Time for YAP (yet another poll ;-))
For those people who are using a Linux Distro and are NOT running #systemd
Which init do you use?
If other: please comment.
If you are using another Unix system with an unusal init, comments are also welcome.
And: if you are using systemd in an extraordinary way (e.g. combined with s6), this would also be interesting.
It seems that #Manjaro Architect is gone for good?
If so, then the "minimal installation" instructions for Manjaro on simpletools.info can be removed, I think.
SimpleTools is now available at #gemini

This isn't perfect yet. Conversion from Dokuwiki was done with dw2markdown | md2gemini, plus a lot of sed voodoo and hand editing. So, there is no complete automated conversion process yet.
Sorry for the delay, but here we are. Eleven text editors are now listed at the wiki, including screenshots:

There are some gaps to fill in the articles, especially the feature check matrix. Help is welcome.
Thanks for your anwers regarding fonts in your X terminal emulator.
Bitmap fonts are simpler and do consume lesser memory than TTF fonts. Downside is, they are not scalable and do only look good at certain sizes.
Two of of the most popular bitmap fonts for the terminal are the default "fixed" and "Terminus"
But there are more, here is a site with an overview available monospace bitmap fonts: https://github.com/Tecate/bitmap-fonts
We added another installation walkthrough in our "minimal installation" section.
This time for #Manjaro
Finally we have finished testing #stacking window mangers
Have a look at our comparison and recommendations:
We added a section for instructions on how to do a minimal installation of operating systems - and we started with #Fedora
Memory measurement of #stacking window managers. Some of the results are surprising.
The #stacking window manager poll is finished.
