The long line support improvement could be a game changer. I’m less interested in tree sitter and pixel-scroll seems like a nightmare - emacs users know how screwed up scrolling is already especially in large buffers.

I keep my passwords on an old HP-200LX.

Most of us don't run Windows, this is HACKER News not PEBKAC News.

Careful, AI has been known to lie.
