Damn thanks for showing org-transclusion. That's an amazing package!

[@DooMWhite]

It's insane how cool those features are, Emacs is amazing.

[@rynn_3988]

Recently started using Doom Emacs and your video is very helpful for newbies like us. Thanks..

[@itstoxicqt]

Emacs is life

[@nickanderson0042]

org-rich-yank is another little known, but great package. Sort of like org-download but for text. Past the text inside a babel block with a link back to the source.

[@librephoenix]

Sounds really cool! I'll have to check it it more later!

[@JPEaglesandKatz]

I'm kinda lost in how to actually get emacs to look like yours or have similar functionality..... An emacs guide would be awesome...

[@FreeRussia90]

Hi, how did you get rid of the emacs mac app icon on the top left and the background transparent?

[@just_niv]

i use calfw as an alternative to org-timeblock, its an amazing package

[@librephoenix]

I used calfw for a while and it's great! I have a lot of org-agenda files since I source my agenda from my org-roam files, and cafw took a really long time to load when I loaded it with my todo-items. It's still very nice tho!

[@aimpizza6823]

Do you still use doom emacs on nix? Does it work well?

[@nad6234]

super interesting & +1 sub ✅

[@rdrachmanto]

Is there any way to line the headings with the normal text? level 2 headings having more indentation than the normal text under first level heading is just weird for me. Before I was only using org-bullets, and it was fine.

[@shivamsinghdangi751]

i tried many times to switch to emacs but the friction is too big . Nobody makes a simple enough video to cover the basics of emacs.

[@JeersNX]

IKKK

[@KT-dj4iy]

Switch to emacs from...what?

[@JstJaybeingJay]

Distro Tube has really good tutorials. And actually I'm thinking to make tutorial myself. But if you are truly impatient then check out the tutorial present in the emacs.

[@obsolete9734]

same

[@IvanferreroIt]

Me too! Switching from file managers and note taking apps such as Obsidian and DevonThink

[@john-sr3fi]

nice

[@truth_4lif399]

Good videos, I love your set up, can you do a video installing nixos setting up hyperland and emacs? Thank you!

[@AlmondFlourr]

honestly this

[@librephoenix]

Thanks! I definitely will at some point soon! I got a home-manager video hopefully coming out this weekend or next week, but after that, I'll probably do a quick tour of my hyprland + emacs + nixos modular setup! My dots are here if anyone is curious: gitlab.com/librephoenix/nixos-config or github.com/librephoenix/nixos-config

[@truth_4lif399]

@librephoenix thank you so much! I try your dot file for some reason I can not get it to work, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm installing it on bare metal and Nixos refused to work for me. I'm hoping your next video helps. Thank you I appreciated all your video's . Keep up the great work 👍🏾 👏 🔥 🔥

[@librephoenix]

@@truth_4lif399 Thanks! If you're trying my dotfiles, there's two quick things I know for a fact will break if not done: 1) hardware-configuration.nix was not regenerated or 2) the username variable inside the flake is not set to the name of your user. I have these (and other things) documented in my install notes: gitlab.com/librephoenix/nixos-config/-/blob/main/install.org?ref_type=heads or github.com/librephoenix/nixos-config/blob/main/install.org Hope this helps!

Watched because of Emma the emacs pony in the thumbnail

[@trucywrightforpresident]

the org roam ui package looks incredible. reminds me of obsidian a bit :3 i’ve seen emacs compared to obsidian several times, and seeing how much emacs can match & transform is amazing
