Did you see a significant productivity increase? Did your motivation to work on long projects change? Did it help you get over roadblocks in long project? (I tend to lose motivation whenever I struggle to make progress for more than 3 hours in a row.) How do you decide what goes inside of the system and what doesn't? (we have search engines and chatgpt that can quickly give us the information we want for most things) How do you keep the information up to date, for example if you read a research paper and later it is partially disproven?

Thank you! Looking forward to learning about your experiences :)

Acreom looks interesting! But 500 mbs of ram usage is worrisome

@PsychrolutesMarcidus They have a really active Discord community, and I'm guessing they might address it if you mention it to them. Here's the link: https://discord.gg/kCGeBVGt Especially since this tool is aimed at other developers.

I dunno. It is a pretty popular complaint about electron apps. They probably know about it, but it will take time to fine tune electron to use less resources.

@PsychrolutesMarcidus If you run it from the browser does it still use as much RAM? I've seen a lot of people post that they hate Electron apps, but I didn't fully understand why. Thank you for explaining. 😊

Yeah, ram usage is probably the most notable thing people seems to hate about electron apps. You are basically running another chromium browser. Which maybe fine for some other task. But for making notes it seems to be an overkill.
