I dream of such a lo-fi UI: no animations, no redundant elements, no individually different look&feel for every app - only the information you really need, displayed where and when it really makes sense, updated when necessary, formatte

Sure, this can be an inconvenience when you type a lot and use a single-display setup. But I read way more and consider single-monitor work resemble running on crutches. This said I would probably put an eInk and a classic display alongside

This seems a reasonable assumption to me but I don't mean to insist I'm right. Slow monochrome eInk panels have been around for 2 decades. Mostly built into pocket book readers, phones (like Motorola F3) and niche devices like sup

I'm sad all eInk monitor makers want to ship high refresh rates and other parameters to compete with classic displays, making them this expensive. I would rather buy a cheap 1 Hz monochrome eInk display (at least FullHD size and HDMI&#

What I am glad to leave behind and forget like a nightmare is Windows local networking with shared folders etc - these never worked nice and the last time anybody I know used these was pre-2010. Today we just use NextCloud, Matrix, email an

Is it going to support manifest v2 after it is phased out by Google or whoever is going to own Chrome?
