Updating only a group, all groups from a server or a whole bundle of
nested items (e.g. [nntp] only) seems easier in this view. At least
I've not stumbled over it being mentioned for the default view while
searching other stuff in the 400++ pages manual.

... and someday I'll get used to not use [TAB]!

There seems to be a correlation between hitting [TAB] and the level of
caffeine in my body. o;-)

Somewhere else here already is mentioned how to change the binding in
this context to use an other key, but I think diverging a lot from the
defaults may make life harder when talking with others about GNUS,
because I'd always need to remember which keys and other modifications
are my local ones and what to tell others to press or use instead in the
same situation. That doesn't smell like a good alternative for me.

Of course---the more stressed you are, the more likely you're of
repetitive rituals. (At least that's what happens to mice in
laboratory. Stressed mice are more prone to repetitive behavior and
less creativity.) What coffee does is primarily stress your system---it
hits your adrenal system hard.

Somewhere else here already is mentioned how to change the binding in
this context to use an other key, but I think diverging a lot from the defaults may make life harder when talking with others about GNUS,

It was probably me. But I agree with you---you should just keep from
pressing TAB. A little thinking before pressing commands is kinda of
out of fashion these days, given all the interactive nature of the computer---it tells ``wrong'' and you try again. But that stresses you
much more too; it gets you tired from doing the same thing over and
over. Typing slowly seems more energy efficient, for example. But, of
course, if you're full of coffee, thinking before hitting the keyboard
and working more slowly is not going to be pleasant at all. So what you
need to do is find out what your life is like without coffee. If you
feel is your life is not even worth living, then you can conclude easily
that you're addicted and that you're wrong. The way out is definitely
painful, but it's worth it.

It doesn't.

GNUS is like a mine field disguised as keyboard. Hit something wrong
and massive adrenaline shower may immediately hit you. Luckily UNDO can surprisingly often do what it was invented for. \o/

I'm more focused with caffeine, but I don't even use it daily any more.
That was different 3-2 decades ago, when my daily consume only could be
counted in litres. My stomach forced me to get a break from coffee.
Later in that coffee break time I noticed that caffeine pills help
against my migraine, which was either not obvious or even absent as
positive effect while drinking too much coffee. So I decided to use it
mainly against migraine now, when the bio-weather smells like a grumpy
migraine fairy could knock on my door soon.

Fairies are the mood carrying virtual particles.

If you feel is your life is not even worth living, then you can
conclude easily that you're addicted and that you're wrong. The way
out is definitely painful, but it's worth it.

When switching form litres of coffee to zero from one day to the other,
I got a massive migraine. That made me think that there may be a
connection like already mentioned above.

I gave up smoking only a few days after coffee. Additionally that all
was within my 2nd burnout. It felt like the right time to do some
things differently.

Luckily I had absolutely no nicotine retraction problems, and apart from
a 2 day migraine no longer ones from caffeine.

After some more TAB in topic-mode incidents which were coming in
clusters today I'm nearer to redefining the related keys than dead
Zuckerberg's rat penis transplant[T] is long!

After playing some minutes with ...

$ (define-key gnus-topic-mode-map (kbd "<tab>") 'gnus-topic-select-group)
$ (define-key gnus-summary-mode-map (kbd "<backtab>") 'gnus-summary-exit)

... entered via eshell, I feel well prepared for it, but have not wired
that into my dotfiles yet. Maybe I get better ideas for other keys or
actions later. For now I just restarted GNUS and am cooling down.

Hi yeti!

Regarding GNU Emacs keybindings redefinitions, I find these makes my GNU
Emacs usage easier:

(keymap-global-set "C-f" `forward-word)
(keymap-global-set "C-b" `backward-word)
(keymap-global-set "M-f" `forward-char)
(keymap-global-set "M-b" `backward-char)

(keymap-global-set "C-c e" `end-of-buffer)
(keymap-global-set "C-c b" `beginning-of-buffer)
(keymap-global-set "C-w" `backward-kill-word)
(keymap-global-set "M-DEL" `kill-region)

(keymap-global-set "C-_" `undo-only)
(keymap-global-set "C-c ;" `comment-region)
(keymap-global-set "M-%" `query-replace-regexp)


Hope this helps somezero (someone),

I was more upset about harmful commands that already multiple times
screwed up my subscribed groups list so much that I had to restore it
from backups.

The main culprit seems C-w which may kill lots of lines in you groups or
topic view. Elsewhere this would close windows and when not 100% awake
and thinking the neighbour window were in focus but Gnus has it, shit
happens.

IMO defining the structure of topics or manipulation the groups list
should be even different modes than using them. That would avoit a lot
of stress.

Each zero (one) has their own each way. GNU Emacs respects it, which
says a lot about GNU Emacs :-) .
