It's great, pretty niche but very useful to people that need to take notes, and I really liked the video explaining how to use it.

It's without any cool slogans, cool modern stock images or life stories explaining why you built it: just straight to the point.

I wish more people made things so simple. I see the title, watch the video, and immediately understand what it is and what it does.

Half of the submissions on Show HN, I have no idea what I'm looking at. Usually submissions have titles like «Change the future of the internet», have modern landing pages with some quotes, icons and animations, and show no real example of the product they are trying to promote. That's too much marketing for me.

Thanks for your submission.

> Would you like people to use one time emails on registration so you will be never able to reach them out?

If a user doesn't want you to be able to reach him out, he absolutely should have a right to be able to do that.

This reminds me of patchbay.

Hey Sergei, are you Keyboard Ninja?

This will be off topic, but can you list your software that you use to make everything keyboard friendly?

I personally use Keypirinha as my launcher, Total Commander as my file manager, and Firefox with Vimium-C extension as browser.

As someone who lives in Kazakhstan, I can confirm, backups are basically useless here because speeds are so bad it's faster to fly a plane than download files…

Imgin?

If using firefox, try Redirector extension to redirect all imgur links to imgmin.

I think alternativeto.net is the database of software that already exists, many people use, and it would be better to focus on developing and promoting it, instead of creating new sites from scratch.

Due to my work I travel a lot (and by that I mean that I can be in new city every day). I don't want to give google my phone number or my other email, so my account is not tied to anything, the only factor is the password.

Turns out if you try to log in from new device from new location (I guess your account is tied to IP from which it was created), just password alone isn't enough to log in. And there's no alternative way to prove that account actually belongs to me.

I understand that most services try to provide you with good security, but I hate it when everything is overcomplicated and everyone tells me what to do. No, I don't want to give you my phone number. Yes, I know I won't be able to recover my password, I don't need that. Yes, I actually want my password to be this long. No, I don't want you to block login attempts from new locations. Believe it or not, people do travel and want to log in from more than 1 city. It's none of your business if I want to give my password to my friend and let him login, just stop this please. Let me choose whatever password I want without any backup emails, phone numbers, and let everyone who knows the password log in. Is it too much to ask?

Why is it even allowed to let users create accounts without providing a phone number, but then not letting those same users to log in because their accounts are not tied to any phone number? How does it make any sense?

Their account security is so good, I'm not able to log in to my own account even when I know the exact username/password, and I hate it.

That kind of reminds me of Dota 2, where knowing your rating tilts you into playing even worse, when you are below average, or makes you toxic when you are above average (because everyone believes they are so good at the game).

There is also an «unranked» mode, where you can play without showing any numbers, but the big difference is that Dota 2 is a team game, and while some people play unranked to be more relaxed and care less about their rating, a lot of players won't try hard to win, because they don't see a point in winning if they don't see their rating get higher anyway.

It's frustrating that community forces you to play ranked if you actually want to win, but you can't relax when you know you are mediocre.

Why does it require sign up though?…

I don't remember any, sorry… There were lots of submissions here on Show HN recently, many good examples among them.

I'm sorry, but most of the users won't even try to see what your site does if you force them create account first. Show a good interactive demo or place a video of the page, or don't force user to provide their email and other information to even let them see what it does.

Also, I didn't find a «Pricing» link anywhere, I bet it's not free, right?

» RemNote might not be supported in your browser. Please consider using Google Chrome.

Thanks, but no.

This was posted here dozens of times. That's what I'd call «spam». Wish I could report it.

It's kind of last.fm for links, right? I've heard that last.fm does this for music: it finds your «neighbors» — people that have same taste as yours and recommends you what they like. But last.fm doesn't have downvotes or dislikes, so your system is more complicated, and I hope it's also more effective.

I signed up and will try to find some links I like, thanks!

How is it better than Obsidian, that stores files locally?

I didn't find any info about pricing, also I can't find how to delete a «project» (created three of them when I was randomly clicking all the buttons to understand better how your site works and now don't know how to get rid of them).

Are you going to add tree style comments view (like here on HN or on Reddit)?

There was a software called 3dclip, which is essentially Ditto, but much more lightweight. I think it uses native windows elements and written without use of big libraries.

Unfortunately it's discontinued and website isn't available anymore, but I have installer for anyone who is interested (it's not modified or anything). It doesn't have history search, but if all you want is a multiclipboard, it does that, and some other useful things as well. I use it for many years and happy with it.

Tried Ditto but it's too big and slow for my taste.

UPD: I was wrong, site is still up.

https://www.3dclipboard.com/

There's Syncplay for that.

https://syncplay.pl/

This is completely unrelated, but FYI, website is not reachable from Kazakhstan.

I know this is a problem with Kazakhstan government blocking everything left and right, but maybe you'll try to contact them and fix it somehow (I think few months ago I could access it without VPN, now I can't).

What amazes me (as an Android user) is that mobile Google drive app doesn't do what you'd expect from it: on PC it allows you to keep few folders on different devices in sync, but on Android the app just allows you to browse/open those folders, not keep a full mirror of any folder from your PC locally.

There are some third party apps that kind of do this for you, but shouldn't Google just make their app do what it is supposed to do? Where's the «backup and sync» alternative for Android? That's the only thing I need to use obsidian on mobile and get rid of Keep or any other app, because obsidian on desktop is just perfect for my needs.

I used to use Zim wiki before, and it was almost what I need, but it didn't use markdown, looked uglier, was slower, and there was no mobile app.

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but when I type some text (I use Firefox) nothing happens.

Thanks, that looks awesome (and funny), definitely something I need. Any chance to make it work with anything other than SMS? Whatsapp/Telegram?

I know «whatsapp bad», but let's not discuss it for now (many older people use it and I have to talk to them sometimes).

Also, UJI:

https://doersino.github.io/uji/

I'm not the one who originally asked, but can it be made available in Kazakhstan?

I want to at least see what it looks like and what it does, because I don't understand what it's about from title and I'm just curious.

What does it do that https://www.sharedrop.io/ and https://snapdrop.net/ don't do?

Make sure you post it to Show HM when it's ready, I would definitely check it out.

That's great, but what I'm interested in is, what happens if those boostrap peers are somehow blocked or unavailable? Can we be sure that have 100% uptime?

Can we host our own bootstrap peer and point our hyprspace clients to use that?

If not, then how is it different from ZeroToer?

Too bad I'm on Windows.
