They could possibly mean neovim. They appear to have spelled it wrong, though.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 9 months ago

vim was a mistake. Go back to vi.
...but modernizing it is still a good idea, so I present to you: neovi

(No, I'm not serious)

[-] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

nvi is a thing

does not fit though

luckily we vim fanatics do not have to worry, through the power of wordle solver, we can use exits instead lol

I think there's a mistake, I can't fit "neovim" into 8 across.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

And "nothing" does not fit, either.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 9 months ago

You need a spell checker friend.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 9 months ago

Pretty confident in my solve. The only ones I didn't get myself were 20-down, 29-down (obvious in retrospect), and 21-across (inferred the word, but didn't know the tool).

You can imagine my face reading the response of 15 lol I thought it was going to be a specific program hahaha I had a lot of fun with it and there were just a few I missed so I would love to see more like these in the future :)

[-] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

I don't think your spoiler tag worked.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 9 months ago

Voyager Displays it correctly.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

Rendered for me fine on Jerboa

Boost For Lemmy is not rendering spoiler tag

[-] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Are you using Sync? It never got the memo that Lemmy spoiler tags don't work the same way as Reddit ones and famously displays them improperly

[-] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I am using Sync. Any suggestions on a better alternative?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

The official app (maintained by the Lemmy developers) is Jerboa, which is what I've been using. It works well enough, although it always pays to shop around, install a bunch of different clients and see which you like best. Sync, to my knowledge, is the only client, for mobile or web, that renders spoilers in that broken way.

Today I learned that gnome has a crossword maker. Now I need to play with it too!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 9 months ago

I wonder if anyone ever made a crossword that also works as a QR code

[-] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

So... Anybody smarter than me know that 24 across is. I thought something like showering/bathing because supposedly people don't like to shower/cleanup as cons but neither seem to fit. Then I thought friends but that doesn't make sense either. So I got nothing.

Edit: Remove the ING from showering and it fits. Gotta check the connected ones to see if it works, though, assuming I get those right.

Edit Edit: I absolutely hate the "Best WM (Wayland) one because that is too subjective to be able to be answered correctly, if you ask me.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

Best WM (Wayland) shoud be Hyprland, it's exact length and fits with 18 and 32.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I get G _ N _ _ R there.

I'm not 100% confident about the G but the other two I'm positive of. It's not SHOWER but I have no idea what it is

19 down - WinNT

Proof

LOL

[-] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago

why are there so many List Files... ? Also 31 doesn't fit.

All those Distro Questions (29, 18, 27) are missing 2 spaces (OS is part of their name)

[-] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Neither Vanilla OS nor Silverblue fit

I have no idea what 9 and 24 are, and at this point i don't know if i care anymore

[-] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I don't know 24, but 9 is:

solution to 9 downscripting

[-] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Someone else said it. I never would've gotten this myself but now that I see it it makes sense.

24 across isGENDER

Nice. I solved 22 (with 2 of them being unsure), there's 12 I don't know. I can only assume the multiple listings of 'List files in current directory' is a deliberate joke because you use it so much, but somehow it doesn't feel right.

You should find a website to share it where people can play it interactively! I'm sure such websites are out there, it's too obvious.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I got all of them but three.

I had to google to figure out

nuclei and eagle mode existed

I still cannot figure out 24 across.
