I’d like to think that there’s a certain tipping point after which most things will fall into place and stuff will just generally work apart from the occasional bug or breakage.

I have both Windows 11 and Linux mint on the same PC with 8 GB of RAM. I use it for making slides, research, watching videos, internet browsing and gaming (valorant, counter strike). Windows 11 isn’t unusable at all with 8GB of RAM. It really depends on what your use case is, also depends on the amount of bloatware you have


One is a backdoor, another is a bug. How are they similar?


Democracy, they said…


That’s hate-maxxing


My question was what freedom the guy in the article is missing at present. It was a genuine question, not a bad faith/troll comment.


What freedom isn’t he getting?
Edit: yeah, downvote the genuine question instead of providing any opinions or answers.


When I was very young, we moved from our home village to the capital city. Pretty long distance, moved a lot.


Wouldn’t be surprised.


Typst syntax is already simple enough. Why add an unnecessary layer of abstraction
Probably true everywhere in the world, but may vary across fields of occupation.


Well, Typst isn’t directly comparable to plain TeX given how low level plain TeX is. Typst also poses itself as a LaTeX alternative, rather than that of plain TeX. So, I think, it’d be more prudent to compare between Typst and LaTeX.
For beginners, Typst is much easier to get into compared to LaTeX. Typst is also much faster at compiling documents. Error messages are also clearer in Typst. Typst itself is compiled to a single binary, so local installation is as easy as just downloading it and putting it into a directory that’s available in $PATH.
I might as well also mention that the Typst web app runs on webassembly (meaning that the browser does the compiling instead of some server), so there is no compile duration limit like that of Overleaf.


If I have to see you whining about windows, you have to see me shilling for linux.
