Nice! Looking forward to similar textual generation of diagrams. (The Pic/Pikchr for the LLM age.)

It’s not PIC and not really suitable for complex diagrams, yet, but you can use Vizzlo’s Chart Vizzard to create a subset of the supported chart types (let’s say a Gantt) and then continue editing it using the chart editor: https://vizzlo.com/ai

The reason that there's so many TUI apps in Rust is probably thanks in large part to the Ratatui crate, which is a framework for TUI apps: https://crates.io/crates/ratatui

But yes, if you're making any sort of TUI app, please include a screenshot or asciinema in the readme. :)

Looks like the terminal but can't zoom in on mobile, I guess UsabilityNightmares for threads too

IIRC it's the Calculator. :(

It's kind of hard to tell how real your problems are without knowing which environment you are talking about, but it would be helpful to know where you have encountered these problems. I haven't seen them in any of the apps or OSes I regularly use (Windows, macOS).

On both Windows and macOS, windows are clearly delimited by drop shadows. You have to go out of your way as a malicious app developer to explicitly disable that.

I haven't interacted with a scrollbar in decades. Its purpose in 2024 is a visual cue.

I think this is a bug, I had the same issue but then went to "Customize Sidebar" and toggled "Sidebar settings" to "Always show" and now I see titles, regardless of which sidebar show setting I have

That did the trick, thank you!

Happy that this will finally be a feature of FF. Still pretty useless for me, though, for these reasons:

- There's an empty tab bar shown at the top of the window.

- Currently, there's now way to enable a wider sidebar that shows tab titles, too.

Went through the list, all listed services are SaaS apps. :(

Granted, most of them are self-hosted (not all!), but this list needs to be called norecurringfee.com ….
