You only need to support Steam runtime.
Golfing is not the best representation of day to day text editing, but I must say that optimal Kakoune solutions are usually pretty close to normal workflow.
That's not true, motion commands don't create new selections. Search will create a new selection only if you explicitly ask for that by pressing shift N.
- very slow startup time - forced auto updates (that tend to break things) - Snap store is proprietary, centralized and entirely controlled by Canonical - pollute home with ~/snap directory (not even hidden) - badly integrated with the system (GTK themes...) - creating snaps was easy only on paper - hard dependency on systemd
Therefore, I sincerely hope Snapcraft has no future and the community will converge on a single "universal" packaging format. I don't really care if that's Appimages, Faltpaks or something else.
Given the over-prommise-under-deliver launch of V, it boggles my mind that it gained so much traction on GH.

Let's say you have 'foo bar' string, and you want to change quotes to "
In Kakoune this operation could look like this:
<a-a>' # select string including quotes
<a-S> # select first and last character of previous selection
r" # replace selections with "
Trivial, 5 keystrokes and it works for any type of quotes (I can do for example <a-a>`). Notice that "replace quotes around the string" is not built-in operation in Kakoune.Now how would you achieve that in non-modal editor that also doesn't have this operation built-in?
This is the pinnacle of design.
- passphrase (long sentence, but it's easy to remember) - uid (Name <email> - easy) - timestamp (10 digits - kinda hard to memorize but you can have it noted is plain text since it's not sensitive information)
There is also POSIX sh implementation available that is even shorter: https://github.com/dylanaraps/pash
