Can you actually explain how it's suboptimal UX, and what I could be doing better. I want a simple IDE, not suboptimal bloat. I don't need 200 keybinds to make a vue component.

Just because you have a bunch of custom quirks doesn't mean that I do.

I found lunarvim to just not work that well for web development out of the box (if I tried doing anything past vanilla JS), and I have no interest in learning about lunarvim specific things like the lvim global object to be able to tweak it.

That's the thing, I absolutely don't want to do a bunch of tiny tweaks. I want to write (react) code. For me personally I feel like tweaking an IDE gets in the way of that. Yet I can take a clean install of lazyvim, use mason to install the react language server, and install copilot, and then I can immediately start working.

And so that's what I actually do, and I find that to be much more pleasant (and lightweight) than other IDEs like VS code.

LazyVim got me back into vim. After years of custom configs and/or heavily editing lunarvim and nvChad I was getting a bit burnt out but decided to give lazyVim a try, and I was absolutely blown away. For the first time a vim setup actually felt like a real IDE. It took about 60 seconds to go from having lazyvim installed to having a fully functional IDE that I could use at work in a real environment. That's the same amount of effort it would have taken me to set up a fresh install of vs code with whatever plug-ins I wanted.

If you've ever been put off by the complexity and setup of nvChad or lunarVim, then I highly suggest giving lazyvim (or astrovim, its similar but with more "batteries included") a try

Do you think it'd be possible to make a shell script that anyone (running the same distro as you) could run to get all of this working? Alternatively just a readme detailing every single thing you did (and how you did it) would also make for an interesting read.

How's the latency when doing live performances or just practicing piano? Because recently I've stopped doing much production and moved from using DAWs to lighter programs like Gig Performer since I'm more of a pianist than a producer, I use like 5 plugins max (a modeled piano with a few effects like reverb and comp) and I'd be interested in a Linux alternative if the delay isn't going to annoy me during practice.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this. I'm active in some video game subreddits and I even mod a video game related sub with about 25k subscribers. And on multiple occasions I've had terrible interactions with those big multi-sub moderators. A particularly infamous multi-sub mod (whom you can probably figure out) has threatened me for my subreddit on multiple occasions, making statements like "I'll have you blacklisted from modding other subs". That same exact mod on multiple occasions has deleted my posts from subs he mods, just to reupload them for karma himself. I don't even care about the karma, I just wish mods wouldn't delete my posts that don't break any rules in any way, shape, or form, especially when it's for blatant karma farming.

If you look around Google you can even find several posts of subreddits getting "liberated" of this particular multi sub mod... Something needs to change so this stops happening
