@mms So /only/ about 8 years since I started using it regularly, but I seem to remember the biggest issues were:- Muscle memory for copy and paste shortcuts (C-c, C-v) were very hard to adjust from, plus the kill/yank terminology was confusing.- That C-g is normally the way to get yourself out of a confusing situation, and that seems very non-obvious.- Mark and Point, and how to C-space to start selecting text, the idea that you weren't holding something down constantly to select text was weird.- The naming of buffers, windows and frames. So alien.

@ljwritesI have both Windows (Alt Codes) and Emacs (Unicode) macros stored in my keyboard for Italian accented capital letters (À, È, É, Ì, Ò, Ù), ~ and `Plans are to also add ellipsis and some dashes for both again as well, sooner or later.There's also the GUI+Shift+S for Windows Snipping Tool, the audio (and mic) on/off, Emacs M-w, C-w, C-y and a few more things.

🎉 What's New in Org Social! 🎉This month the community has been buzzing about LoRa radio communications, members shared deep Emacs workflows, including GNUS for email, AUCTeX for papers, BQN/ngn/k array languages with Org Babel, pdf-tools, whisper.el voice dictation tricks, and org-alert debugging on Termux/Android. The org-publish vs Hugo debate sparked up, with one member proudly running a website built 100% with org-mode and elisp.The spirit of digital freedom ran strong: deleting big tech accounts, supporting EU tech independence, and celebrating that "in plain text, identity verification doesn't exist and never will."Also, org-social.el v2.11 was released with bug fixes found by the community itself.And yes, there were cat photos 🐱If you love Emacs and plain text freedom, join us!For more information: https://github.com/tanrax/org-social#emacs #orgmode #orgsocial

Question for Emacs wizards. I found a strange thing which I could not understand after reading the documentation (https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Initial-Options.html) and even after reading the startup files, shipped with my Emacs 30.2.If I use the -q option — Emacs will add site-lisp directories to the load-path. But with -Q option — there are no site-lisp catalogs in the load-path. Why is this happens? Note: the option --no-site-lisp is not used in the both examples. So, as I understood after reading the https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/eintr/Site_002dwide-Init.html, even with --no-site-file (or -Q) the site-lisp catalogs should be added to the load-path in the both cases #Emacs #EmacsLisp #elisp #AskFedi

Discord wants your face; Org Social just wants you to be free. In plain text, identity verification doesn't exist and never will.Freedom on the internet!#emacs #freedom #orgmode #orgsocial

🎉 What’s New in Org Social! 🎉This month the Org Social community has been talking about Emacs workflows and packages, including daily-use tools like denote, TRAMP, eglot, mu4e, and elfeed, as well as specialized packages like beardbolt (Rust disassembly), versuri (music lyrics search), whisper.el (voice dictation), and elfeed-score (RSS scoring).Technical discussions covered functional programming (learning Haskell and Common Lisp), AI-assisted development with Claude Code, music playback with mpd/mpdel in Emacs, web browsing without JavaScript in eww, and embedded development with Renode integration. Members also participated in the Emacs Carnival sharing their goals, including learning new languages, exploring agentic AI, and contributing more to the Emacs community through blogs and talks.If you don't like these topics, don't join!For more information: https://github.com/tanrax/org-social#emacs #orgsocial #orgmode

@andre123Figo!Prova a buttarla su Kickstarter (o simili).

@mms I learned just the basics for very tiny adjustments and settings. I think you're right. The day I'll tackle a LISP family language I'll give it another shot.
