smartphone app
It’s a PWA, just install the site on your phone as a native app. I’ve been using it for about a year.
- Comment on Organic Maps migrates to Forgejo due to GitHub account blocked by Microsoft. 4 weeks ago:
Looks like a contributor was in a sanctioned region?
Not according to that thread - it looks like they don’t yet know what caused it:
mastodon.social/@organicmaps/114178916120483761
No any details from GitHub yet. One contributor mentioned a temporary visit to disputed areas a long time ago — GitHub probably just flagged the account, and their bots messed up after that.

Come on. Any “buy it for life” product will fall in that category. Safety razor for example.
- Comment on sharevb/it-tools: Collection of handy online tools for developers, with great UX. 5 weeks ago:
It’s the kind of thing I host so that no matter what device I’m sitting in front of, I can easily pull it up. Hence a server is needed.
I find it so useful I pull it up almost every workday.

Move your stuff from Gandi to Netim.com
Gandi got acquired and has done some very weird shit with pricing.

To answer your other question, actively using and maintaining my PIM since 2009.

I like Silverbullet, but I could never get the file tree to work well. Any tips? Or is that not a feature you use?
- Comment on US could cut Ukraine's access to Starlink internet services over minerals, say sources. 2 months ago:
I moved all my cloud computing from DO and Vultr to European owned options. It’s a small thing, but it’s about the only thing that I had been purchasing from the USA.

Sounds like someone who is sensibly voting with their dollar. I’m not from USA or Canada, and I am doing the same.

It’s pretty identical there champ.

One of the benefits of Obsidian is that it stores its data in a format where you CAN use cli tools and python etc. That’s one of the reasons I’m using it myself.
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 months ago:
It’s a different thing. What Obsidian and Logseq offer is plain-text markdown files in folders on your disk. Upnote and most of the other alternatives mentioned in this post store their data in a database.
Different thing altogether.

You only have to consider the plugin developers. Most of them would have the technical ability to do what you mention, but they prefer to use Obsidian instead. Clearly there’s a reason for that.

I assume this means free for local use? Not any kind of backups?
Why would they donate server space to you on top of giving you free (beer) software?
That’s literally what you said… ??

There are many apps that are great editors for this structure on every platform
And Obsidian is one of those apps 🤦 It’s has equal amount of “point” to all the other editors you think are somehow more valid - it’s just another editor.

Markdown has many more elements than bullet points
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 months ago:
Thank you, that’s what I had suspected, so I’m glad I wasn’t doing anything wrong.
The way I like to think is through long form writing and personal documentation, so I guess it’s not a good match for me.
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 months ago:
I think for some brains it just doesn’t click. How do you write a long form document? How would you write documentation? How would you write a blog post?
I tried for a while but I just couldn’t understand the concept of “Everything as an outline.”
- Comment on Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian 2 months ago:
It’s a very, very different approach having everything as a bullet point though.

You can’t say “Exactly” when you tl;dr’d and removed one of the most important parts of the article.
Your human summary was literally worse than AI 🤦
- Comment on In psychotherapists vs. ChatGPT showdown, the latter wins, new study finds 2 months ago:
A bit disingenuous not to mention the following paragraph:
Further, participants in most cases preferred ChatGPT’s take on the matter at hand. That was based on five factors: whether the response understood the speaker, showed empathy, was appropriate for the therapy setting, was relevant for various cultural backgrounds, and was something a good therapist would say.

Originally they listed Yandex along with naming other major search engines, then later changed the language to say simply “major search engines”.
What’s the issue if API calls are anonymous?

Home automation. Great for making QR codes with a low density (since the link is short).

Kutt is extremely easy to selfhost and fast as hell (and not written in PHP).

I was annoyed that I read the blog post and installed the extension, only to find that caveat right on the blog post footer. Feels like it should have been bolded right at the top.

The browser extensions which implement the protocol are open source. Not sure how much you can verify from that as I’m not skilled enough.

You can use Immich Public Proxy to share the albums without having to expose your Immich instance. You can use all the normal Immich options - password protected albums, and links that expire, etc
