Love Thunderbird, and super glad to see that its development pace is picking up again. The only big thing missing now is a three pane view: there is this 17 (!) years bug on the topic, and hopefully somebody will pick it up soon (Before you

It might sound stupid, but looking at the marketing plan attached to this article ( https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/s/jzryGw7XDkJadmo#p... ) I wonder how they could deliver such an important message in such a

Update: after writing this I checked again, and with the latest update to the Nextcloud iOS app it is possible to directly open and save the Keepass database from Nextcloud. No need for BoxCryptor anymore. Hurray for Nextcloud!

Same here, the setup is working great I use Keepass2Android, which works great with Nextcloud and handles very well offline usage and subsequent merge of the database. On iOS the experience is much worse: I use KeePassium but it does not co

I share your comment on tooling. At my former job we developed a documentation portal with Antora and AsciiDoc https://antora.org/ . I say developed rather than deployed as we ended up adding a ton of extra features to Anto

Based on the very limited documentation it seems to follow a similar approach to PySinpleGUI https://github.com/PySimpleGUI/PySimpleGUI PySimpleGUI is indeed simple and quick, not very elegant but useful for small util

WebSharper does also something similar -> https://developers.websharper.com/docs/v4.x/fs/remoting Are there similar ideas/libraries implemented in JS/TS as well? I am quite drawn by these ideas,

Yeah me too. I have to say that even if I love Linux and run it on all my personal machines, the keyboard shortcuts of Windows tend to be much more effective than let's say KDE or Gnome. Control+shift+N to make new folders, win + arrow

I think your point is in line with the article. Comment WHY you are doing something, rather than commenting HOW. And, if you are in a hurry and the logic/naming is somewhat unclear, leave a comment to clarify. In a future refactor, the

Well, I have a small living room server/home lab as well, but it's a 12 years old MacBook pro running Debian. I love the idea of having my own server where to run small personal projects, have some daemons running in the backgroun

What you descrive is very similar to Rezoom.SQL for F#. https://github.com/rspeele/Rezoom.SQL It has type checked queries in plain SQL (based on SQLite syntax), compile time consistency checks, autocomplete, schema mig

Cool project! I set out to do something similar as well, but with a slight different scope. I wanted a web gallery that I can use to access all my (substantial) collection of pictures, that does not need any maintenance/work to get sta

You might want to give KDE Plasma a shot: it handles scaling quite well. I find it much superior wrt Gnome, but that's a matter of preferences of course.
