I was excited to try Kagi, but I couldn't justify the cost. I find DDG with the occasional Google search to function almost as well. I'll try Kagi again at some point, but it wasn't the panacea people here made it out to be
I had major slow down in wexterm on my MBA. I didn't really look into it because the terminal is something I want to install and forget about, so the solution may be trivial. But it was so laggy as to be unusable.
I did use Lazyvim. It was definitely better (though I spent a fortune in time modularizing is plugins).
It just doesn't feel like a great solution for a variety of reasons. You're still a little on the hook for plugins and LSP configs. You're beholden to the distro e.g. if Lazy ever grows obsolete, Lazyvim could go too.
In a perfect world there would be a neovim core (what it is now) and a formal neovim distro.
I think they are a good middle ground, but you're still left with some of the busy work. Further, you're a bit more at the mercy of the maintainer. Likely, Lazyvim isn't going anywhere, but it isn't out of the realm of possibilities either.
As a decade long vim user, I just gave nvim a try this year, and I really wanted to like it.
In most every way it is a straight upgrade, but I find myself kind of bummed out that it is still so barebones on install. Really, I was hoping that something like Lazyvim would be the default because I would love a more "out-of-the-box" solution. I don't want to have to worry about keeping the LSP etc. up to date.
So instead, I've been looking more into Helix. Still not sold on the bindings, but what you get just by installing it is great.
Speaking only for myself, I did use bspwm for a good while, but ultimately I got tired of maintaining it. I'm looking for something that feels similar but is more out of the box. GNOME is the best I've found for that so far.
GNOME is my perfect DE. I love how it actively tries to stay out of my way.
I have no interest in KDE. It looks a little too much like Windows for me, and my time is limited, so I'm looking for out-of-the-box solutions and as little configuration as I can get away with.
Two quick questions: Is there a way to implement !!? Via functions maybe? "Last Command" looks to be hotkey based, and I can't think of how that would work.
Related: is there a comprehensive list of hotkeys floating around? I didn't see it in the docs. Things like Alt-Enter and Alt-, are mentioned in the Quick Start, but I couldn't find them elsewhere.
