Why is /mnt a "temporary" mounting point? I alwags put my permanent ones there. I'd say /media is temporary...

Sadly I don't remember. Sometimes it comes preinstalled, sometimes not, depending on OS or something. (Maybe Manjaro gnome). I could copy and paste inside of vim, but not to/from outside vim.

So I need to dive into the manual to do something as basic and universal as "copy and paste"? Why not make it Ctrl+shift+c or have it shown in the info text when pressing this almost universally accepted keypairs? Or at least make it somewhat similar to this. I find it bonkers why some programs decide to just have radically different shortcuts or defaults, the complete opposite of what feels intuitive. Same with the design of some doors that need actual SIGNS on them to tell you which direction they open. Just bad design choice.

Edit: just remembered. Same story with tmux. Want to copy something? Surprise, it's not anything you expect it to be. Some ctrl+b + [ or some shit

Wouldn't it then still be weird, so "the lawsuit benefits from piracy"?

For vim I had to config or install something just to be able to COPY something to use outside vim, how backwards is that? Isn't this the most standard feature one can expect to work as default?

Calling communities subs is fine. It need not necessarily refer to reddit. Sub means under/secondary/part of.

No unfortunately not... Would've been a real pain.

Hey that works too! Same effect as my previous workaround, that I just posted yesterday.

I do have to repeat this command everytime, so I had to put it into ~/.zshrc so it's executed beforehand in every new terminal.

It still does feel lile a workaround since it 'resets' itself (as I said) with every new terminal.
