just curious, why not the sonnet models? In my personal experience, Anthropic's Sonnet models are the best when it comes to things like this!

This is a neat app. Though when looking at the files in finder it looks like while some files are stored as '.md' files the sample md files only contain HTML.
Ah that might be a bug sorry, the sample notes should also have the html extension. The notes themselves are currently stored as html (because of the metadata and the state in notes mainly, you can still export to markdown).
We need to do some work before we can also just store them simply as markdown files.

Kudos on the launch. Love the local-ai approach.
Regarding open models: what is the go-to way for me to make Surf run with qwen3-vl? Ollama?
As far as I understand any endpoint that supports the completions API will work?
https://github.com/deta/surf/blob/main/docs/AI_MODELS.md
If I attach image context will it be provided to qwen3-vl? Or does this only work with the "main" models like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and so on?
Thank you.
Yes, we support any endpoint that supports the completions API. And yes, Ollama might be the easiest to setup. The images should also work with qwen3-vl.
But if you run into any issues, please feel free to submit a bug report https://github.com/deta/surf/issues
Edit: fixed github issues link

Imagine dying because you can’t post on Facebook so you rioted and vandalized government buildings.
Please make yourself aware of all the facts before posting ignorant comments like this. Children died, shot while protesting against blatant corruption and lack of accountability that's going on for decades. The social media ban was just the final straw.

Great work, I can imagine how interesting the migration went. Why are you using Redis if I may ask? Was something like sqlite not enough? What are your biggest challenges with Tauri?
I also work with an Electron app and we also do local embeddings and most of the CPU intensive work happens in nodejs addons written in Rust and using Neon (https://neon-rs.dev very grateful for this lib). This is a nice balance for us.
Sad to see, Outer Wilds is probably the best game I've ever played. But I'm sure the staff will continue doing great work in whatever they decide to do next.

I have gotten into the habbit of removing any software with opt-in AI chatbots. I recently uninstalled iTerm2, and I fear Firefox will be next.
just curious, why is this the case?
this is brilliant, the questions are hilarious, didn't beat the game yet
