Even stock/vanilla Emacs is too slow
I “live in Emacs”, like most of us (atleast at work). It has been getting slower release on release, async support doesn’t seem to have been picked up by most packages and native-comp has made it more brittle. Over this time, we moved from running the OS on hardware to running in VMs, so fractional slowdown was expected. But what I have is a few X slower Emacs. I had never seen Emacs take a minute to indent a few thousand lines, for example. Maybe some modes have slower code.
Excellent public transport in India
3 buses plying in quick succession. No, this is not a scene from a responsible “developed” country. This is from suburban Uttar Pradesh, the largest and the most populous region in India: a “developing” country. Public transport is the only option for a large number of people, so it is run and at very low ticket prices.
Lemmy as a discussion forum
Are there communities, free software/open source or otherwise, using Lemmy as their forum software? Nowadays, many use Discourse, some are on Zulip, and I just don’t care about the Discord ones. Would Lenmy not fit the same purposes? It is federated and easier to participate in, like mailing lists - no need to sign up per forum. Matrix is too, but it doesn’t seem to be made for long-form writing. I believe Discourse was designed based on experience with community dynamics, and Zulip is well-designed too. Would something with federated participation like Lemmy not work as well?
