  Thanks a lot. This is great — always nice to try new tools.

It’s often mentioned on HN. That’s how i discovered it. https://hn.algolia.com/?query=krita&sort=byPopularity&prefix&page=0&dateRange=all&type=story https://hn.algolia.com/?query=krita&sort=byPopularity&prefix... Is there a way to get weekly summary of HN for the top stories? There are probably lots of stories I miss.

  I use Materialistic[0] which besides the usual features has a "catch up" function which can be set to past 24 hrs, week, month, year. I don't use it much, but it just crashed when I did, so ymmv 0- https://f-droid.org/packages/io.github.hidroh.materialistic/ https://f-droid.org/packages/io.github.hidroh.materialistic/

My impression is that the American software community sometimes doesn't pay much attention to what's coming out of Europe. Have a look at other KDE-based programs if you haven't already - IME KVirc, Kile, KTorrent, and indeed Konqueror and KMail are best-in-class.

  I accidentally installed the group of KDE applications on my laptop and am consistently amazed by how many cool/useful tools there are. It's better than MacOS utilities or similar windows tools by a wide margin. Cantor is the latest one I found. It's basically a Jupiter notebook that runs natively instead of in a web browser.

    It's actually where WebKit came from... KHTML.

  > KMail are best-in-class. As someone who uses KMail every day, no, it really isn't. KMail is in need of some polish.
  - djcapelis 9y ago
    Is there a mail client where that isn't true? Best in class might just not be as high a bar as we'd like in this area.

      Outlook is pretty close. What I really want, though, is GMail style conversation view that works with traditional inline replies.

        A lot of the KDEPIM devs are working on Kube, which might be what you are after in... a long time. Whenever its ready. Though its been in development for two years and its soon to release 0.6, so it probably won't hit 1.0 for another two.
