57·4 days agoI was previously using Obsidian, which is great! but didn’t like that it was closed source. I then went on to try various options [0] but none of them felt “right”. I eventually found notesnook and it hit everything I was looking for [1]. It’s only gotten better in the last year I started using it and just recently they introduced the ability to host your own sync server, which is one of the requirements it didn’t initially make, but was on their roadmap.
[0] Obsidian, Standard Notes, OneDrive, VSCode with addons, Joplin, Google Keep, Simple Notes, Crypt.ee, CryptPad (more of a collabroation suite, which I actually really like, but it did not fit the bill of a notes app), vim with addons, Logseq, Zettlr, etc.
[1] Requirements in no particular order:
- Open source client and server.
- Cross-platform availability as I use Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android.
- Cross-platform feature parity.
- Doesn’t fight me over how notes should be taken - looking at Logseq’s lack of organization.
- Easy notes syncing.
- End-to-end encryption (E2EE). It’s about to be 2025, if the tools you’re picking up aren’t E2EE, you’re letting unknown strangers access your data and resell it. It doesn’t matter what their privacy policy says as that can always change and/or they can get compromised/compelled to expose your data.
- Ability to publish notes.
- Decent UX.
I had zero hardware issues with the Pixel 8 before.
it was either a hair or dust, its not cracked/there anymore

lets not forget AI was trained on human data. some people will “sound like AI” because they likely make up a big portion of its demographic training data.
Ah, you’re just trolling. Got it.
Look another American obsessed with Russia!
A single comment on Russia’s bullshit spyware tactics does not equate with obsession. Are you going to refute the facts or continue to troll?
A billion people tricked into using malware is still a billion people using malware. Telegram is a Russian spyware and misinformation machine. https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/columns/2024/08/27/7472194/
Putin’s Mouthpiece Demands Release of Durov (a likely fsb agent himself)
Pavel Durov has secretly traveled to Russia more than 60 times between 2014 to 2022
Durov concealed that he crossed the border more than 50 times from 2015 to 2022
• Despite the story that “the FSB took Vkontakte away from Pavel in 2014”, his relationship with the Russian authorities 2015-present was good enough > that he was not afraid of being detained while entering, reentry& long stays & operations in Russia.
• In response to the publication about his possible ties to Russia, Durov deliberately deceived Ukrainians and the general public, claiming that he > was an exile in Russia and that Telegram had “no ties” to Russia.
• As proof of his lack of ties to Russia, Pavel claimed that he was no longer a Russian entrepreneur, had dual citizenship in France & the UAE.
• After his arrest in France and the statements of the Russian authorities, we know that he has a valid Russian passport.
• Russian authorities are demanding his release.
Pavel Durov, telegrams owner, repeatedly crossed the border and concealed these 60+ trips into mother russia. For those familiar with Durov’s official position that he has become an exile and cannot return to his country, this fact alone should be interesting, as it probably means that Durov was not telling the truth about his conflict with the Russian authorities.
But go ahead, keep using Telegram, товарищ.
It’s okay to not tolerate hatred, fascists and misinformation.
The paradox of tolerance states that if a society’s practice of tolerance is inclusive of the intolerant, intolerance will ultimately dominate, eliminating the tolerant and the practice of tolerance with them.
The fact that Signal has not run into legal trouble when Telegram has.
Because Signal cooperates as much as they can with law enforcement. Signal happily gives all the data they have and thankfully, for its users, the only data they have is the date/time the account was created and the date (not time) a client last pinged their servers; both in unix timestamp format, they don’t even convert it to a proper date.
Additionally, Signal has no “public groups” like Telegram. Everything’s private, end-to-end encrypted by default.
Also Signal has some really shady practices, such as rejecting and killing all third party clients.
Yeah, so that’s outdated misinformation:
Three of these have existed for multiple years and have not been asked to stop development. The gurk-rs dev even commented (on reddit, unfortunately I can’t find the source) that it reports to Signal’s server as a non-official client and that if the Signal devs wanted to block it, they could easily do so.
4·24 days agoAnother great release! 🚀
2·25 days agothat’s really good to know! thanks
You may be deleting your comments in the hopes that it will pull some value away from Reddit. That’s not true, in fact, the opposite is more likely.
I would disagree.
If reddit was only about linking websites you would be correct, but that’s not where all the value comes from. Some of the value comes from the comments. Comments provide insights, provide celebrity interaction (snoop, arnold, bill gates, etc), a sense of community, technical knowledge, stories, warnings, context as well as many other things that end-users find valuable.
Remove the comments, ipso facto, you remove value.
what model do you have if you don’t mind me asking? curious what’s out there working for people from someone who would like to get into it but just hasn’t (nor looked into it very much)
As someone who’s been wanting to test (and maybe move to Podman) in the future but hasn’t really spent any time on it, what features have Red hat removed from Podman?
1·2 months agoThis is pretty huge. NVIDIA has been the broadcom wireless chip of the modern era, causing unnecessary end-user pain and preventing every day users from migrating to Linux due to hardware that’s semi-compatible that doesn’t always work out of the box. I’ve been using AMD for their open source support for a while now, but this is a welcome change to enable others to switch - or at the very least test - a fully working Linux OS without having to fight to get things working.
I’m having a similar issue lately with an AndroidTV beta (Nvidia Shield) and a Chromecast device. I wonder if its related? I unfortunately haven’t had time to look into it and just use VLC as an external player. I’ve noticed that some videos will play back with the built-in player but others will not.
EDIT: I noticed “Cinema mode” was enabled which is supposed to “Play available intros and previews before starting a movie”, but I don’t have any intros or previews. I disabled the setting and my videos are working again! Not sure why it got enabled. But if you have this on, maybe try toggling it.
EDIT2: Just saw you fixed your issue below - I’ll leave mine up in case anyone else runs into a similar problem.

I really tried making Logseq work for me but even if they added some kind of organization/hierarchy, I still had performance issues with my limited notes (just testing things, didn’t want to go all the way in), and various copy/paste drag and drop UX issues that made the experience frustrating.
