Re:Some surprising things about DuckDuckGo

I understand that having the DDG browser on Linux is difficult. It would be great if there was a way to just sync bookmarks and passwords using the browser extension for other browsers.
I use DDG browser for work and mobile and Firefox on Guix.

Been a happy EXWM user for a few years now. Really impressed that it comes as a desktop option for GUIX.
GUIX, EXWM, and Emacs are home for now :)

This is excellent news for giraffe conservation! Finally having the scientific clarity to recognize four distinct species means we can now protect each one more effectively. It's encouraging to see conservation science advancing to give these magnificent animals the targeted protection they need and deserve.

This is a fantastic project and offers the best experience I've encountered in an Emacs-like browser. However, I have found it to be somewhat unstable. Despite this, I have great respect for the development team for choosing Common Lisp, and I hope the browser gains wider adoption. I would love to use it as my main browser across all platforms.

Nice setup! I'm using Guix with EXWM and Emacs for most things. Just wondering why you went with Qutiebrowser instead of something like Nyxt?

Re:Modern IDEs are magic. Why still use Vim, Emacs?

I'd love to use Emacs for Java development, but I feel that IDEA is almost a necessity for professional Java/Spring development

I'd love to know if this was in a work setting. Did switching have any effect on your productivity? I appreciate that some languages are better suited to Emacs such as lisps and schemes.
What prompted the transitions for you?
