Is it local? No freshess or ttrss server sync?

I'm pretty sure it was a joke.

Everyone did this at some point, but nobody would admit such a silly thing happened to them.

Universal editor you are talking about is vim. Spend 15 minutes doing vimtutor and you'll be happy 15 years later.

Does it violate Discord ToS?

I was reading some opinions and blogs about helix and thought it's really cool, gave it a try, and almost immediately switched back to vim. It was the moment when I tried to use some regex substitution and as it turns out there are no regex matchgroup substitutions in helix. You can't easily do stuff like replace all occurences of a pattern "firstword secontword: thirdword" with "thirdword - firstword" for example. At first I thought that I'm just new to this editor and don't know how it's done, then after searching for a while found that helix doesn't try to implement things that can be done by external tools, and the way to go is pipe your selections (or entire buffer contents) to sed or awk or whatever and and read from their stdout back into your file (?).

So, while it feels more unix-way (why have regex substitutions when you can pipe into tools that already do this), I still like that vim has this builtin, it feels more integrated into the tool probably. At this point, if helix doesn't want to implement things other tools can do, why even have regex search and select? This could be done by piping into grep as well, I think. Anyway, just my silly opinion and my experience with helix is that I can't use it without regex match groups and substitutions and I'm too lazy to learn how to pipe into sed and do this properly in helix, and it feels natural to me that vim has this builtin with a great amount of advanced options and features.

Like, for example, in vim you can do regex searching and tell vim which part of the match should be your final selection. It's incredible how powerful regexes in vim are.

There is LibreOffice viewer app that can only view documents but can't edit them, and then there is Collabora Office which is like libreoffice but can edit documents. It's limited, but it's better than nothing. AFAIK they share some codebase, so when viewing documents collabora is pretty much the same as libreoffice.

Instead of cd into output of ls | grep I'd suggest you to install fzf and fuzzy find directories to cd into.

I noticed this problem when I tried Yggdrasil.

Unless his email server doesn't support IMAP :-(

I'll keep the last pre-sale version of simple gallery until fossify gallery implements some kind of editor (no, rotating and cropping is not editing).

So you went out of your way to find something on a GitHub page of the developer of the extension I use and took this screenshot, for what? To prove me this extension is worse than others? I'm not getting your point.

If you don't like it or political views of developers are important part of your process of choosing software, nobody is forcing you to use that extension. I suggested whatever I use because it fits my needs, no need to tell me if I'm right or wrong in using the software I choose.

I have no idea what's in their GitHub repository, also I don't know what's the deal with China or Taiwan. I found this extension in Addons.Mozilla.Org and it gets the job done, so that's what I'm using.

Vimium-C is more advanced and works better if English is not your only keyboard layout.

Let us know when it's ready, I'd like to try that.

So, basically, vim? /s

Because dota is better than lol. Lol.

Let me know if you find out.

No, it has to do with UI element where you type addresses and searches (input box). It's a very old bug, you can find issues on GitHub, Bugzilla etc.

Input box is supposed to understand whether what you type is an address, and if not, it is being treated as a search query. To understand if it's an address, it uses Regular Expressions. Their regular expression is wrong, so it can find IPv4 address, but can't find IPv6. As simple as that.

There were some pull requests to fix that, but guys at Mozilla said that those pull requests lead to performance regressions and rejected that.

I know all of this because I could not use IPv6 addresses too and hadbl to look for the issue and find workarounds.

I don't know if it's open source or not, sorry, but I use MiXplorer and it does everything I need, including SFTP.
