I have one and it's very nice.

Many people get it, it is quite normal, I think. The trick to avoid is to practice mental hygiene - don't let the shit come in. Ponder over things that you can influence, be a kind person and help others. That way you see the world in a better light and it's good for your sleep. You won't solve the problems of humankind anyway. And get out of industries that aren't kind to the elder.

That's why I included Perl, it is always there. Just don't code as if you were in the nineties and Perl is a perfectly legitimate language, even more so for shell tasks. Bad and good doesn't depend so much on the language but the coder.

Why not use Perl or python for scripting tasks? Bash script is terrible imo.

Fzf doesn't need fish, though. I use it with bash.

I wonder, what 'works with the fediverse ' could mean for a messenger and what could be features not already implemented by different messengers, like elements or the very signal.

See what happens,when this attitude makes it go away!

And language tool is a great option! I use it for many different languages and support for it can be found in many places. Even Thunderbird has first class support for it, these days!

Good question! I'd say that the fediverse is semantically much more complex and thus allows for more progress. It's like the difference between gopher and the web.

Stable, in this context, only means, that there are no major version jumps. So, you won't update from, say, version 3.4.9 to 4.0 if that comes out, but instead to 3.4.10, which provides stability, but no new features. It depends a lot on your usage profile, if this is important to you. In that sense, the AUR usually isn't very stable – but that can be seen as a good thing. If it is significant, typically, you can find pinned versions, too, just as you are still able to download python 2 (not supported for years, but it's there, stable).

Maybe you should consider listening to different people.

Why do you assume, they had no such concern? There were seals to ensure authenticity and avoid man in the middle attacks. There were encoded messages, smoke, flags, light and sound signals. Trusted couriers, pigeons, etc ...
