It seems like a cool idea.

Life is too short to give stuff away for free. Monetize wherever possible. Almost everyone who gives away useful software for free burns out and stops doing it.

This is the same guy who wrote Kitty Terminal. Such a nice guy who keeps writing excellent software and giving it away for free.

I have heard many good things about org-mode. Question:

- Have you ever used Vimwiki? I know it is no org-mode, but even I am a regular notetaker and I never felt it really lacked in anything, but yeah, it doesn't have task planning.

> while Emacs is slightly better at programmatically automating common tasks

I hear this a lot, can you give some concrete examples?

I am really curious to know how Emacs and Vim fits in your daily workflow?

Well, Emacs is incredibly powerful, but it is just too much work to do anything, even regarding keystrokes and all the chords you have to remember. I have worked on Emacs too, but sometimes it is just not worth investing so much time and energy in Emacs if you can spend much fewer time in Vim and get a lot more done.

VimScript is aweful, sure, but with Neovim Lua support, you can do a lot more in a decent and fast language. Emacs has some great plugins and good LSP support (Also, available in Neovim/Vim and also native treesitter support too). There is barely anything in Emacs at this moment that really justifies investing so much time into it.

Even with this post, as an experienced Vimmer, I could basically do everything they are doing here, without installing any plugin and remembering all those obscure keystrokes.

Also, Emacs folks downvoting this, tell me if my logic is wrong, you will come up with NADA.

Just use Vim and learn modal editing, all this hassle for so little benefit.

Well, It is more of a design problem than a Django template problem. If you add more and more logic in the template itself instead of dealing with it in the views context or templatetags, you are bound to find yourself in such position that you have very hard to test code.

The tooling is fine and almost always lets you know where you are breaking stuff. Also, comparing react tooling with it is not fair, it is a much modern ecosystem that has pitfalls of its own.

I have been writing Django professionally for 10 years and React + Django together for 4+ years, so I really know what I am talking about here.

> Flashing a rom on google-branded phones is so simple, a non-tech person can follow a 5min youtube video to do it Lol, this reeks of how little you understand how much a non-tech person is capable of. A vast majority of Android users won't bother or know how to flash the ROM.
