  • Ah, thanks for the answer, I’d missed this on the GH page. Unfortunately, that’s not what I’m after as I know I will end up with a complete mess of unusable notes or not use it at all if there are any stages of choosing a note type.

    Ideally, I want version controlled, editable, searchable, taggable paper I don’t have to file away, which I can also type on and use other digital tools with (e.g for things like diagrams, spreadsheets). I haven’t seen anything particularly close to what I’m after yet but I’m hopeful that it’ll come eventually.



  • Shopping local reduces the harm Amazon can and is doing.

    It’s a political decision with regards to consolidation of power. Do you want Bezos and his small group to have such significant power over the direction of both your local region and on a global scale? Their interest is just money, whereas people who live in a region typically care about it beyond that.

    All those tax breaks they get? Because they are so big they can bargain at that level. Supporting Amazon takes away from local services as a result.

    The way I look at it, shopping with Amazon is often due to laziness (often cheaper or better from elsewhere) and perhaps you get a discount upfront (again, it’s not hard to shop around and find comparable or better prices) but there are hidden long-term costs.
