To be fair that guide is a lot of big command-line prompts for anybody not used to using the terminal, even if it's all copy-paste

Wow that's awesome! Props to etnoy for creating such a polished PR for this feature

I can't wait to simply point immich at my existing photo structure :)

Working well with version control is such a killer feature!

Certain platforms (not necessarily in the EDA space) like to make 5000 line diff after just opening a project and thinking about changing a comment

I meant "just a text editor" in the sense that it's not a full IDE with compilers and build system, versioning, project management etc. But now with plugins Kate does these things too

I use Kate mostly for config files or interpreted code like python, bash etc, and just launch the code from the terminal (or Kate's built-in terminal 🙂 )

For compiled code I like KDevelop, if that can be considered lightweight. Vscode / vscodium is nice too but not exactly lightweight by many people's standards (though I haven't tried it with compiled code)

For RPi the two major causes of issues (in my experience) are low spec power supplies and low spec SD-cards.

Power supplies drop voltage when the loads gets too high, which is especially pronounced with high power USB devices like external harddrives.

SD-cards tend to get worn out or give write errors after enough writes. Class 10 SD cards are recommended for both speed and longevity. And ideally try to avoid write intensive stuff on the SD card

What are build targets in the context of Kate? Kate itself is "just" a text editor. Related to a plugin maybe?

+1 for Ludusavi, it's been awesome on Windows too.

They added Backup Retention, too now, that's awesome. Pretty sure that wasn't a thing last time I used it

Protip: KDE's Dolphin is available for Windows.

The Windows integration isn't perfect, but it's very useful nonetheless. Multiple tabs and the Ctrl+I filter alone makes it worthwhile.

On a related note: KDE's Kate text editor is also available on Windows and it works GREAT! So great that KDE eV has published it on the Windows store, making it easy to install

Thanks for sharing, LibrePCB looks amazing, much simpler than KiCAD.

Last time I used KiCAD (admittedly quite some years ago) it was amazingly powerful but kinda overwhelming to get started

From Wikipedia

.. until the application was sold to the payment processor Daegu Limited, part of Parity.com, which changed the application user interface and content,[7][8] which led the free software community to develop an ad- and tracker-free fork called 'Organic Maps' in response.[

"On a DVD"... 😅 in some decades that might as well be like saving your video to 8mm film. Gotta call some specialist antique dealer on the other side of the continent to find the right tech and right adapters to play it back on modern hardware

Surely contributing to Wine and running their windows apps on Linux would yield better faster results than re-implement Windows from scratch. I don't quite see who the target audience is
