stibIf I have a <a href="https://aus.social/tags/codeberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#codeberg</a> account set up, with a verified <a href="https://aus.social/tags/ssh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ssh</a> key on my account and the corresponding public and private keys in `~/.ssh/`, is there a way that I can make it so that it doesn't ask me for my keyphrase every time I push? I'm sure VSCode could do this, but since I've switched to <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Helix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Helix</a>, which doesn't have git built-in I've been manually doing the git stuff. My knowledge of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/cryptography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cryptography</a> and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/git" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#git</a> are well and truly at the 'barely enough to get myself into trouble' level. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AskFedi</a>

ToddZ ⓋThis was kinda nice the other night, so I'll try again:1.) I used some alone time for a solid nap. 2.) I went out for vegan tacos and margaritas. 3.)

DoerkSome time ago I wrote about using Helix editor on FreeBSD. I liked the „batteries included“ approach and I was curious to see whether Helix could be an actual replacement for Neovim.I really tried and I forced myself to like Helix. And yes, Helix’s approach might be perfect for newbies who have never worked before with vim. But at some point I found myself on a customer’s server, desperately pressing ‚d‘ and wondering why it didn’t delete the character under my cursor. At this point I decided to dump Helix. The fact that some commands are slightly different, but not completely, made it hard for me to switch between systems and made me look like a complete idiot when editing a config while sharing the screen with a client.BTW is there meanwhile an option to run lua-language-server on FreeBSD? I am using kickstart with nvim and it’s complaining that it can’t install the lsp because it’s not supported on this platform.<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/helix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#helix</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/nvim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nvim</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/neovim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#neovim</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#freebsd</a>

Paul BuetowThis is a great introductory blog post about the Helix modal editor. It's also been my first choice for over a year now. I am really looking forward to the Steel plugin system, though. I don't think I need a lot of plugins, but one or two would certainly be on my wish list.<a href="https://felix-knorr.net/posts/2025-03-16-helix-review.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://felix-knorr.net/posts/2025-03-16-helix-review.html</a><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/HelixEditor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HelixEditor</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Helix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Helix</a>

Bozhidar Batsov (a.k.a. Bug)I've been playing with <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/nvim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nvim</a> for the past month, but I'm pretty close to giving up on it. While I like the general editing model, I find it quite frustrating you need a ton of plugins to get something basic done. Getting started with <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Emacs</a> seems trivial by comparison. (and I know that's not easy)<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Helix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Helix</a> seems like a very promising (and simple) alternative to nvim, but it misses some basic functionality that makes it a bit impractical right now. It has huge potential, though, and I can easily see it becoming a major player in the real of programmer's editors.

robinm<a href="https://fosstodon.org/@dammn" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@dammn</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@samurro" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@samurro</a> It's definitively worth a try, even if you don't stick with it. The keybindings make much more sense (especially `g`, `m` and `space`), lsp and tree sitters just work (you only need to install them and that's all. Helix alone is what you get with nvim+20ish core plugins including telescope, meson, vim-surround, multi-cursors, ...I personnaly do prefer the action-movement of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/NeoVIM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NeoVIM</a> to the selection-action of <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/helix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#helix</a>, but the later definitively is worth a try.
