Coders, what is your workflow on Linux

  • Code in VSCodium
  • Code in Kate to keep thing fresh
  • Code in Nvim because I still need to learn it
  • Cry while debbuging a React app because the error messages aren't very good
  • Wish I were working with Svelte or had enough backend experience to switch to being a backend dev
  • Play with terminal configs and shell scripting to distract myself from my woes
  • Rinse and repeat.

Aside from the (not so much) jokes, give VSCodium a try, it's to VSCode what Chromium is to Chrome, and works just as well.

Lemmygrad Vent Post!

Currently on vacation, couldn't enjoy any of it.

  1. The kid's been lying to the whole family about using the (very expensive) medication for his skin condition. Also keeps lying about homework and just lazy around all day. We're fed up with him.
  2. Partner has been jobless for months, no signs of getting any new job yet and money's tight
  3. One of our cats got an inflammation on one of her teeth, and it's gonna be expensive
  4. One of mom's cat is in intensive care for possible hepatitis and pancreatitis. Also expensive as hell (and it comes from my pocket since mom needs financial help)
  5. Mom is in a very bad mental state after fighting with my sister and losing another of our cats earlier this year to diabetes. I worry constantly for her.
  6. I'm just a single ADHD person in my 30s having to care alone for a partner with depression, a mom with depression, lots of cats with 2 currently sick, and an ungrateful teen stepson.

"Things are tiresome" is an understatement. And also, the job's been annoying, but that's the least of the current woes. To everyone also struggling, let's stay strong together.

Why are Mastodon's trending hashtags so ... dull?

That really synthetises why I dislike microblogging so much: It's a bunch of people throwing small-talk and rage bait everywhere, all the time.

Considering a lot of people are really bad at conservation in every possible way, it also makes sense why microblogging is so much more popular than forum-like platforms.
