Whats the use case for this? What computing platform doesn't have a text editor, but does have a webbrowser? Or are we just conditioned to use a web browser for everything?

- revolter 2y agoMy exact use case was this: I created a tab group in Safari for working on a website, and wanted to jot down some to do items related to that project, and a tab in that tab group made the most sense. I didn't want to write them down in a text editor, because they wouldn't have been bound to my context anymore. Hope my explanation makes sense. Fun fact: I saw people taking notes in translate.google.com for the same reasons that I created notepadtab.com.
