I really like to read blog posts from other people on the web. When you read about someone else's thoughts, you really listen to what **they** have to say, you can't really stop them to then start to talk about yourself like in a conversation. (+ blog is a great resource to learn things)
-When you read a blog, you are free to leave and return. You are not forced to hear about some stuff that you are not interested in. You are not stuck in a conversation that you don't like. **You** (lovely-little-thing browsing the web) make the call.

I really think that having a blog is cool, you should have one. I host mine all by myself but I'm sure that there is another solution if you can't do that.
I think that you already know this but : Don't write blogs about something that is illegal or to hurt someone else's feeling. Be kind to the people around, especially to people that you don't know.
-You can find a few links at the bottom of the [stuff](/stuff) page if you want to read other blog posts scattered all over the internet.

I never leave comments on youtube videos, I never send emails to people that write blogs neither. But this email changed my mind. Why not after all ?

Helix comes pre installed with LSP support, color schemes, a fuzzy finder similar to telescope, native syntax tree with tree sitter, auto closing characters such as brackets, parenthesis and quotes and more.
-Helix and [Neovim](https://neovim.io) feel different to me, because with Neovim, I spend more time making the **perfect** configuration instead of having work done. With Helix you have almost nothing to setup. Some people might say that compared to Neovim/Vim, Helix is bloated, but I really think that this 'bloat' feels awesome and will find it's own audience.

+Of course, using Helix feels weird if you are used to vim motions.
-It uses an _object-verb_ system : you first specify the object, then the action you want to perform on it (yank, delete, replace etc). So you might feel a bit confused with the keybinds because vim does the opposite (verb-object). You should really go checkout helix's website as it gives you everything you need to help you use their text editor. They even have a guide [for us](https://docs.helix-editor.com/from-vim.html) vim users.

-After using Helix for roughly 5 mins, I can say that I feel more comfortable **learning** Helix rather than Neovim. The Keybindings make more sense and are more intuitive.

You must have your own opinion on the subject, stop reading stupid blog posts about helix and just give it a shot :)
