Great, now consulting a search engine on questions about vim the text editor will yield equally awkward results as consulting a search engine on matters concerning latex the typesetting system.

Hadn’t looked into that for a long time, will try. I think the biggest hurdle for me might be native Windows terminals still being shit.

vim on any *nix box, Notepad++ when forced to use Windows.

Your mileage may vary, but it’s still possible to install some distros without those nonsensical containerised “package managers”, or to at least remove them after installation. It unfortunately takes an increasing amount of effort, especially in distros that are actively trying to push their flavour of containerised package manager. (Totally not looking at Ubuntu and Snap)

What is working in our favour here is the fragmentation, which will prevent, or at least slow down a too widespread adoption of those systems.

Use an ad blocker and the traffic is of little value to them. Especially if it only goes to /r/place and doesn’t allow to create much of a profile.

It would be a shame if someone conspired to coordinate such a thing…
