- conradludgate 3y agoIt's always fair to be critical of these things. However the energy we spend on this is our concern. At the end of the day, Ellie and I work on this because these features actually improve our workflows. The directory search feature is probably my favourite, and the sync feature is the key feature Ellie wanted to begin with.
- grammarxcore 3y agoHave you considered that you might not be the target audience? Atuin’s ability to sync across computers while being able to separate the context the command was used in has been incredibly useful to my team.
- alehlopeh 3y agoYou must be getting old because you're unable to see the irony in spending the time and energy to make a comment decrying the quasi-usefulness of how others choose to spend their energy.
- makeitdouble 3y agoOn the getting old part, there's definitely a point where someone has enough bagage thay most additional tools are solving a problem they already worked around or solved a different way. For someone new to the field, this tool is on the same footing as the rest and could fit them better. As an aside, the part I like the most about our field is the ability for a single or two devs to build themselves the tools they exactly need, and potentially share it to the community with low friction.
