I used to think GitHub Codespaces would help popularise Gitpod but now realize it is the other way around. Gitpod is currently permitted to exist in the Visual Studio Code ecosystem to popularise GitHub Codespaces, and Microsoft can step in at any moment to create legal crises that strategically divide the market from a business perspective because, like Apple and their AppStore: it is their ecosystem that they control and they are in absolute control.

    I keep trying-and failing-to use Emacs.

    I can so relate to that. I’ve been trying to switch to and start using Emacs for so long, and I never could fully switch to it. I mean, it could replace my IDE, my text editor, give me a great way of taking notes (org-mode), it has a built-in terminal, music player and more! It really is incredible but I could never really get used to it.
