I’ve seen your tool box. I’ve shared some that may be good additions to your shop ;)

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•I started a Forum (leaving Discord) - would love if you would check it out!
1·2 months agoI can see how this can fail but you can only fail if you try so I’ll be optimistic for once and give it a try. At least I’ll create an account in the hope to not stay alone for too long. I’d love to feel the old forum vibes again. A place where people have real engaging discussions and where we help each others while learning from these interactions is all I hope for. Other options to date don’t entirely fill the bill for me. A come back from the etiquette would be wonderful as well.
You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one 🎶. Or am I?
Alot has been built around notmuch so its integration is better. On a daily use, I’ve never noticed any issues or latency with notmuch in neomutt though. I was considering Alot as well when looking for a terminal email client but my understanding was that it doesn’t allow for IMAP folders creation within the app. You have to use mbsync and that would slightly friction with my work email workflow. Please let me know if this has changed or if I’ve misinterpreted things. Also, while the neomutt documentation can be quite intimidating, I felt the Alot one to be too limited.
For calendar invites I use mutt-ics to display them nicely and a keybinding associated to a simple khal to seamlessly add them to my calendar. For contacts I use abook.
After years in Neomutt I’m still open to other tools though. Why would you recommend that Alot over Neomutt?

3DPrinting@lemmy.world•Sitting here waiting for my first Bambu A1 print...English
3·2 months ago3D printing is one of those rabbit holes where you never stop learning, and that usually means upgrading or switching machines at some point :) People buy what makes sense for their needs, their values, and their budget. It’s definitely night and day between an old Ender 3 and newer printers from any brand. I want to make it clear again before someone doesn’t read the entire post and turns it into a sterile debate: I’m not saying one brand is better than another, but I think it’s fair to push back on misconceptions (“people saying if you just want plug n play - go Bambu”) - especially when influencers are paid to promote products. Feature-wise and setup-wise, comparable models from both manufacturers are extremely close.
I’m genuinely glad you’ve found your new toy :) Have a lot of fun with it ! Make sure to follow some very good advice posted by others in here Re: upgrades and filaments.

3DPrinting@lemmy.world•Sitting here waiting for my first Bambu A1 print...English
6·2 months agoNot trying to start another flame war, but I was just talking with someone who runs a small print farm and had a similar misconception about Creality setup. Contrary to what people often think, Creality printers are plug-and-play these days too. Nothing against Bambu (at least on that front ^^), but they’re way more pushed by influencers, which makes it seem like Creality hasn’t evolved. Honestly, both are very close in terms of hardware, performance, and ease of use.
Enjoy your new printer!
Sorry, I will not talk about browsers in your list because I’ve tried them and my personal preference goes to chawan for these reasons:
- has CSS layout support
- has HTML5 support with various encodings
- can display Inline images in terminals that support Sixel or Kitty protocols (opt-in feature)
- offers basic JavaScript support via QuickJS (opt-in)
- supports HTTP(S), SFTP, FTP, Gopher, Gemini…
- has built-in viewers for Markdown, man pages, and directory listings
- has Incremental loading
- uses multi-processing, so several buffers can be loaded at once
- offer mouse support, bookmarks, and protocol handling extensible by users
If you want to check another option, there’s also brow.sh.
Hope this helps in your web terminal journey :)

Linux@lemmy.ml•Bookmark vault/archive links tool that is outside the browser
1·2 months agoThere’s actually dedicated tools for this specific need like bmm and buku. Browser-agnostic bookmark managers are very nice for different purposes like multi browsers use. The idea is not to use browsers offline but to manage bookmarks outside of the browser as mentioned by OP.
Comparing to other tools they have the advantage to be dedicated to bookmark management, meaning they offer all features inherent to such task.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Bookmark vault/archive links tool that is outside the browser
1·2 months agoYeah, there’s always a trend (like syncing everything and storing everything in a cloud), but fortunately there’s also always less known alternatives for the “weird” people :D

I’m just not sure it can handle folders, but you could use tags as folder names to replicate this behavior ;)

3DPrinting@lemmy.world•Washington wants your 3D printer to spy on you - here's the billEnglish
2·2 months agoCreality Helper Script is a must have. My K1C has run it through the very first second. Getting as much open source (for a reasonable budget) and control on my marines is the main decision factor for my purchases.
Ok. I didn’t find anything specific for Kobra 3 v2 (though I didn’t spend more than 5 minutes ^^), but I came across this profile for Kobra 3. Maybe you’ll get lucky with it… https://www.printables.com/model/982339-anycubic-kobra-3-orca-profile-v2-tested-verified-w
With the number of (custom) printers supported by Orca you picked my interest :) What’s your printer?

Linux@lemmy.ml•What folders do you make in addition to the default ones ?
31·4 months agoDrawing the line between each category indeed takes some time. Our brain is not use to this approach anymore. Perseverance is key, but it’s kind of a commitment.

6·4 months agoYour organization will vary with your usage. If you’re looking for something suitable for work, I would highly recommend the PARA approach. https://fortelabs.com/blog/para/
I’ve tweaked it to my needs. Combined with fzf, it makes my workflow so smooth and efficient. https://www-gem.codeberg.page/sys_stay_organized/

It didn’t scare me more than “Zathura” ^^ Hope it will eventually get the love it deserves.
Thanks! I think Sioyek is really overlooked.
Unless you have already made a decision and feel strong about Zathura, I’d like to mention Sioyek. It’s definitely an underrated pick for terminal PDF readers. It works just as well as Zathura, and can even go wayyyy beyond it.

Glad you found something interesting :)
