    I have been using straight for a while now and I think it is great! The ability to lazy load everything by default does a lot to make Emacs snappier (or at the very least, faster t…

    Full page screenshots are actually supported by FF, Chrome and Safari (even on mobile). For some reason, the feature is always hidden in some absurd place https://www.idownloadblog…
