title: "Farewell, Atom."

Recently, back on June 8th of 2022, GitHub announced that it set an end-of-life of December 15th, 2022 for Atom. What was once a super popular text editor in the mid-2010s that has since fallen behind the times a bit,
|
||||
|
||||
### History
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Technological Advances
|
||||
|
||||
Atom brought along with it some pretty awesome technological advances, the primary one being Electron. Initially referred to as "Atom Shell", Electron quickly took off as a way to utilize the open source web browser Chromium as a base for desktop apps, and build on top of it using web technologies (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) and Node.js.
|
||||
|
||||
### Signing Off...

||||

||||
Overall, I'm going to miss Atom. Sure, Sublime Text was more performant and VS Code has a much larger community these days, but it still has a place in my heart since I used it for several years when I started getting more serious in my IT career and I thought it was kinda awesome how the community around Atom exploded so quickly. It seemed like Atom's community shot well past that of the other well-established text editors of the time, practically overnight. Plus I always thought the "a hackable text editor for the 21st century" was such a cool slogan. Suffice to say it has a special place in my heart, so I'll simply end this post with "Farewell, Atom."

title: "All Adventures Begin with Microsoft Edge"
|
||||
description: "This is part one of my Web Switching series, where I'm taking a look at other web browsers to see if I'm going to permanently switch from Mozilla Firefox."

I'm getting bored of Firefox. It works well and I love that it's open-source, but just being open-source isn't enough and I trust Mozilla about as much as I trust Google. Thus I'm ready for a change, and I'm going to start poking around some of the other major web browsers. Chrome/Chromium, Opera, Edge, Vivaldi, Brave, and possibly some others are my targets to try out. I'm going to give each browser about a 30 day trial run as my daily driver (note: I'll still be using other browsers for various things like maintaining multiple Google account sessions simultaneously), and the first one I'll be taking a look at is Microsoft Edge.
|
||||
|
||||
This post will be accompanied by a video shortly, this is just a sneak peak for that video with my thoughts on Edge so far. I'll link the video here when it's live.
|
||||
|
||||
### What is Edge?
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft's successor to Internet Explorer. Initially started out with their own rendering engine, but later based on Chromium and thus Google's Blink rendering engine. I've always liked Blink as it's super snappy.
|
||||
|
||||
### Things I like...
|
||||
|
||||
* Installing it was easy - Microsoft provide a Linux repo (nothing special)
|
||||
* Default theme (color themes) are beautiful - I'm partial to the Cool Blue one
|
||||
* Signing in to my Microsoft account was easy (nothing special)
|
||||
* I can use Chromecast from my browser (true for all Chromium browsers)
|
||||
|
||||
### Things I don't like...
|
||||
|
||||
* Starting Edge doesn't always restore my sessions, and when it does it doesn't always restore the tabs to their proper windows.
|
||||
* Can't find a way to change the search engine. I'm trying Bing out for now and it's doing fine for me (plus the Bing Rewards are nice!), but I'd like the option to change it.
|
||||
* Occasionally one window will pin itself to all of my workspaces and can't be unpinned without closing
|
||||
* Desktop notifications don't timeout
