I’m not sure how closely it hews to your definition, but I really love vim.

Not neovim. vim.

And get those plugins out of my face. I just want a TUI text editor that works the same everywhere.

It supports Rosetta2, so yes.

Reminded me of Boxee: https://hometheaterreview.com/boxee-tv-streaming-media-player/

16TB btrfs (+ECC RAM) on Debian 12.

I think they’re using this style: https://knowyourmeme.com/editorials/guides/what-does-eat-hot-chip-and-lie-mean-the-viral-copypasta-and-meme-explained

I don’t think I have any great answers for you, but I have two thoughts:

1. In my grub screen, I have 6.8.9, 6.8.10, and 6.8.11 available as choices. Does this also not work on 6.8.11 or do you only have Fedora configured to keep one old kernel version some how?
2. If your system boots into 6.8.9 just fine, can you disable the swap volume and try 6.8.10 again? If it works, you at least know what’s wrong…

That reads like it’s hanging trying mount a swap volume. Did any hardware change recently? Particularly like hard drive layout or something?
