@tfb Yes that's true. Even the linux ports are basically wrappers around chromium (PWAs).

@tusharhero @minad While the resulting code was very minimal, it took a lot of headscratching to get my head around (as a #Emacs core nbewbie) the way Emacs handles display for different platforms. If anybody on Windows wants to try, they can compile and try from here:

https://codeberg.org/MonadicSheep/emacs/src/branch/cross-platform

It will help us test as well, next I am going to try to do the same for MacOS. Any MacOS emacs users who can help testing, we would be really grateful.

emacs

GNU Emacs, the extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display editor, with the canvas patch set. See: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2026-01/msg01995.html

@locallytrivial I was able to set it up now and it works. :) This was there in my backlog for so long and I'm glad I was able to implement it thanks to the blogpost you mentioned.

Participating in Emacs carnival after a long time.

I am also excited about next month's carnival because someone is picking up an idea I suggested :)

#Emacs

May I recommend: lesser known org-modes

@locallytrivial Thanks a lot! I'll check this out. :)
@tfb That sucks. :( I'm on Linux.
@oantolin This looks amazing! I'm always enamored by elisp zealots like you. Any recommendations to getting good at hacking on elisp? Maybe I should read the built-in `eintr` manual. #emacs @sacha

@sacha reminded me that I have fun writing code to generate neat pictures in #Emacs! I added a new picture type to luggage¹: hexinuous, which looks like this.

Outlook is the absolute bane of my existence. Why is it that my draft email is completely unresponsive after I get back to it after a while? I wish I could just use GNUS or notmuch with #emacs but for these so called security reasons, my org has whitelisted imap access only for the outlook webmail and thunderbird (which according to IT is not recommended and will not be given first class support).

Oh and did I tell you that thunderbird doesn't work on my personal laptop because of said policies by IT? No wonder the astronauts on the Artemis mission had two broken instances of outlook. Good work #Microslop.

All of a sudden those maniacs compiling everything themselves from known good sources seem a great deal more reasonable.
