#liveshare — Public Fediverse posts

#ZedEditor can drag #VSCode #LiveShare through the mud, if everything is #CRDT-first and it really works fast. (Had terrible desynchronization on VSC part.) To seriously consider it in enterprise, though, first major release needs to happen with collab tools already available as a #SelfHosted solution (not just their cloud that you can't be sure to be 100% secure and available 24/7). You can set custom `server_url` in settings (as user) and deploy `collab` crate (as devops), but authentication is another step that you have to band-aid, at the moment.

Overall, I don't expect much besides advertised features during the beta, which include fast autocompletion and language-agnostic tree, so it's a winner.

@dch #GNUScreen was the closest. In #tmux you couldn't drive separate panes / windows, whereas in #Screen there are `:acladd $USERNAME` to share a socket with another user and the default behaviour is that an active window is personal per user connected.

I used to use GNU Screen for pair programming, but #LiveShare is truly revolutionary. I think that it's less of a hardware proceedings and more so proceedings in practical implementations of conflict-free data structures.
