Neo-tree v3.0 released (open-source.social)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by cseickel@open-source.social to c/neovim@open-source.social
 

PSA - Neo-tree has just moved on to version 3.0!

In this project, a major version change is not about features, it's just about making breaking changes in a way that lets users opt into them when they have time.

v2.x will no longer be updated unless we find some kind of massive bug, such as if your computer catches fire when opening neo-tree. If you use a release branch (which you should) and you want to keep getting updates, you'll need to switch your branch from v2.x to v3.x.

Checkout the release on github for a list of changes in this release.

 

Hi all, I just wanted to issue a warning to anyone using the main branch that we are working on v3.0 right now so that we can push a few breaking changes that have been on hold for a while. If you want to avoid those breaking changes, you should switch over to the v2.x branch or use a release tag.

You can see what breaking changes are going into this release by looking at the milestone.

The biggest changes are a switch to the newer v3 Nerd Font symbols and dropping the old NeoTree* commands.

 

I don't really have a good way to keep up with new features in neovim, especially new APIs that really only matter to plugin developers.

Has there been any new functionality that I have missed out on in 0.8+?

Is there a good way to find this out on my own? There 's a lot of activity on the repo so watching PRs doesn't really work for me.

 

This is for all of the other confused people out there. Threads are articles. I am assuming threads are what we are really looking for when we want to have a conversation.

This is taken from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/KbinMigration/comments/145bwof/the_redditors_guide_to_how_kbin_works_your/

NOTE: When you are in a magazine and looking to create a thread, if you click at "+" in the top right corner to create a thread, you will only see these options; "Add new link, article, photo, post or video". As mentioned in the above table, remember that post is for microblogging hence if you are looking to create a thread on a magazine, that is not the right option, instead it would actually be "article". While naming it "thread" would have been much less confusing (and we expect this to change in the future), for now it is called "Add new article" instead of "Add new thread".

 

Thanks for setting this up @lukas and @groctel! Reddit has left a bad taste in my mouth but it's such a familiar platform and I haven't found anything else I'd like to use in its place yet. Hopefully this is the one.
