# "Using LibreOffice and other Free software for documents as a lawyer"I was asked recently about how I get on using LibreOffice for document-related legal work, and I promised to write down some thoughts.The short answer is that I use a mix of LibreOffice and other FOSS tools, and I’m very positive about it, with no particular concerns.If you have questions, please do ask!https://neilzone.co.uk/2025/11/using-libreoffice-and-other-free-software-for-documents-as-a-lawyer/#LibreOffice #Linux #FOSS #lawfedi #vim #git #Markdown
Vim was released 33 years ago. To celebrate, try this: open Vim and type :smile to see an Easter egg. Happy birthday to the best programmers text editor out there!!! #unix #apple #linux #vim
This month, the #Vim carnival was a FAIL.So, for November, I won’t host a carnival again, but instead, I’ll start a new Vim project inspired by #InktoberBoosts are welcome 🙏🏼 #terminal #opensource #FLOSS #Linux #BSD #devops #editor https://lazybea.rs/vim-adp
Vim has always been charityware. Any money that was donated to the project went to ICCF Holand, an organization that helps marginalized children in Uganda.Sadly, 2 years after Bram's passing, this charity will be dissolved. Future donations will be sent to a different charity called Kuwasha: https://groups.google.com/g/vim_announce/c/pUNbNXBLbKwBram's work over the years has done much good for disadvantaged communities. Whether you use Vim or Neovim, consider following their original creator's example in whatever way you can.#vim #neovim

@rivercityrandom Writing a novel in #emacs is quite straightforward and not very different from, uh, writing a novel.Here is how I do it: starting with chapter 1 I would hit the following keys: Shift+C, h, a, p, t, e, r, space, 1. Hope that helps.
@chesheerConsidering the ratio, 73kB vs. 439MB, @libreoffice is then the best file compressor ever, presumably.How have you exported it?Have you instead tried to simply unzip the original ODS?
A Vim beginner struggling to remember commands or mappings could find an in-editor cheatsheet pretty useful: https://github.com/lifepillar/vim-cheat40#vim #neovim
@esserci Sorry, but I'm not interested in controversy. I just want to help solve what I think is a problem. But I don't want to start a controversy in public because, in any case, the problem doesn't directly concern me. @filippodb@amministratore@anze3db@fedidevs
@kathsone that instance was created pretending to be the "Mastodon Italiana" instance, as if it were the official Italian server. It was a clever move because it attracted a huge number of users, but now they might as well stop using these tricks!
Unfortunately, it seems to me that administrators are tempted to confine their users in a cage where they try to keep following the same people from the same instance and the same promotional accounts.
You're absolutely correct! (Great, now I sound like ChatGPT)
That said I think that's where implementations like NodeBB and Mbin can apply a bit of pressure and act as intermediaries... we want federation to work well too, and we have to straddle both federation styles!
That gives a somewhat unique perspective on problems and solutions.
I honestly feel if the two paradigms did a little bit of effort on interoperation, we could figure this out. But all sides of this atm are like "the other side is doing it wrong" and refusing to look at this.
@kathsone @esserci @anze3db @fedidevs please note that m1 admin @filippodb & @amministratore don't even made a single starter kit, so your message is incorrect, the only official starter kit used for new users is this one: https://fedidevs.com/s/NzQ2/ other lists are fanmade selections.and they'll probably add more users or maybe improve the descriptions.In our selection we really want to add international accounts as soon as possible, we just added mastodonmigration and fediversesymbol
