EDIT: Conversation here.

This is a relatively old story now, but I thought I would post about it, as I haven't seen anyone else do the same on this community.

For those that don't know, DuckDuckGo's CEO & founder Gabriel Weinberg posted the following on his Twitter:

Would love to know the community’s thoughts. Personally, I don't think this is a big deal - all search engines have to favour certain results over others... it's the intrinsic state of a search engine - although I know some people are rather upset.

 

I often see people talking about the fact that they like a certain open-source application, but 'it's a shame it's on Electron'; what does this mean? Is it a privacy thing or a resource thing?

Forest is an Android and iOS app (and web addon) that lets you track the amount of time you have spent studying.

I just it to track how much time I've spent studying from month-to-month and from subject-to-subject (through using tags). I don't know that there is an open-source alternative but if there is, that would be amazing. I am about to be finished with college for the summer and so will have time to potentially develop an app if there isn't already one.

Requirements:

  • timer option
  • countdown option
  • tags (for specific subjects or activities)
  • statistics page with weekly, monthly, and annual views

Nice Features to Have:

  • study together option
  • number of people currently studying

Fantastic list! I would love to find an open-source, decentralised alternative to iMDB/Letterboxd for tracking movies. If anyone knows of one, let me know!

 

Medito is a completely free and open-source meditation app for both android and iOS. I am not associated with it in anyway but have been using it for the past few months and absolutely love it! There are so many guided recordings, there's a timer feature, there are background white noise options, etc.
