  • App Should Have Been a Website (and Probably Your Game Too)
    10 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 31 Dec 2024
    Hi there! Yes, I will switch to a more distinctive icon in the future once I can afford to hire a new designer.

    Multiplayer was quoting the correct reason. I also exeplained more about the timeline here: https://github.com/nuttyartist/notes/issues/690#issuecomment...

    Tldr: The FOSS version earned a stable revenue through Google Ads placed on the website, since the website ranked high on Google searches. Two years ago, that changed since the website got de-ranked, so I created a different, proprietary version of the app based on the FOSS version but with a totally revamped block editor that I wrote from scratch - that I worked on full-time for a whole 1 year.

  • Show HN: Brisk – Cross-Platform C++ GUI Framework: Declarative, Reactive, Fast

    > I use Qt myself and one of the best things about the framework and toolkit is the UI tooling that allows me to drag and drop and visually create my UIs in the UI Designer app.

    But then it's not trivial to write responsive/adaptive applications. In contrast, QML makes it extremely easy to build such apps.

    I used to build UIs in the designer as well[1] but after studying QML there's no going back. Here's a new project I program solely in QML (and C++ for the logic)[2].

  • Show HN: Serverless collaborative notion-level note editor using CRDT in GO
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 7 May 2024
    Thanks! I'm not 100% sure about this, still hearing feedback from people on both ends. Some reasons for the switch would be:

    1. File versioning

    2. Easier self-hosted syncing

    3. Better data portability (although we already support exporting to .txt)

    I would love to hear counterpoints. Currently, SQLite works pretty well, and our custom database is pretty simple (plus, our database code is also open source[1]).

  • Joplin is an open source note-taking app
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Mar 2024
    Plume is actually based on my open source note-taking app Notes[1]. You can already get it on Flathub, Snap Store etc. Notes uses just a simple plain text editor while Plume has a completely revamped block editor that I built from scratch. That parts of Notes used in Plume will remain open source (per the MPL license) but the rest of the code will be closed source. At least for the time being.

  • Why I Like Obsidian
    22 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 17 Jan 2024
    Plume is built on top of my open source note-taking app Notes[1]. Since Plume is based on Notes, I'll of course comply with the MPL license and release all existing files that were changed (and must stay MPL licensed).

    But I recently discussed my reasoning to go close-source with Plume[2]. I've been working night and day (every day) converting 4 cups of coffee into code for the last 4.5 months to create Plume. I don't want to risk not being rewarded sufficiently for it. But, I'm 99% sure that I'll either open source the core block editor or the entire app in the future.

  • Ask HN: What do you use for note-taking or as knowledge base?
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Jan 2024
    2. Each note is just a simple plaintext in the underlying data (although currently stored in a database, but in a future update we'll convert the database to an arbitrary folder).

    So you can create beautiful and advanced notes, easy. In a non-proprietary format (when that future update arrives). All while using a resource efficient and fast software that is cross-platform.
