FYI, it's fairly easy to have Proton Drive on linux using rclone [0], for push/pull/sync.

That's cool but it's hacky (reverse engineered from the open source app), would be cool if they had an official API!


Great idea! After a quick search, there's some plugins[0][1] that could work for my use case!

Awesome, glad to help, and thanks for sharing those addons, didn’t know about them!


Good point, I tried to use it too as it seems to cover most of my points, but it's unsupported on macOS and iOS.


Oh this looks great! Thank you!


Great to know, I always read that people dislike Obsidian for being closed-source. It's also not self-hosted by default, but seems possible with a sync plugin. Thanks, I will look into it!


Yeah the client is unfortunately closed source.

The only reason I'm okay with that is that it's a client side application that works with markdown, and their schema for "canvas" is opensource.

I've been very happy with the git plugin for syncing personally, I know many people recommend syncthing. I think there's some obstacles for iphone support specifically although I don't use it on mobile.


Hey all!

I've been trying to find the perfect software to organize my notes, thoughts and tasks.

I wasn't able to find any suitable candidate and wondered if the HN crowd is in the same boat.

Is there any posts of people who went down the same endless search you would recommend?

For reference, here's a post [0] explaining my requirements.


Because of a few things : 1) in a camera, you’ll have a big (>1inch) sensor. 2) in a camera, you’ll have a much bigger lens diameter, thus a bigger aperture diameter (not f number). Both effects will decrease the width of the focus point, wich will increase the bokeh effect.


I second this, i've been using it for a few years and it's very easy to setup. Reliable and cheap.


I see your point and I have not made it clear in my post;

I actually follow these values in all other parts of my life; I cut back on my possessions (lots of sales and gifts), take exclusively public transport, eat vegan and (mostly) local, always favour low-tech, package free buys and responsible companies, etc.

My job is the complete opposite, which I want to fix.


So how does being vegan and taking public transport contradict with being a software developer?

I really think that you're approaching this backwards if you decide "this is the values that I follow" and then try to change every aspect of your life to fit that vision.


My thought process while adapting my life are more akin to this :

I felt disconnected and unhappy -> found those principles/values that seem to make people more happy (who were in the same situation as me) -> tried them, felt much more happy and fulfilled than before -> try to apply it to other areas.


Good idea, that way you can feel like you do a part of good (helping people) while pushing simple software.

Maybe if we can get enough traction, it could be the new trend ;)
