installing emacs day 1

>>107691763
I left the Emacs Distros section in, but I replaced the Spacemacs and Doom links with:
https://github.com/caisah/emacs.dz
Without the "Emacs Distros" section being present, I didn't think it was clear that that link leads to a list of Emacs configurations.

4g.el - browse 4chan with org-mode

>Installation
1. Download 4g.el - https://tilde.club/~gg/4g/4g.el
2. Copy it to the same directory as your init.el or .emacs .
3. Add the following Elisp to your init.el or .emacs to load 4g.el .

(load (concat (file-name-directory user-init-file) "4g.el"))

(I'm not the author of 4g.el. I'm just a fan. Until the author publishes an official git repo, I will host a stable link to 4g.el so people can try it.)

- What OS do you use?
- What text editors have you used before?
- How familiar are you with Lisps (of any dialect)?

How's that going?

- linux, debian/nixos
- sublime text, codium, vim, nvim, clion/pycharm, visual studio
- Not familiar but I will fare okay
Had some work to do, I am back
got emacs installed, tutorial finished, now init.el and packages/extensions
Also maybe this is a bit stupid, but I should go with default keybindings for most of the them I think. I use caps_lock as ctrl btw.

>>107692328
I can't get the hang of vim/nvim and others are laggy (well I should have expected that with DDR4 8GB ram) and something I can't point to about sublime text always irks me

>tranime pedo
quite redundant considering that only raging tranime pedos care about stupid shit like emacs configs and lisp in the first place

>>107692328
As someone who used to absolutely hate the default keybindings, I have to say now that it's not as bad as I once thought. The beginner version of me would see a key sequence like:

C-x t t C-x C-f

and think, "How tf am I supposed to remember all that?"

Now, I see it as a kind of composable language.
C-x t t -- means do the next operation in a new tab
C-x C-f -- means open a file (or "find" a file in emacs parlance)

=Enabling which-key-mode help a lot, too.= The tree of command possibilities that used to be invisible becomes visible, and Emacs starts making more sense. Also, I actually use evil most of the time, but a lot of the default keybindings are still there, so I use both Vim and Emacs style keybindings simultaneously. I used classic Vim for a long time before I switched to Emacs, and I still like that style of editing. However, VimScript is caveman tier compared to Elisp so I'm happy that I can have the best of both worlds by using Emacs+Evil.
