Thank you for the awesome comment.

As mentioned a few times here, its between Kate and Sublime although it looks like it will be Sublime unless Zed becomes good soon.

I did not renew my office license since a year for this exact reason. Though it is good, I could not justify it anymore. I am slow-exploring Calc.

I am done with Visual Studio faster and before other lesser dealbreakers. I will get to use it in any work environments anyway. Personal and OSS Dev will be done on a Jetbrains Rider.

Wrt One drive, I am keeping it as an eventual piece of puzzle for a nice backup strategy along side others like Borg etc. I will explore Nextcloud once again.

Thanks for sharing. Agree, In had a few of these separate running, dual booting episodes and moved only now completely due to the right mental space and bandwidth.

I proclaimed multiple times in my life that Linux will always have less than 5% desktop users and that is perfectly fine. Forget normal people, even the most tech savvy users could never make the move.

For those of us who do, after the navigating the technical challenges, elitism, and hostility, it is indeed a lovely journey. I know everything will not be smooth and there will days of halted usage due to some breakages. The system if setup in a sensible way just like a server, it could reduce this friction to some extent.

Python professionally (may be Go too)

Go, C++, Erlang for personal and OSS projects.

Glad to know your experience. Once I have the stable resilient setup I will definitely explore flatpaks. Thank you again!

Absolutely yes, I definitely have my eye on becoming a polyglot dev in the next 5 years. So it is quite the journey, but I am in it for the long run. Switching to Linux was also the easiest way to do this as I realized.

Thank you for the vote of confidence. Glad to know it is easy. I play it at a glacial pace, probably once or twice a year, so I have many months before I embark on that journey.

I found this name, but was not sure if it was the one. Thanks again!

Whoa, thank you for the elaboration. As I said in another comment, I was vim user for a short time but it may take a long time to use it again. I don't rule out vim from my OSS life. Who knows what will transpire :)

Definitely, although it may take a while :).

Yeah, my usage was not particularly deep. It would take while to see any issue, if at all. I would certwinly post here if there are any major troubles.

Thank you for the welcome :)

My rationalization for LibreOffice Calc is — As I see it, I have never used too many formulas and the complex reporting, but for organizing data. For example, I had a sheet called large-purchases where I had listed down all the things I want to buy, and then tracked things estimated price, actually price, total amount remaining, etc. If you see, it is just a database table with a fancy entry and some calculations. So Calc can do all that simply and for something more, I can either learn more of Calc and/or just use a db and turn it into simple personal app.

Yes, great times for us. It takes time to get up to speed, but the important thing is to keep at it.
