A Reddit post about the frustration of a developer who contributed #emacsclient support to #Gemini CLI, only for #Google to transition the tool to an enterprise-only, closed-source model shortly after.

[…] My takeaway is that in the future I will think very carefully before contributing again to non-FOSS projects.

Yes. Also, the small problem of Google and AI use in genocide and war crimes, but not a priority I guess.

People who use GNU Emacs to work on Python things, I'm curious what Python LSP server you use (and optionally why, and optionally whether you use Eglot or lsp-mode).

#emacs

(Boosts welcome and I know there are probably more options, I only get four options in my polls. Feel free to add more in replies.)

The #Memacs framework just learned how to get your #PodcastAddict #podcast episodes into your #Emacs #Orgmode with a new module:
https://github.com/novoid/Memacs

It's using the app's backup files which I have synchronized to my desktop anyhow:

uv --project path/to/memacs run memacs_podcastaddict --backup-dir /path/to/backup/PodcastAddict/ -o ~/org/memacs/podcasts.org_archive

My personal setup now has 2819 finished episodes on my agenda. 😲 👍

Elfeed 4.0 is going to be a big release.

Journelly and OSM for Emacs are good together: https://taonaw.com/2026/05/25/journelly-and-osm-for-emacs.html

Fixed OSM in my Emacs after I tracked down the issue to be with visual-line-mode conflict. Been wanting to fix this for a while. While at it, wrote a quick function to pull LATITUDE/LONGITUDE from Journelly’s property drawers and feed them to osm-goto. Good stuff.

An ELPA traffic cadet is once again trying to make up rules which the ELPA maintainers have to follow, while not having contributed anything significant to Emacs or ELPA himself:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2026-05/msg00564.html

Emacs and ELPA are under continuous pressure by some people with a political agenda. This makes it difficult to contribute there since the rules may change from one day to another.

I plan to release a new version of Elfeed soon. Version 4.0.0 will include many fixes, functional improvements and new features. Please let us know if you have found issues that should be fixed.

My first commit to Elfeed happened on April 30, so about a month ago. Clearly the current burst of activity is coming to an end. It is time for Elfeed 4.0 soon.

Graph with the number of recent Elfeed commits

A discovery that is absolutely trivial yet genuinely pleasing to me is that I can navigate #Emacs local projects and run `compile` commands almost transparently through TRAMP by simply shadowing the `default-directory`. Neat for #Flatpak Emacs (which deserves more love!) and immutable distros, where dev tooling generally lives in Toolboxes.

Despite being same location, /toolbox[...]:/Project and /Project are still seen as different by project.el. At least no more typing TRAMP prefixes by hand.

i use eww to display text from an elfeed, rss feed but it lumps code blocks from the blogs together.

M-indent-region doesn't un-lump the code. Is there any other display modes for elfeed ?

🌗 我的 i3-emacs 整合實作
➤ 透過核心級修改突破視窗管理器與文字編輯器的整合瓶頸
✤ https://khz.ac/software/i3-integration.html
本文探討作者如何解決 Emacs 與 i3 視窗管理器之間的快捷鍵衝突與整合問題。作者曾嘗試使用 `xdotool` 等工具將按鍵轉發給 Emacs，但發現延遲過高且效能不佳。最終，作者選擇直接修改 i3 的原始程式碼，加入一種機制：若當前聚焦的視窗為 Emacs，則將按鍵事件直接轉發給該應用程式，繞過 i3 原本的綁定邏輯。此舉成功提升了操作的流暢度與整合體驗。
+ 這解決了多年來困擾我的快捷鍵延遲問題，直接 Patch i3 雖然激進，但在無法透過軟體層解決時確實是最優解。
+ 很有趣的實作！雖然作者提到還沒完全解決視窗失去焦點的問題，但這種對原始碼的深入剖析非常值得參考。

🤡 Oh, the classic tale of "let's integrate two complex things because why not?" 🙄 Here we have someone heroically wrestling with window managers and #editors, only to discover that not all programs play nice with their grand vision—especially those rowdy apps like #Steam. But hey, at least #Emacs can switch themes, right? 🎨✨

@paniash Recently our own @oantolin's example inspired me to move to this completely declarative model in which all my own code goes into local "packages" in the user-lisp directory.

But years ago now our own @sacha's example inspired me to move to a literate config, which finally extinguished the endless cycle of confusion and bankruptcy.

Having an Org outline provides conceptual modularity, but having discrete declarations provides computational modularity.

Match Emacs and GNOME light/dark theme

#blog #emacs #gnome

The entirety of ELPA + MELPA as mirror is only around 3.7G (2.2G gzipped). I had expected that a full Emacs installation would be larger. #emacs #elpa

Mmh... so I compiled the latest #emacs master branch and somehow eglot was not rendering via eldoc anymore with a cryptic "Error running timer: (invalid-function #'gfm-extract)". I found a good hack to fix it: if you have treesitter and the markdown and markdown-inline grammars, eglot will use these for rendering instead of gfm-mode. Still don't understand exactly what was the origin of the error though.

Look, I found this to be really good, very interesting! https://kumakichi.github.io/org-github-pages.html #emacs #orgmode

My #Emacs config file now contains only use-package declarations. Took some doing, but now startup is significantly faster, and managing the thing is significantly easier.
