I'm mainly a bit worried that his approach manages to incorporate only a fairly limited section of Hegel's actual commitments, but he's a really interesting guy regardless, love his lectures and the systematic nature of his thinking that he somehow manages to apply to analytic philosophy

Yeah, he most certainly has an idiosyncratic reading of not only Hegel, but most of the philosophers he interacts with. His particular philosophy of language is what I'm most interested in as I find it extremely interesting with its conception as a form of social practice. Trying to link it with +

Marxist's philosophy of language right now as a matter of fact - mostly Voloshinov, Bakhtin, Lecercle - to see if I can provide a generative synthesis between them for more practical than merely theoretical use. We'll see how it goes 🤷‍♂️

that's super cool! yeah as far as I understand it at least, inferentialism is an attractive view about language, and I was probably some sort of conceptual holist before I had the vocabulary to express that view lol
