@nixCraft@mastodon.social We should bring back, "Stranger Danger", but for this.

It wouldn't let me post the video in the quote post, so here's a demo of it in action now that they've got it programmed.

She'll also be releasing her first #SAO as well. You can order them online if you want to pre-order and she can arrange for in-person pick-up at the con or if there is anything left over after the con, Orlando peeps can arrange for a pick up. https://brookesbytes.myshopify.com/products/badge-crown-sao?variant=48077230702766

@millie@infosec.exchange @DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @obsidian@mas.to You're preaching to the choir here. I also like to get things done, so when a developer makes something that lives up to what Obsidian is doing, I'd fully support it, but that's currently not the case. 🤷

@millie@infosec.exchange @DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @obsidian@mas.to I'm fully aware of what I'm running, but the fact that it is a web stack is an irrelevant point. The overhead may be orders of magnitude higher, but the development cost of this functionality are significantly lower and my machine isn't a machine from the 1990s. I bought RAM to use the RAM and additional benefit from it using a web stack like this allows for a lot of community participation that otherwise wouldn't be there if this had been done in Qt or GTK. I don't argue that it could not perform better if C was used, but there's obvious trade-offs using C instead of using something like TypeScript with Electron. I haven't seen a better replacement for Obsidian that does what Obsidian does and is cross-platform. If it did, I'd likely jump on it, but I think solely saying, "Oh, it's on Electron, it's garbage." is pretty reductive.

@DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @millie@infosec.exchange @obsidian@mas.to Depends on which vault I'm using. I have different vaults dependent on certain things I do, but my main personal one is in the 10k - 20k range of notes and I heavily link things in every note. Any particular reason?

@DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @millie@infosec.exchange @obsidian@mas.to You're not wrong here. There are a LOT of really badly implemented Electron apps that just eat up all my resources on my machine. I usually jump between Vim and Obsidian depending on what I need to do because the Vim support included inevitably leads to me doing some complex Ex command only to find it doesn't recognize it or some keybind doesn't exist or doesn't behave how it should in Obsidian. I usually end up opening my tmux session and pointing it at my vaults, but it's never as a result of Obsidian eating up my RAM (with the exception of one plugin that doesn't manage its state very well).

@millie@infosec.exchange @DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @obsidian@mas.to Meh, I don't entirely agree with this. I've seen plenty of solid Electron apps that run buttery smooth and consume very little resources. I'm sure there's better options out, but then what's the alternative for what it's doing? I haven't come across anything that really fits my needs elsewhere and I sure shit won't go near something like Notion.

@DoomHammerNG@mastodon.social @obsidian@mas.to even though they use Electron, I haven't experienced any bloat with Obsidian that wasn't self-inflicted from a badly written plug-in or script.
