft-branded will shoot you in the face sooner or later.

No matter what project you're developing on, at some point you'll give VSCode (or its open source version) a try. You can use it to develop in a dedicated dev-environment or debug integration scenarios.

Hello, and welcome to vscodium:

So Raylib library could be your best option. Let's code, just open your text editor like vim or VSCodium in your Windows, Linux or Mac computer and let's build our indie game with Raylib library, no extra dependencies are needed.

From my own experience Debian Bookworm with XFCE + VScodium is a winner on the X220.

To be fair, there is vscodium[1] which is only a few letters off vscode:

Nice post. Obligatory Helix plug: For anyone interested in taking this further, there are whole editors designed around multi-cursor editing.

I could never turn it off completely but I do sometimes use the Acme theme during the day (it's too bright in the evening), which highlights just comments, strings, and errors.

You can use a snippet LSP to work around Helix not having a built-in LSP manager. They're listed in https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues/395

I'm probably not the average python programmer.

But I normally just create two terminals (I have a tiling window manager) and in one I open a python file under /tmp/ write my code and execute it in the other terminal.

I would probably use a REPL if it was integrated in my favorite editor ( https://helix-editor.com ).

Wow, that's been there a while: https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/commit/35c974c9c49f912...

Wonder how I missed that. I'm getting a re-education in helix today -- thank you! I'll go through `hx --tutor` again before I insert any more feet in my mouth.

Interesting to see how they are gonna approach integrating plugins/extensions system, because this is likely gonna be one of the major factors affecting adoption and ecosystem growth.

Helix devs, for instance, lean towards a Scheme-like implementation. [1]
