Not just possible, currently being implemented. People are murdered every year using this information. Last year a US politician was assassinated by someone who tracked them by buying this information from aggregator. You thought of a tame

And you can limit which contacts you share with nosy app like WhatsApp, and give access to only specific scope of file folders. Horrifying to think all the years every app got everything it wanted and did not have to ask and couldn't b

Every single app you've ever downloaded basically shares this same property. You either audited the code and know what it does or you are taking someone's word for it.

Yes but helix for example has very good discoverability by presenting commands on the screen which you can read slowly or not even notice between memorized key presses. And even ancient editors like vi it means printing out or having the co

Exactly, this is what I was getting at. The guy above uses open source software every time he touches anything electric.

Highly recommend it

by backscratches 4mo ago
I do too. The setup I've described is best for big screen work when I need tools that dont compromise in any way.

No, its a really ignorant name collision. And the helix text editor is much better.

Like other commenter referenced, the markdown-oxide LSP replicates the core of obsidian better than obsidian does. I use it with helix. I described by setup in more detail above: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48180639

Being a better version of something is an invitation, not an imposition! I'm not a developer and never have been, I study literatureand I use a modal editor for all my writing. If you've ever used Ctrl+C to copy, you've alrea

I use .MD files, helix terminal editor with a markdown LSP called markdown-oxide that replicates the obsidian feature set (like bidirectional links, tags, making new notes automatically, two keys get you from a in-line footnote to the defin
