As a fan of Vim, I'm a fan of this solution. Are you able to access them on your phone?

Encryption is a rabbit hole I want to jump down soon. Other users recommended Triliumnext looks like they do file encryption like that worth checking out https://triliumnext.github.io/Docs/Wiki/protected-notes

I agree Notion is great. I prefer it if I need a shared PKMS such as a company wide document system.

That said I've played around with its API a few years ago and with page elements being block elements you need to loop through n amount of requests to get the content, it didn't make sense for my use case.

Another person in the thread recommended it. I'll have to check it out this week thanks!

Thanks for sharing. Their encryption service is a nice source of inspiration on note encryption https://github.com/TriliumNext/Notes/blob/56d4d7c20f775eed73...

Holy shit this is awesome

In 20 years will that plugin work? I doubt it.

Made a comment in the thread explaining this https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44023090

I expect my PKMS to evolve and wouldn't rule out a self-hosted Git server if I find it's a better option long term.

Sounds like something I would use. A demo gif in the readme would help understand what it does faster

Glad to see they have improved their pricing. It was 8/mo paid for a full year or 10/mo paid monthly last year when I decided to build this.

Thanks. More devs should write about what they're building. Its the hardest part for me

AI image gen

This is just the sort of tooling there should be more community around.

A gif would help clarify what your tool does. I've used an automated flow with Github Actions and Charm's VHS (https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs) in my repo here to demo my CLI tool I built a while back (https://github.com/Amber-Williams/yall/blob/main/demo.gif). Might be of interest : )

Thanks I'll revise the article

Thanks for sharing. I'll have a play with Gitea

My concern with this approach would be I've read through Directus' codebase and can understand it. With a self-hosted Git server like this I'd be worried if shit hit the fan and corrupted my Git files or stopped being maintained I'd be a duck out of water

You have a good point. I don't have experience hosting Git servers personally. Is it easy to run and maintain? I'll have a try on my VPS if it is.

Thanks for the feedback! Agreed Git can be used to sync your notes. Its a great solution for those comfortable putting their notes into a Git repo like Github. I wasn't comfortable with that however.

Currently vetting a way to sync my database files with my markdown files on my laptop, so it functions similar to Obsidian. I enjoy Vim too much to work constrained to Directus' markdown editor!

Good point. I also use my PKMS as a CMS for my blog. Might just split out the services and go this route.

Yep fair point. I'm doing the project in chucks and writing about it. his written part notably unlocks the ability to use my phone. Currently vetting a way to sync my database files with my markdown files on my laptop as I enjoy using Vim.

Funny enough I had downloaded a-shell and experimented with it and going git based. But ultimately didn't want my notes stored through Github. If that way works for you, cool!

This article is a background of why I built my own PKMS. I've also written another article with a step-by-step on how I built it here https://amberwilliams.io/blogs/the-last-note-system

I found this article while doing a write up about why I created my own personal knowledge management (PKM) tooling. While my preference for record keeping is digital, it still has valuable take aways. Besides search functionality, with NLP/AI there are steep arguments for making the digital shift more than ever for those who haven't.

Here's an article about how I created my PKM here https://amberwilliams.io/blogs/the-last-note-system the "why" part I'm hoping to publish later this week.

Seems useful. Do you happen to have documentation on required computer specs?

The performance bump doesn't justify the steep price difference.

From a for profit business lens for OpenAI - I understand pushing the price outside the range of side projects, but this pushes it past start ups.

Excited to see new stuff released past reasoning models in any case. Hope they can improve the price soon.

I've updated the marketing site since your comment.

Will be looking into legal copy again after I stop having fun with other feature requests.

I've updated the marketing site. I realized light mode users had a mixed version of the marketing page which is meant to be dark mode only.

The app will default to your dark/light mode preference. It can be set in settings additionally.

You can delete cards if you review a card, flip the back and click the trashcan icon on the upper left hand side.

Ideally users are relying on the spaced repetition algorithm and should see cards they know less frequently rather than removing them from their deck.

Right makes sense Duolingo has that feature as well.

Its free - I don't have plans to monetize this app. Its a passion project and at the moment costs me less than $30 a month to run. Its been a heap of fun to scale / market past what I do in my job day to day.

> I wanted a way to switch sides of the cards

Will add support for switching sides of the cards to the next release. My thought here is that once you have gotten the card correct _n_ times, you'll then will see the flipped english only side to reinforce memory recall. Albeit maybe this is better up to the user to change the mode.

I'm also playing around with another card type thats only voice and the user needs to type the answer.

> there were a bunch of translations that made me suspicious, especially translating Spanish future with English present.

There's an issue around single words vs the word in the examples. For example, "bill" in Spanish for the single card is "factura" when the examples are all using "cuenta". I'm working on improving this.

I'll run the output by a few native Spanish friends to ensure it's getting future tense correct.

hey again I added Korean for you. I plan to add romanization support over the next week or so.

Give me a shout if you have any other things you'd like to see

I would download this if you had a latin language spin off
