The times when I don't remember how something works, usually I have to go the stackoverflow answers/documentation to read on how it works, maybe try it out a few times in the shell, before writing the code. For typechecking and errors I have been using ALE and it does give a warning if there's something wrong and this setup is working fine for me.
Using a different email provider, storage service, firefox, search engine etc. However I still have to keep chromium/chrome around since some features I noticed just don't work properly with firefox.
On reading about recent http/2 and http/3 development (https://ripe76.ripe.net/presentations/10-2018-05-15-bbr.pdf) and google's approach to it, one megacorp deciding what is best for the rest of us feels too much power in someone's hands.
The problem here I am facing is, when the object is loaded a lot of memory is used and the memory used is not freed fully, so the difference in this accumulates gradually. So I was looking for formats which can be processed without keeping the entire text in memory.
I love this setup as there is no internet needed, full text search on all the documents and very less friction while starting to write something. I have tried other apps like obsidian, roam etc but keep coming back to this one due to its simplicity.
I really hope many people get to know of this and can use/contribute to it. One big challenge might be to how to have something as an APP store, without a lot of malware/ poor quality apps.
