What do you bind to Q in #vim? (I'm assuming no one uses ex-mode these days)

Everyone is welcome to read, have fun and a good time!

So #Fediverse, tell me - are there any Mastodon clients you really like for the desktop? Specifically, I am hoping for something with a GUI, linux native, and has support for vim motions. The stretch goal would be something cross-platform.
I'll just download and test a bunch if I have to, but hoping one of you can save me the effort, because so far my search-engine-fu is not yielding any results regarding vim-motions. (which I concede is a bit of a long shot)

My #GNU #Linux Journey – Part 2: From Confusion to Control
I finally understood what groups are in Linux, especially the #wheel group that controls #sudo access.
I learned that on #Arch, you start as #root, because sudo isn't set up yet. So your first task is to create a user, install sudo, and configure it.
I had to install tools like #vim, #sudo, and others manually. This forced me to appreciate how Arch keeps things minimal by default.
What used to be confusing on other systems (why can't I install this?) became crystal clear: if something doesn’t work, it’s probably because I haven’t set it up yet – not because the OS is broken.
Every package I installed and configured taught me something new. Arch doesn’t just work – it teaches you why it works.
I'd stopped using Pocket many years ago since I didn't like having a reading list that's locked up in some service, but hearing the news about it got me thinking there must be a good way to read things later as Markdown
Sure enough, there's this extension for Obsidian:
https://github.com/DominikPieper/obsidian-ReadItLater
It would be nicer if Obsidian were FOSS, but since I can use the same files in VimWiki, Zettlr, Logseq, Foam, Markdown Oxide, etc., I'm fine with it for the time being — having generic text files is the main point for me
Je découvre NeoVim dans mon voyage vers Vim. Il faut absolument utiliser un plugin manager ? Je comprends rien. J'essaye juste d'avoir un LSP qui fonctionne.
La doc de NeoVim parle de `vim.lsp.config` : https://neovim.io/doc/user/lsp.html
Une personne sur son blog (https://lsp-zero.netlify.app/blog/lsp-config-without-plugins) parle d'un truc similaire avec :
-- ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
vim.lsp.config('luals', {
cmd = {'lua-language-server'},
filetypes = {'lua'},
root_markers = {'.luarc.json', '.luarc.jsonc'},
})
vim.lsp.enable('luals')
Et sur d'autres blogs ou quand, désespéré⋅e, on demande à ChatGPT, ça parle d'avoir un plugin manager.
J'ai essayé ça dans mon init.lua :
vim.lsp.config('pyls', {
cmd = {'pylsp'},
filetypes = {'python'},
root_markers = {'.git', 'setup.py', 'pyproject.toml', 'requirements.txt', '.venv'},
settings = {
plugins = {
jedi_completion = { fuzzy = true},
}
}
})
J'aimerais garder les choses simples tant que c'est possible et faire des choses que je comprends et non juste lancer une commande magique qui installe tout ce dont j'ai besoin.

Salut,
Pour celles et ceux qui vont aux #JDLL2025, je serai présent tout le week‑end avec deux interventions :
- Samedi à 10 h avec @nivopol pour retracer la standardisation du bépo dans la norme Afnor NF Z-71-300 : https://pretalx.jdll.org/jdll2025/talk/RAGSYH/ ;
- Dimanche à 17 h pour parler de sécurité des données et comment @CryptPad peut vous y aider : https://pretalx.jdll.org/jdll2025/talk/8WCPHN/.
Si vous souhaitez discuter d’un de ces deux sujets durant le week-end ou parler d’#xwiki, #cryptpad, #claviers, #vim, #ergol, ou autre, n’hésitez pas à me contacter sur le fedivers 👌
À bientôt ! 🙂

Je commence à apprendre Vim, je ne veux pas installer les plugins que tout le monde conseille car je veux être sûr⋅e de faire mon chemin à moi et de le configurer selon mes besoins.
On est d'accord que c'est normal que, à peine finis les 2 vimtutor et premiers chapitres, cherchant à pratiquer un peu ce que j'ai déjà vu en écrivant des petits scripts Python, je cherche un plugin d'autocomplete Python ?
Si oui, comment savoir lequel est vraiment cool ? J'ai trouvé qu'on recommande Jedi sur StackOverflow mais comment savoir s'il y a mieux ? Est-ce que je dois en tester plein ?
Des gens passés par là savent me dire ? 😊
V - Virtually every writer, no matter how seasoned or skilled, benefits from the steady hand of a good editor.
I - It’s apparent my docs are full of ambitious sentences that sprint before they stretch, metaphors that collapse under their own weight, and, commas that wander, like lost tourists.
M - Maybe that’s the point: Writing is less about perfection and more about being Vimproved.

I've been told when staging a home, do not leave behind political or religious material as some may get offended. Does this count? #vim
