(Turn and face the strange) Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!

After +20y of /vi/#vim/#neovim/*vim distros/ and having tried/used every editor on the face of the earth and many notes apps...... I decided to take the plunge with #DoomEmacs and #OrgMode. HOW HAVE I LIVED WITHOUT THEM UNTIL NOW!?!?

I like Doom Emacs because 1) I hate Emacs convoluted key combos; 2) it comes fully fledged and very familiar to what I was using latest ( #lazynvim ); 3) evil-mode-everywhere; 4) which-keys.

(Doom) Emacs is truly an amazing IDE now. One that I tried to recreate myself in the past few years with nvim lazyvim and others. Doom Emacs feels perfect to me. I'm also starting to understand and like emacs-lisp. One day maybe I'll go vanilla and DIY.

Org Mode is just fantastic. I could ditch office suites, notes apps, blog engines, presentation, music players, and lots more. I intend to do so ASAP.

And because I want to go DAWless with my music setup ( #SynthstromDeluge FTW ) and I'd code for a living (working on it) I may switch back to Linux as well. After all I switched to Mac in 2012 - after many many years of "hardcore" usage - mainly because of Ableton and my attempt at "making it as a musician" and then as sound designer. No grammys so far....... Beforehand I used #Linux exclusively and made music anyway....

I feel I am going to miss some software.and the flawless Apple integration but given how everything (not just Apple) is turning to shit..... it may be time "to go back home". I'll keep using my iPad for music tho and not sure about ditching the iPhone. Android just doesn't cut it. I'll try to export/convert what I can.

Also, I have bought a split columnar keyboard and switched to Colemak DHm (matrix). Still learning but all pain and RSI is gone after a couple of weeks already! I am adjusting to it nicely and LOVING IT.

In the mean time I finished Zero 2 Production and finally started coding my itch to scratch #RustLang app with #Crux by Red Badger.

Cheers
