i tried for 1 1/2 hours to set t_CO=8 in vimrc and gave up. wherever that variable is overwritten is buried deep in a truckload of spaghetti. after searching forums the only working solution i found was downloading a theme that only uses terminal colors by reference that somebody had to create to work around this problem. vim is misbehaved garbage that relies on messy hacks to do anything sane.

emacs

trash piled upon trash

how is it that both of these editors were fine 10 years ago and now they're broken garbage? i used vim for half of my life and never had these problems until the last couple years.

i autoload a project specific vimrc in my project folder where i set any defaults i want for the project/language. it gets loaded after my user .vimrc.

good post OP

pic?
>>
>>108691016
i don't know how to capture the problem with a pic. if i tell it to resize the frame to 80 columns it resizes it it 53 like it doesn't have the size of the font right. it only happens when i use the window scaling option in xfce. when i disable window scaling it works fine. everthing scales correctly except the content frames or boxes whatever.

>>108691101
use real distros (debian/arch/fedora/mint) and you won't have these problems
other problems aren't really getting worse, and 3x more ram use than 10 years ago is definitely not a linux-specific thing
wayland has been rough, luckily you can just stick to x11

vim is vibecoded trash these days, do not update
drew is a retard but he was right to fork it
>opinionated as fuck and opinions are all shit
you might be retarded too
>>
>>108690853
Are you using gayland or something?
>>
>>108691508
whatever the debian xfce task defaults to. i'm guessing x11. what's odd is that vim only has problems with vimrc at startup. when i source it with ":so %" it works as expected. i'm not sure how xfce window scaling is implemented but i know emacs scales properly in gnome and kde so it's probably an xfce problem.

Vim is accepting LLM garbage
Emacs has always been a GNU meme in my opinion
neither is Linux. shit like Pipewire is good
use Neovim
OP is a fag

>>108690853
>gui spazzes out and becomes unusable
Recently, on one of my laptops, I've experienced Emacs getting into weird states where keyboard input get's fucked up. It only happens in X11 though. On my desktop which is also using X11, it's fine.

Back to my laptop, I switched to Wayland and the weird input glitches stopped, but Wayland has its own separate issues. However, for the sake of a stable Emacs, I'm using Wayland on my laptop for now.
