@Bali10050 Incidentally Evan (Boehs - the guy you forked from) is somewhat active on Mastodon, so if you wanted to get in touch with him it probably wouldn’t be hard; he might help point people toward your fork. In case that information is helpful at all.

My capacity to contribute would be extremely limited, but I starred the repo at least, maybe I can chip in a bit at some point in the future.

@scrubbles nooo 😭

I guess this will be a good impetus to acquire all the music I was getting through Tidal by other means, which I was kind of meaning to do anyway

@418teapot @dwawlyn BTW strace has some built-in filtering, e.g. strace --trace=openat instead of grepping for openat. Might make it a little easier.

@arran4 @voracread With some specific packages there are conflicts between different versions, so you can only have one at a time installed even if they have different slots. I think a few of the core KDE packages are like that. I know that I had to remove some parts of KDE 5 when I installed KDE 6 on my Gentoo system.

@Pantherina “I mean notes should have bold headers, not hashtags.” OK, but that reflects what *you* want from a notes app, not what everyone wants. And of course that’s totally fine, you can get that from a notes app that has WYSIWYG formatting if you find that it works for you. But I would suggest that it doesn’t make sense for you to enter a discussion about a Markdown notes app and tell a bunch of people, for many of whom that app probably works pretty well, that they’re making a bad choice to use it because it doesn’t offer the behavior you want.

For what it’s worth, I think a lot of people use Markdown notes apps in a way that you might not be considering. Like, this separation between writing and viewing that you’re talking about simply doesn’t exist in my note-taking workflow. I usually just read the raw markup, possibly with some minimal formatting added on by whatever app I’m using.

@Pantherina @louis_sch Markdown *does* resemble what you mean though. Like, that’s part of the intent of Markdown (and also part of why it became so popular), that the raw markup is readable and lends itself to being understood in the same way as the formatted version. The markup for emphasis actually looks like emphasis; the markup for a list looks like a list; likewise for a section header, or a table or footnote if you’re using a variant that supports those, or so on. So I don’t think that particular argument that Markdown is not good for note-taking holds up very well.
