I think his politics are pretty far right, at least based on this video: https://youtu.be/nvQ-ZY460WQ

Short answer is no, I think because what tools you need for programming change so much based on the development you’re doing. C++ developers need compiler toolchain stuff that Javascript developers would never need to look at and vice versa.

Curveball answer is that modern extensible IDEs with the power of language servers and plugins have kind of become this. I’d massively recommend properly getting into one of the following and learning how to configure new languages and plugins:

• VScode
• Neovim
• Emacs
• Helix

(Sure I’ve probably missed some great options, feel free to flame me on why notepad++ should be OPs first choice)

I wish I’d read this years ago! I’ve nearly bankrupted myself buying a new machine each time, thanks!

Yazi sounds ideal! Does river involve as much set up as dwm? I really love the ideas behind suckless tools but they normally involve a lot or set up to configure hoe I like.

Never heard of river but looks really cool! Come to think of it, I haven’t heard or a bunch of this stuff- yazi looks really neat
