@fiore i kinda like it if im honest, like purely visually it sucks for functionality
like the braces line up with eachother and nothing else so you can at a glance see where the block starts and ends without getting distracted by further indentation

@fiore yea but nesting can make indentation levels difficult to follow
also im just a sucker for weird indentation i also get a kick out of leaving the closing brace indented

@SuperDicq @phnt @reia its bad because half tabs are not a thing so if u do gnu style u have to use spaces .

@SuperDicq @phnt @fiore @reia it is bad, but to me is subjectively.
Everything that doesn't put spaces in parentheses is less than readable.

@SuperDicq @fiore @reia It is ugly and inconsistent which leads to more brain processing needed to parse something as simple as indentation. The half-indentation also fucks with my brain way too much since I like 1 tab/8 spaces for indentation.
Like look at this monstrosity

if (i == 1)

printf ("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
else if (i != 1)

printf ("unreachable\n");
return 1;

@fiore @phnt @reia @SuperDicq GNU style is readability equivalent of putting more than one space between words, punctuation, etc.

@newt @fiore @reia @SuperDicq Imagine needing to emulate another editor to perfect your own editor. The state of emacs.

EdBoatConnoisseur@poa.stemacs has no text editor, tho with enough lisping some emac users have managed to cobble vim emulation as a feature of the emacs operating system.

@phnt @fiore @reia @SuperDicq true. The default keys in Emacs were inspired by the Space Cadet and are unusable on modern keyboards.

@SuperDicq @fiore @reia tab = 8 spaces has been the standard after typewriters became obsolete and is standard in UNIX since BSD KNF which is documented K&R. GNU Emacs tab width default is also 8.

@nuukaset @fiore @phnt @reia @SuperDicq only if you want HARD ERRORS on success. Failure will give you a soft one.
