Yeah, I believe these were one the first retinas with 200+ ppi. Honestly, for a person who spends most of the time staring at a code or a text, hidpi is basically a necessity for me at this point. So the fact that slack or vscode had such a bad support for fractional scaling is a huge deal for me. (Wayland fixes this in some instances as I mentioned)
never tried Xaringan, but from the look of it it’s yet another markdown framework. which is splendid, but no UI is a huge dealbreaker for me. otherwise i’m happy to write my own parsing engine or just make presentations in pure html/css/js.
i used typst for papers. their “interpretation” of latex is pretty annoying. they basically tried to reinvent it, and it looks counter intuitive (maybe one could get used to it). otherwise, i don’t see how its different from a regular old beamer with no UI, poor support for videos etc.
unfortunately, it’s a product of imagination of an overpowered progenitor of our future overlords, otherwise known as GPT-4. and apparently, it still does not want to produce 16x10 images (that is, unless you give it a sacrifice in the form of monthly subscriptions). but feel free to use the image for whatever purposes )
like i mentioned above in the comment, i really meant to say OnlyOffice (but i also tried Libre, and a bunch of others)
I used WPS, it was worse than Libre from the usability, plus quite bloated with all sorts of stuff (luckily, I don’t have to pay for the Office, and will never actually do that willingly). Haven’t used the other two, however, will have a look, thanks!
Both GIMP and Krita are very nice and decent, just not powerful enough for many things I need photoshop for. Inkscape is actually much closer to Illustrator (not as powerful, but still), so that might be the only one with the “getting used to it” issue.
Actually, one other thing I should have mentioned, is that I also transited from using Premiere Pro to Kdenlive (and sometimes even Blender for very light video editing). Kdenlive is an amazing success story for KDE, hope that happens to Krita as well.
PS. The name GIMP sounds amazing! Love it, they should never change it )
