Text Editor #
These days, I’m generally running Claude Code paired with Claude’s Opus 5.5 model at work.
Beyond that, I’ll often pop open Neovim with a default Lunarvim configuration. I don’t know any shortcuts besides moving around, deleting/pasting lines and existing.
Sometimes I’ll reach for Sublime Text when it comes to large files or just wanting a scratchpad. I actually did buy a license many years back!
Terminal #
Currently, I use Ghostty with JetBrainsMono Nerd Font Mono 12pt and the Catppuccin Macchiato colour scheme.
Everything else is stock and unconfigured.
Computers #
- Macbook Air M1 as my personal laptop
- Macbook Pro M4 14-inch as my work laptop
- I was running a Framework with EndeavourOS but I got tired of fiddling with window managers that would crash
- I also missed iOS/macOS interop like copying on your phone and pasting on your laptop
- Custom built desktop running EndeavourOS
- I forget most of the specs but it has an RTX 3070 Ti and surely I’ll never be able to upgrade the GPU again this century at current prices…
- I play games with a mix of keyboard and mouse, as well as a standard green Xbox One controller.
- I have some Razer mouse I got a while back but I don’t use any of the features.
- For a window manager, it’s just running stock KDE which is nice and boring. I did experiment with QuickShell and all sorts of other shit but it kept breaking. I’m not built for ricing…
- I use a Dygma Defy with a Logitech MX Ergo S at work.
- Besides swapping delete and space, I only have minimal customisations and hardly use anything but the first layer
- For reading articles and ebooks, I use Readwise Reader on an Onyx Boox Go 71
- For reading manga, I use Aidoku on an iPad Mini pointed at Suwayomi Server
- For reading big PDFs, I use a Daylight Computer but I’m really bad at using it these days over just scrolling PDFs on desktop. It’s nice for vacations and manga anyway.
Applications #
