That looks amazing, thanks for posting. I'd seen other posts about this but missed the regular expressions and saved searches bits.

Re: Knowlege management / connected markdown editors (Electron-based)

You may want to edit your post and correct the link All fixed, thanks for that. I have a ton of boilerplate forum posts built up over the years that I use and then fill in the blanks. I didn't follow through with this one. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences on these as the choice of t...

Oddly their KCleaner program was among my favorites, but SuMO definitely was one of my most-used programs when I was scouring sites for updates.

Sad news.

Old thread update : this project seems to be long dead.

Re: Obsidian - markdown editor

Supposedly there's a portable mode available via an interesting "Enigma protector" packaging software that reminds me of VMWare Thinstall Sounds like overkill? Doesn't the trick posted by hamasaki https://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=105368#p105368 work as it is electro...

Re: Obsidian - markdown editor

Update : Obsidian 1.4.5 came out a few days ago (2023-08-31). This program has completely taken over my workflow and unified a lot of note taking tools I have. I still use Zettlr for quickly importing things like MS Word and HTML into markdown, but Obsidian's unifying content and customization has ...

Re: oldcomputers

Found some gems in here that I feel sure are only something that's interesting to me but I'll post it anyhow ... --- First, I have a running theory with mixed evidence that writing good tech manuals is a lost art.

Re: WhatsApp

E-mail seems to trigger higher quality in both, style and content. That's interesting -- I seem to have heard a lot of grumping on how people want to use something other than email, but maybe it's *because* of what you describe here. We expect a little better from people when they send us an email ...

I haven't seen anything on this in the years since the topic appeared. Unfortunately my best advice is to not use any Facebook properties, including Whatsapp, Instagram, Metaverse, Threads, etc.
