-## The actual email part
-
-Yesterday, I got an email from someone who discovered my website (my first one).
-
-At first glance, when I saw the notification, it felt really odd, I thought it was a spam. Because on our planet, you only get emails about your 2FA code, or that one game in your steam wishlist that gets a 87% discount every 3 weeks.
-
-But no, it wasn't a spam. Just a nice person who sent me a nice email.
-
-This email really made my day. Knowing that someone took the time to read the content of my website made the whole _**installing nginx to then spend few days [configuring hugo](https://github.com/aledenshi/hugo)**_ proccess worth it.
-
-_(thank you for your email)_
-
-## Blogs are cool
-
-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)
-
-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.
-
-## Back to emails
-
-### Don't let 'mailto:' links scare you
-
-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 ?
-
-You might see me in your inbox someday if I find your website.
-
-### XMPP
-
-I don't like emails because you can't really know if someone did receive your mail. I will try to setup an XMPP server. You can contact me there if you don't like emails too.

-title: "Trying out Helix"
-date: 2025-09-22T09:08:19+02:00
----
-
-## Intro
-
-So I recently learned about the [helix editor](https://helix-editor.com/). If you try to use it you will see that Helix is similar to Vim and has the same three main editing modes.
-
-On a ton of distros it's easy to install it, on Arch you can just go:
-
-```sh
-sudo pacman -S helix
-```
-
-Normally, you use the helix binary with the `hx` command. But on Arch, you have to spell the whole `helix` word out, so you should probably make an alias in your shell's config if it bothers you.
-
-```sh
-alias hx="helix"
-```
-
-## The actual Helix
-
-### Basic stuff
-
-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 are different [Neovim](https://neovim.io/) as helix works out of the box, you have nothing to configure. 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.
-
-### Conf
-
-Helix uses a `config.toml` file in your `~/.config/helix` folder, so since it's using the TOML format Helix configuration files are way more user-friendly than learning to use Neovim's init.lua
-
-### Usage
-
-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 will 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.
-
-## Conclusion
-
-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 :)

-
-## Intro
-
-As I am writing this it's only been a year since I learned about `GNU/Linux`. I didn't know anything about programming neither back then, but hey, here I am :)
-
-## Software I use(d)
-
-I remember reading those two pages from [Luke Smith](https://lukesmith.xyz/programs) and [zacoons](https://zacoons.com/stuff) this summer. I really liked them, so I am going to do the same (kind of the same).
-
-### Env
-
-When I first learned about Linux, everyone told me to install [Ubuntu](https://ubuntu.com), and so I did. I don't remember my experience using it (as I only used Ubuntu for like 3 days). But I remember staying late at night installing [Debian](https://www.debian.org) after learning that Ubuntu wasn't the **one and only Linux distro** existing.
-
-Learning about the others Desktop Environment was overwhelming as well, so I ran Debian headless (without a Desktop Environment) only to realize that a display server is vital if I want to make a normal use of my computer. So I installed and learned about Window Managers with i3.
-
-Debian was nice and made me happy (for a few months or so). But I quickly learned about rolling release distros and so I installed [Void Linux](https://voidlinux.org).
-
-_Void Linux_ is a really cool name. Void Linux **is** cool. `xbps` is cool. Everything about this distro **is cool**. [Wayland](https://wayland.freedesktop.org) **is** cool, [Sway](https://github.com/swaywm) sure was. And making symlinks between `/etc/sv` and `/var/services` to enable daemons was fire. I really loved using Void Linux, I used it with [GNOME](https://www.gnome.org) and [KDE](https://kde.org) plasma for months.
-
-Unfortunately, an app I wanted to use needed systemd as a dependency so I had to leave the runit init system. As I already used Debian I wanted to try another distro so I installed Arch.
-
-Arch is scary. I don't have much to say about it. I use it with [Hyprland](https://hypr.land).
-
-I wanted to try [suckless](https://suckless.org) software but meh, I don't want to leave Wayland and [dwl](https://codeberg.org/dwl/dwl) doesn't sound appealing to me.
-
-### Shell
-
-I used to only know good ol' [bash](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash).
-[fish](https://fishshell.com) was kind of a deal breaker compared to the bourne again shell, but recently I've switched to [zsh](https://www.zsh.org).
-
-### Editor
-
-I started off with VSCode, but I just knew that it wasn't the right one, I am now using [Neovim](https://neovim.io), I really like the project, but I don't feel like neovim is the right one neither. Maybe I will give [Helix](https://helix-editor.com) a shot.
-
-### Web browser
-
-I use Firefox, with [arkenfox](https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js).
-
-### Search Engine
-
-I used DuckDuckGo before and then ran SearXNG on my personal server. But now I just choose one [here](https://searx.space).
-
-## Software I don't want to use
-
-### Google
-
-I started ungoogle-ing things this summer. Using another email provider, another email client, etc isn't that bad. The most difficult part for me is by far android. I have a Xiaomi phone I bought years ago and I am running HyprOs 2.0 on it.
-
-It's currently impossible (or at least, very difficult) to unlock the bootloader of phones running this particuliar OS. So I am trapped, I can't install a custom android ROM such as [LineageOS](https://lineageos.org) or [GrapheneOS](https://grapheneos.org) because of the bootloader unlocking process.
-
-The only workaround I found is using [AUD](https://github.com/Universal-Debloater-Alliance/universal-android-debloater-next-generation) with [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org).

-## Software I use
-
-You will hear a lot of people on the internet (like me) express our opinion about subjects like VSCode, systemd, GitHub or whatever.
-
-Don't change the software you use only because other people are telling you that it shouldn't be used or to look more "cool".
-
-This page is only here to entertain you, not to make you feel ashamed.
-
-### OS
-
-I use [Artix Linux](https://artixlinux.org/) with runit.
-
-### Text editor
-
-Neovim, but ~VSCode~ VSCodium is really nice if you don't like TUI based text/code editor.
-
-Sometimes I really feel dumb not using VSCode, Neovim (and others text editors like helix) don't have features I need such as _Goto Definition_ for Java.
-
-### Web browser
-
-Firefox everywhere, with these add-ons :
-
-- [Ad-Blocker](https://ublockorigin.com/).
-- [Youtube-blocker](https://zacoons.com/pystol/).
-- [Cookies-blocker](https://github.com/OhMyGuus/I-Still-Dont-Care-About-Cookies/).
-
-### Search Engine
-
-[SearXNG](https://searx.space), DuckDuckGo if i'm too lazy.
-
-### Email client
-
-Thunderbird :)
-
-### File Manager
-
-I don't have one, I use the shell with `coreutils`. But let's be honest, the drag-and-drop feature on a file manager does feel very nice.
