dogas commented on Hyprland – An independent, dynamic tiling Wayland compositor   hypr.land/... · Posted by u/AbuAssar

I've attempted many times to adopt Hyprland, but I always come back to swaywm. Stability and speed always seem to be an issue. Both hyprland and the plugins (hyprpm, etc) have an alpha-level quality to them.

I have nothing but respect for vaxerski. He's 100% dedicated to the project and is incredibly prolific. But I feel like they need a better release strategy for those who prioritize stability over shiny new thing.

I was writing them email templates 15 years ago... oh... look we are still using tables. How has email markup not evolved?
dogas · a year ago
We still have to use outdated layout / css techniques because some email clients (cough outlook) only support a limited set of HTML/CSS features, and they seem to have no plans to want to make things easier for those who send html emails.

See https://www.caniemail.com/scoreboard/ and take note of what's at the bottom of that list.

Interesting to see their test indicating battery life is worse than the Intel 13th gen variant. Notebookcheck's result[1] was vastly different:

> Runtimes are longer than the Intel-based configurations by significant margins due to the lower power consumption levels mentioned above. We're able to browse the web for over 3 hours longer on our AMD model versus the Core i7-1370P model when both are set to Balanced mode and 150 nit brightness.

I was a huge Notion fan. However, the long sync times were driving me nuts. I have since moved to inkdrop (https://www.inkdrop.app/) because it's much better for my use case:

* I can write Markdown notes. I've only wanted to write markdown notes.

* The syncing is incredibly fast because it's using an existing technology purpose-built for syncing (CouchDB)

* I can bring my own CouchDB and not have my data locked in

* Has a mobile app that works well

* There is a "vim mode" and that makes me happy.

Related, there is also the Olschool PC font Resource which is a fun site to visit:

I've been using ultralist (https://ultralist.io) and love it. It's open source + command-line based.

dogas · 6 years ago
Throwing my failed side project into the ring as well - Ultralist[1][2] is very similar to todo.txt but has a bigger focus on Due dates. I use it every day.

The CLI portion is fully baked and works great, but the webapp and syncing part never really gained traction.
