Out of curiosity rather than necessity, are there any activitypub based messaging apps (i.e matrix/discord-like)?
One not listed is Ibis (https://ibis.wiki/) which hasn't had much traction. Honestly unsure of how useful it is as a direct wikipedia replacement but i can see it as a cool idea for a bunch of related communities that would otherwise be on separate wikis.
I have an older, second hand Thinkpad Yoga but it has served me really well with Fedora installed on it.
I also have a PineTab 2 but that has been a little bit of a rough start and still doesn't feel that great as a day to day device just yet
Honesyly I think I prefer the laptop form factor over tablet + smart cover. Even my old Android Asus Transformer I used almost exclusively in laptop mode to do anything productive.
Willing to give this a go. My go-to for getting non-repo debs automatically has been deb-get which works well but seems susceptible to issues when changes in the software it lists causes it to break and whilst the fix itself is usually made pretty quickly, it seems to go long periods of time between PR merges and releases (which includes adding new software). If this is a viable replacement for it then i'd love to start using it.
I've just moved to Thunderbird. I was never keen on the old design and found it rather clunky but the new UI I find much better.
I was using Mailspring but it has recently just refused to work on my device and I never even got a response on the community forums so I've just given up on it.
Pulsar is a fork of Atom under active development. We don't publish a flatpak (yet) but there is a community maintained flatpak for it.
Otherwise if you want to look at something else I'd give Lite XL, Lapce or even Zed (it has now been open sourced and looks like it has a flatpak available) a look as interesting alternatives.
Pulsar is the current maintained fork of that project, we forked it before it got shut down and are actively developing it,
Yes and no. The original project is dead but we forked it and continue to maintain and improve it as Pulsar
Joplin is a note taking app that stores its data in an sqlite database (easy to query but not a good idea to write to it) but there is also a command line version and both versions support access via a data API.
What about something like navi - https://github.com/denisidoro/navi. Basically an interactive cheat sheet that has commands pre-loaded (or that you can make yourself).
Watch this space for the full history, I'm literally putting the final touches on a blog post that will go into details of how Atom started then how it became Pulsar as a little celebration after we hit 3k stars.
Just to clarify, the Pulsar devs aren't ex-Atom devs. Some of the team are from atom-community but none of the core Pulsar team were part of the official Atom team.
