I haven't heard of this before. How does it compare to Obsidian or Notion?

How long do you think?

From what I understand:

• it has all btrfs features
• it's as performant as ext4 (with COW enabled)
• it's more stable than btrfs
• it has built-in encryption, (no LUKS needed)

The page in Gentoo explains it's features well

"subvolume - cannot be snapshotted if it contains any active swapfiles"

Make a subvolume only for the swapfile.

has a chance to fragment

This is true for all files. Is it a bigger problem for swap?

has issues with hibernation (that I've personally encountered multiple times)

This one I can't refute. How long ago did you have these issues?

Yeah it's supported. It's listed in the docs for btrfs and arch.

The fee could be really small but scale depending on factors like business size. Or there could be no fee outright for businesses smaller than a certain size.

There are a lot of posts about this podcast. I'm listening to it now!

Well the question is, how would such a license look like? Or would it be a contract and not a license?

I guess I should ask a lawyer these questions, but I wanted to see what others here thought about the idea.

Yeah pretty much

If you had also read the article BTW you would have realized that spoilers: it's not about source code availability.

You saw the first few paragraphs about the Red Hat drama and didn't read further.

Reading the whole thing you'd realize it's a list of reasons why open source software hasn't become popular with the wider public, and his proposed solution to this.

I just included the idea he is proposing, others can read the article to see his reasoning.

A lot of people have been recommending Blowback. I'm listening to it now!

I'm interested in a long time investment that will grow as I will

As long as you pick up shortcuts from any editor you're used to and can implement them or something similar in any hackable editor, you're growing long term.

Emacs and (Neo)Vim have passed the test of time and I honestly don't think they'll cease to exist in the upcoming decades

Neovim will exist on account of being a lightweight refresh on Vim that, due to issues with the Vim owner, was able to gain enough momentum to take off.

Emacs I'm not so sure. If you've checked the news anytime for Doom Emacs, you can see the maintainer mentioning how it's become progressively difficult to maintain the project. I'd imagine it's a similar story for plugins and other derivatives. People have attempted remaking Emacs from scratch, but there was not enough momentum for it, so that went under.

There are a lot of beautiful plugins for both Emacs and Vim that personally, I wish could exist as programs separate from these editors. Have you had a look at the design philosophy behind Kakoune?

"Kakoune is expected to run on a Unix-like system alongside a lot of text-based tools, and should make it easy to interact with these tools. For example, sorting lines should be done using the Unix sort command, not with an internal implementation."

This would stop so many tears being shed for deprecated plugins if they just focused on being a separate program that can interact with whatever code editor you want, be it VSCode, Vim, Emacs, etc.

I also recommend reading this article here that goes more in-depth on this point and has a comparison of vim, helix and kakoune.

Wow, didn't know the roots were that deep...

Yeah, I see it now. 😅

That's very interesting. I think you've sold me on watching the show.

Thank you for the article. I'll need to look more into this in the future.

Good explanation, thanks!
