Linkarzu Podcast | Neovim, macOS, Emacs, Linux, Terminals and more.

I recently asked in the Neovim subreddit if any plugin/distro/core maintainers would be interested in participating in these casual interviews, and HiPhish was kind enough to reach out to share more about the plugin rainbow-delimiters.nvim.In this video you will not just learn about the plugin, but many other things, like, what's HiPhish's OS of choice, the way to manage Neovim plugins not with a package manager but using git submodules, and much more.Link to the video:https://youtu.be/e8IHILxKqZsWhat's the best way to support me?https://linkarzu.com/about/#youre-a-fraud-why-do-you-ask-for-money-isnt-youtube-ads-enoughTimeline:00:00:00 - rainbow-delimiters.nvim demo00:05:15 - fork of a different plugin00:07:37 - change strategy to local00:09:02 - original plugin didnt use tree-sitter00:09:30 - downside of tree-sitter support for each lang00:09:45 - open a PR to support new languages00:12:20 - do you get a lot of requests for new langs?00:13:15 - burdain of managing open source repo00:14:45 - support aspect of open source00:16:23 - future of the plugin00:17:46 - how long using neovim00:19:00 - neovim didn't start with lua00:19:55 - why start using vim in the first place00:24:07 - vim before touch typing00:26:05 - keyboard keychron k100:29:25 - thoughts on split keyboards00:30:25 - operating system void linux00:31:55 - running void linux for 5 years00:32:14 - why not arch00:32:59 - why left macOS, no updates00:34:32 - are you forced to use mac in companies?00:35:45 - thoughts on Windows00:36:43 - linkarzu switching to linux?00:38:47 - coworkers understand neovim?00:40:08 - open source to have control00:41:23 - screen sharing and neovim?00:42:38 - thoughts on emacs00:44:45 - neovim and python00:46:51 - videogames street of rage 400:48:04 - reading books00:50:31 - librera00:51:35 - clear cookies to fight doomscrolling00:53:20 - note taking app neovim00:54:10 - linux window manager kde plasma bspwm00:58:05 - x11 wayland hperland01:00:24 - thoughts on single app on screen?01:02:00 - monocle mode in bspwm01:02:35 - terminal alacritty01:04:55 - thoughts on ghostty01:07:15 - thoughts on tmux01:09:30 - own neovim config or distribution01:12:12 - book practical vim01:13:10 - how do you know what you don't know01:16:00 - nvim-cmp or blink.cmp01:17:03 - neovim package manager git submodules01:20:40 - why git submodules01:21:50 - hiphish blog01:23:40 - neovim file explorer nerdtree01:24:00 - neovim colorscheme solarized or selenized01:24:55 - tool to push to github fugitive.vim01:26:00 - thoughts on AI01:29:45 - HTMX and alpine.js01:33:00 - neovim and javascript coding01:33:35 - currently learning elixir01:34:30 - favorite CLI tools01:35:50 - favorite linux applications01:36:20 - favorite neovim plugins neotest01:38:25 - fugitive telescope vim-dirvish vim-win01:41:00 - hiphish config in dotfiles01:41:45 - homelab01:44:25 - install rainbow-delimiters.nvim
