You should look at https://github.com/TriliumNext/Trilium. It's what I use every day for the things that you mentioned.

Thanks for sharing. Are you using it on mobile? How is the experience?

Maybe this makes me a grumpy old man, but I feel like if you're primary role is to write software which interacts with a SQL database you should understand how to interact directly with that database. Not because you're going to do it frequently, but because understanding the thing your ORM is abstracting away for you allows you to more intelligently use those abstractions without making whoever runs the underlying database cry.

I agree that there should be a general understanding one should be able to interact with it when needed. But at the same time I don't think devs need to be able to spit out queries with the right syntax on the spot in an interview setting.

Also, where are the AI features? What's your AI strategy? And how much tracking data do you generate and sell?

More seriously, thank you for creating this, it's refreshing and fun.

Add a button that generates more pics of his wife. Could monetize that too.

But how are you going to monetize? Are you looking to raise? Moat seems low to me tbh... ;)

This is great. Props for making something fun.

Add pics of other women too. Charge the wife so she gets notified if he swipes right on anyone else.

You mean the same companies they are hosting their VCS in and providing the infrastructure they deploy their codebases to? All in support of their CRUD application that is in a space with 15 identical competitors? My codebase is not my secret sauce.

Sure, the codebase itself isn't special. But it's the principle and ethics of it all. These companies trained their models unethically without consequence, and now people are eating up their artificially inflated hype and are lining up to give them money and their data on a silver platter.

Whether it's vibe coding, agentic coding, or copy pasting from the web interface to your editor, it's still sad to see the normalization of private (i.e., paid) LLM models. I like the progress that LLMs introduce and I see them as a powerful tool, but I cannot understand how programmers (whether complete nobodies or popular figures) dont mind adding a strong dependency on a third party in order to keep programming. Programming used to be (and still is, to a large extent) an activity that can be done with open and free tools. I am afraid that in a few years, that will no longer be possible (as in most programmers will be so tied to a paid LLM, that not using them would be like not using an IDE or vim nowadays), since everyone is using private LLMs. The excuse "but you earn six figures, what' $200/month to you?" doesn't really capture the issue here.

And how they don't mind freely opening up their codebase to these bigtech companies.
