The price point is super painful. 2k would have been bad enough but I would have considered it. It’s a no go at $3,300 for me.

There are pretty good terminal alternatives to gitlens - lazygit being the one I go to. I like it far more that gitlens.

Jupyter is harder, I haven't found anything that gets me there yet.


Fidelity does as well, although the message switches to state only read the code if you've called them directly.


Does Helix fit that bill for you? It's fast, modal and very little config required.

I think there's also a fork if you can't let go of the VIM bindings.


Helix is a non-starter until it has plugins. Which is taking YEARS longer than it should to get implemented.

The fuck-off-if-you-don't-agree-with-me dictator of the project doesn't help either.


When you’re just running out the door with your kids it’s hard to pick up the full frame behemoth.

I’ve been considering a m43 for that reason.


Yeah. I’ve got three kids.


Check out helix for a good example of this too. Not quite as visible, but entering certain modes gives you a list of available shortcuts you can use from there.

Space for example opens a list with ten or twenty commands that remind you how to open the file picker, open editor list, problems window, etc…


As someone that used to agree with you, I’ve come to admit there are benefits.

Information density and shortcut availability are two of the big ones.

But the biggest for me is composability. I can query any data using their cli and open it in visidata nearly instantly. Just pipe it in. The interface is awesome compared to other query viewers I’ve found. It makes it easier to drill in and see results. Quick pivoting, Filtering and more


I would if you want to use it as backup. But if you just use it to display photos and have another process for sync it’s absolutely fantastic!

To me it’s better than any other interface I’ve tried. Commercial or home lab.


The chances that he wins on any given day are the same, but not that he will win within x days. Right?


Not right now. I believe there was an article recently saying custom browser may soon be allowed on iOS, but nothing right now.
