Right, that… I have no idea of how the /r/syncthing crowd does it, but we could certainly ask…

I think I once used it to retrieve a file that I had accidentally deleted, but I don’t remember the specifics. I need to dig into it more.

Huh, interesting… I hadn’t thought about that before.

You can look through the trash can if you set it up, but yeah, I sync at least 3 machines in such a way that 1 is typically offline at the time of the other 2 syncing.

Huh? Are we not all trying to promote Lemmy and reduce Reddit’s power? What examples do you have? Being nonprofit and especially FOSS is a huge factor.

So sorry about your finger pain. I don’t know if this can be self-hosted, but https://github.com/jatinkrmalik/vocalinux has been pretty incredible.

Sorry, edited; I actually meant Xed, the stock text editor in Mint. It’s proving to ve good enough when paired with Meld via Nemo Compare!

1. That should be on by default.
2. It has no features that Xed doesn’t have that I use and takes up more system resources (it’s noticeably slower).
3. It’s far more confusing in its design with the project-pane thing which keeps constantly closing between reboots, and it has no recent-files menu section, which I rely on a lot (and if there is a plugin for this, I shouldn’t need a plugin for such a common feature).

I’ve made my decision for the time being. I am aware of Zed and can always change in the future should the need arise, but Kate frankly looked better, anyway.

Some people tried to get me into Zed as well, and that was sure not a fun experience seeing how heavily pro-AI it was. I literally ended up just returning to the built-in Zed.
