I just ran my routine update script. For the fourth time today. And I’m hit with 2029 updated packages. Image is a screenshot of zypper displaying the updated packages. I had to zoom out very far. Who knew that having texlive installed would do something like this lol


I switched from LaTeX to Typst this year, and while I didn’t do it for this reason, it’s a nice side benefit
https://typst.app/
This plus compile time were my reasons for switching
I’ve tried several times but latex commands are so engrained in my fingers. One day. Maybe.
I love typst! I have also been using it for about a year now, though only for personal stuff, because the math and more advanced formatting is not quite on par with latex yet. But it’s getting close and it’s so much nicer to use!
