I switched to Typst a year ago and never looked back

Why not just use podman at this point?

They are adopting to containerd standard, not sure why negative sentiment

Where did you see that? I just did a deep dive into podman/quadlets/bootc/composefs and never once seen a mention of that. A google search also didn’t bring anything like that up.

I think the "They" mentioned was Docker, not Podman. That Docker was adopting the containerd standard.

Jup that’s definitely it, not sure how I got it that wrong.

It's not just you. I interpreted it similarly

Came here thinking this was about OS/2.

Website says "native" but it's an Electron app.


Is it possible that the [x Telemetry] [x Electron] and [x Subscription] means that the app does not have those things?


If that's so, it's really poorly communicated. I strongly recommend full sentences for that.


it's exactly that, just less good choice for webUI, it was not clear to me at first either


I second this. To me the styling looks like tags and conveys the opposite meaning.


* noted


It says (No Electron) now. They probably fixed it.


It is not electron. Look at the source code.


The bullets appear to be suggestive tags not an inverse-feature list. Which is the confusion, perhaps changing the “x” to a red or “cancel” symbol (circle with line through it).


"Non Features: No Electron. No telemetry. No subscription."


Compiles to Go or transpiles to Go?


Either is fine.

``Formally speaking, "Transpiler" is a useless word''

You are free to use whatever word you want. Even "bloopydoopy", if you so wish. But "compiles" is best.


Bad name. Doesn't install. Doesn't work well on macOS.


But it's blazing fast though


How is this even usable with 8GB RAM?


macOS is significantly better built than Windows.


People keep claiming this, but my experience is that it's pretty similar. My mom's PC accidentally had only 4GB of RAM for the past 5 years (whoops), and we only noticed it a month ago because the cheap SSD was finally dying due to heavy swapping.


The kernel is technically inferior to NT, especially with memory management (see OOM on macOS while NT will keep going).


The kernel isn't that relevant compared to all the absolute garbage layered on top. The most efficient kernel is pointless when you have copilot and a UI built in React sucking down all your system resources.


You've stitched together a contradictory grab bag of reforms from opposite ends of the political spectrum without a single coherent theory connecting them, which tells me you're emotionally venting about dysfunction rather than actually thinking about how power and representation work.


  1. Which reforms are contradictory?
  2. I’m not convinced of term/age limits, but I believe I've heard all these reforms proposed at least by the US left - which of the reforms have you not heard proposed by the left?


I came here to say this! I switched to Typst a couple of months ago and won't be going back.


Bun is the new Yarn?
