    Blender uses Alt+A.

    It consistently uses Alt as a modifier to execute inverse operations. I to insert a keyframe, Alt+I to delete it. Ctrl+F to set a text filter/search, Alt+F to clear it. Ctrl+P to set parent, Alt+P to clear it. H to hide selected objects, Shift+H to hide unselected objects, Alt+H to unhide all. {G,R,S} to move/rotate/scale, Alt+{G,R,S} to reset transformations. It’s not exactly industry standard, but internally consistent that makes learning it easy.

    Ctrl+D to deselect is stupid.





  • From the torrent, the deluge, the unending tidal wave of this exact meme in various formats. The “exit vim difficult” meme must constitute at least 50% of online content regarding *nix and *nix-adjacent systems. It is so stale that Slackware considers it outdated. It is the “mayonnaise is spicy” equivalent of funny. It is the white bread, picket fence stereotype of meme culture, yes offense. I’d like to say that it’s beating a dead horse, but the horse is gone; its flesh has been tenderized, pulverized, and evaporated from the sum total of energy imparted by the constant beating. If the heat death of the universe were to happen tomorrow, and from the uniform vacuum energy a Boltzmann brain were to spontaneously form, it will have been already tired of this meme.

    But to answer the question, it was either that, or the big

    type :q<Enter> to exit
    

    splash that appears when I open it with an empty buffer, and following its instructions.

    No offense to you or your house, but I’m really tired of this meme.

    Right now I’m in a bit of a bind because part of my workflow relies on exporting particular layers and layer groups as separate images. GIMP has a plugin for it, but it uses Python 2, no longer developed, and likely won’t work in GIMP 3. If Krita can do this, I’m switching immediately.

    You are in the wrong audience for that, and I don’t know what thought process led you to expect anything but scorn. It’s like going to a sporting event and sitting with the fans of one team while wearing the other team’s colors.

    Btw, I don’t disagree with the title. Of the WYSIWYG markdown editors I’ve tried, Obsidian easily has the best UX with the single-pane preview and inline editing. That being said, Obsidian is trying to be more than a note-taking app. The wobbly graph, canvases, the nonstandard markdown elements might turn people off. The average *nix-user will also likely prefer a community-driven application instead of closed-source, corporate software, gratis or paid.

    The issue is that you made the post in bad faith, to evoke a negative reaction. Some will call it an attempt at trolling, but I think the most appropriate description is “being a dick.”






  • I said “apathy”, not “negative”. The people who dislike snap have likely moved to other distributions, and I don’t see any widespread praise considering Ubuntu’s market share within the Linux ecosystem, so the most likely answer is that people either don’t know or don’t care about snap.

    Whether or not an application is packaged as a snap is also a poor indication. Most of the software used in Ubuntu still comes from an APT repo, mostly official or sometimes a PPA. Many developers distribute their software exclusively as flatpaks, appimages, or binaries. Shit, Valve even recommends against using the snap version of Steam. By using your standard, snap would be considered an abject failure.
