  • The big thing for me is a hotkey which launches a window I can put in an application (partial is fine) or command and it starts or runs the command… so I do <Ctrl>+<Space>dark and it launches darktable. You can also have plugins that do things. So for example, after I upload my .torrent files, I delete them locally. So I have a rm command which just runs rm ~/Downloads/*.torrent.

    Yes, I could click on the menu, type in the command I’m looking for but this is a little quicker. Plugins also allow you to do complicated tasks quickly.

    I dunno, I’ve gotten used to it.










  • If you are looking for FOSS, I highly recommend joplin. It’s simple but works well. I used it for many years until recently I switched to Obsidian. I dislike that Obsidian isn’t FOSS but I’m using the free tier and the community plugins really make it so much more powerful than Joplin. They both store things in Markdown so I’m not locked down to their ecosystem which I think is a requirement for any note taking app.
