Just came to say that official client (all its processes combined) uses 1.1Gb of RAM on my macbook air, while this, playing the same track from the same playlist and nothing else, gets only up to 280Mb

I mean, most of us already use either IDE or a text editor for work, so why not just type non-work markdown files in them? Be it VS Code or JetBrains.

Thread hijacking but, I wonder more why Apple keeps the built-in TextEdit at its crappy state, it would be a fantastic text editor if fixed

thanks for the feedback, really appreciate it! The "services" in good type is there to fulfill the legal requirements, haven't thought of it in your POV, will implement such product type. In a meantime, could you use the digital type?

I built a small app for one problem: too many inputs, too little structure.

Most todo tools assume every item is a task. In reality I need one inbox for mixed things: tasks, events, links, movie/book tips, random reminders.

Cappu’s flow is: capture fast now, process later in a focused pass, then work from sorted views (workspace + timeline).

It’s a mobile-first PWA (no App Store), and you can test all features for free. Paywall is only for account sync/server storage across devices.

I’d love feedback from HN on the workflow itself: does “capture first, classify later” make sense, or would you do it differently?

hijacking this, what is the best local model (and tool to use it) for programming, if i only have 256gb ssd on a mac? im very used to codex and while i get that it will never be this smart locally, is there any coding model like it, not too heavy on space?

Repo: https://github.com/arajnoha/phodo ultra minimalist web todo app (php+html+css). stores everthing in single JSON, has a day view, allows you only to mark as done, delete and add. list days back and forth + jump to today. When task is added while listing days, its added to that listed day. PHP and CSS are both below 100 LOC.

Im working on simplyfing the code further. I tried really all of the "productivity" stuff to stay organised. Got angry multiple times, went to pen and paper, was OK, but i felt i just need a slight glimps of tech to make it more functional. Something little more than plaintext file, but not much.

thats why i always choose dribbble as a go-to for a nice looking yet not "award winning" stuff

So I got, like many others, caught into the productivity cycle, trying to find the best app for this and that. Notetaking, todo lists, calendars. And all are extremely bloated or paid. I fell in love with the todo.txt CLI program and simply made a web equivalent, so I can perform those simple actions on the go from iOS as well. I initially made a robust PWA, but then started to question every part until i got to 100 LOC. Im considering a box listing the overdue stuff, but that will be the last overhead.
