tankie confirmed

Didn’t like mixing issue tracking with vcs. I also didn’t like any VCS hahaha, I was just writing shit in literally notepad

Learned fossil in college and I intensely disliked it

No, very true

There’s also readwise reader which is better in most ways. Not open source - but also not pretending to be either

I mean it’s just kinda gimmicky so with this added issue I just can’t support it.

I’ve had too many issues with Ventoy that I’d rather just use fedora media writer or balenaetcher for when that doesn’t work. I mean honestly it’s a bit gimmicky, even if it’s a cool concept. I believe Glim and some other options exist too

I always thought this and all the other sites like it were just SEO bait. The quality of the alternatives is no better than random, though I guess you can discover software you didn’t know existed. One example: I’m always looking for an alternative to Roon. Like Plex for music, plus you can add in tidal or qobuz, so you can essentially listen to anything on your own library, or the streaming services, from anywhere. It also has an incredible metadata system, letting you view for example, all the players on a jazz album, view bios of every one, and easily start to check out some new music that way. It’s unbelievably flawed and poorly run though.

What is alternativeto.net’s suggestion as a replacement? Fucking VLC Media player. The only real contender is PlexAmp, or if you want something similar but only for classical music (and without self hosting your own library), there’s idagio. results like that make me think it’s totally useless

a vr browser/3d browser would be incredible but this ain’t it lmao

I’ve literally never seen a project remotely interesting that has their documentation on discord

Paul is a chad. He also got kicked out of ycombinator for outing the founders skipping vaccine lines and encouraging others to do the same.
