• Syncthing: A continuous file synchronization program

  For iOS, I placed a syncthing folder inside my iCloud directory and it works fairly well. My MacBook, an always-on Pi, and a few other boxes run syncthing for a directory full of Markdown files that I use with Notational Velocity[0] on Mac and 1Writer[1] (highly recommended!) on iOS. Using it this way for a couple years and it works well, occasionally go through and diff the sync conflict files that slowly... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Show HN: Simple TODO with tag based filtering

  Just picking and choosing the best features from my favorite apps: - TaskPaper tags are nice, but isn't multi-platform. - I like search+creation UX of nvAlt (explained well on: https://notational.net/), but no decent non-mac clients. Also non-plaintext richtext gets in the way. - I use SimpleNote because it's multiplatform, but the tags are hard to use. Also somethings like inter-note tags are just a distraction... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

My hands never leave the keyboard; I just... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What do you dislike in the note-taking apps you use and why?

• Loop: Open-Source macOS Window Manager

  I am a big fan of Divvy (https://mizage.com/divvy/)—while both dated and paid, it has a wonderful feature of a visual tile map you can use. In all other cases I know, there are a bunch of shortcuts to make a window upper-top or something. But in many cases, it is not enough, as I need fine-grain control. - Source: Hacker News / 12 days ago

• Ask HN: Why does Apple refuse to add window snapping to macOS?

  Ooooo good tip, thanks! This might be a good replacement for Divvy [0], which I used until it EoL’d [0] https://mizage.com/divvy/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
