UK layout is the GOAT. It isn't that much different from US layout at first, but there are so many more special characters readily available. Particularly useful for multiple languages like Spanish, German, Swedish, etc.

Where is "nu" though?

Shouldn't UK or at least England be "arse" and not "ass"?

How to introduce religion to a new civilazation

Yeah, it really isn't for everyone. The advantagees it provides is mostly for developers and companies. If you're a company, managing a NixOS fork is useful, so all users of the system are on the same page always.

Otherwise the package manager itself can be used on its own. It's neat being able to use packages from basically any distro without even needing to use a VM.

Nix is daunting indeed, but cool for those who want such tooling

Got to see the northern lights together with my so!

Use templates like these https://github.com/qjcg/awesome-typst#cv with the official online application (https://typst.app). It's almost as easy to use as markdown, and almost as powerful as LaTeX (while bring a million times easier to customize).

I'd recommend https://typst.app/. Super easy to structure text like LaTeX and 100 times easier to use :)

Not entirely agreeing, but there are some things that are not quite there yet. For me it's mostly:

• Bibliography sorting
• Spellchecking
• Syntax highlighting for lesser known programming languages like GDScript

Otherwise I don't really have complaints. If anything LaTeX was the one thing setting me back (and don't even get me started on Word).

There are official ones and there's also https://github.com/qjcg/awesome-typst

I took one of those and easily adjusted it to my needs. It's so easy and intuitive! And fast!!!

Typst is awesome and sooo fast! I literally ported my thesis mid-way to it and haven't looked back since. Love it all the way.
