I'm liking programming in #Nim as I am understanding and using it more. It's awesome!

If I were you, and were happy with zim/libreoffice, I wouldn't switch. There has to be a strong reason when you do any switch.
very relatable
@eladhen I don't use RTL languages. But the official Org mailing list is very active and provides great support. Try e-mailing about your issue, including how to reproduce it from "emacs -Q" at emacs-orgmode@gnu.org.
@chuck @gamehawk @brennen @craigmaloney I may be biased because I've done a number of technical reviews for NoStarch, but I really like them. Bill Pollock seems like a good leader, I like the quality of their books and their editorial process, and I think their prices are reasonable.
I also like that their books have character and art design instead of the bland homogeneity of O'Reilly, but this is more frivolous.
Packt Pub is more shovelware, toss everything at a wall and see what sticks.

@syndikalista
I agree. There's definitely some initial time investment needed if you want to switch to any new static site gen.
I can talk about #hugo though.. Once I was past that initial learning phase, I entered that "Go templating enlightened" state :P, where I can add any feature I like to my site, limited just by my lack of JavaScript knowledge. But Go templating + basic CSS allows me to do most of the things I want.
@syndikalista
I can talk about mine.. It started reviving in 2017 when I got introduced to #hugo.
In my latest for Opensource.com, I take a look at 5 #Emacs modes for writers https://opensource.com/article/18/5/emacs-modes-writers #writing #opensource #plaintext
@maiki Just tried disabled scripts on my site.. works well except that the fontawesome icons don't load as I use SVG+JS method for loading them, and the dynamic TOC of course requires JS.
Makes me think if I should get rid of FA altogether, hmm..
The release with the black theme and the compact mode has been published.

You might find some bugs or have some suggestions. I opened a thread on github. Do not hesitate to post here. Thanks.
And then switched from list of tags/categories to a series of buttons with their sizes proportional to the number of posts: https://scripter.co/categories/.
#Hugo templating is awesome!

Pretty happy with an overhaul of "taxo buttons" on my site https://scripter.co/.
The new buttons for tags and categories blend better into the site.
- Hovering over those shows the number of posts with the same tags/categories
- Clicking on a button will show posts only with that taxo. But on that page, that particular taxo button is colored in my site's theme color (maroon/reddish).

New post: https://scripter.co/accessing-devdocs-from-emacs/ …. It's about accessing #DevDocs from #Emacs for #Nim lang docs. Thanks to Christopher Wellons for his devdocs-lookup package!
Simply put, #hackernews deals with this very well.. it doesn't support full Markdown, but supports indented code blocks, bolds and italics, that's it.
I certainly prefer the triple back-quote syntax. But if even those backticks are intrusive, making this work would be awesome:
