Huh, turns out it does now! Definitely didn’t when I last tried the desktop app.

Last I checked, Bitwarden doesn’t have any way to hit a hotkey and insert login credentials in the current app? It also can’t be unlocked with biometrics?
Those aren’t “nice” features, they’re baseline features that every password manager needs to have. I don’t just type passwords into a browser, so a browser extension alone isn’t enough. And I’m not typing my umpteen character long password fifty times a day, there needs to be biometrics.
I will always choose open source software over closed source software - but not if it means choosing mediocre software over good software.
Thank you! Trying it out now and it’s amazing.
Create a folder, put markdown files in it, sync* and backup* the folder however you like and edit the files with whatever you like*.
Within my folder I have a daily journal - start each day with a list of what I hope to achieve today and make notes throughout the day as I progress on those tasks. The next day that journal becomes something I’lll refer back to in the morning to decide what to do next. Depending on the project - weekly or monthly might be more suitable than daily. Or maybe something else entirely.
I also have folders an files for longer term tasks.
If you want to collaborate, make a second folder and choose a sync platform you can all agree on.
(* I use GitHub for Sync, Backblaze B2 for backup, and Visual Studio Code for editing, with extensions for markdown and making GitHub a little easier… specifically GitDoc for auto-commit/push/pull and Markdown All in One for formatting/etc. Also Copilot is handy for some note taking tasks. The “foam” extension mentioned here looks like it might be great too)
I use various extensions for Visual Studio Code. They add a million features, but these are the ones I find most useful:
I prefer to view the current status of my checkout in the sidebar of my code editor than on the command line.
It’s easier to view a diff of a file and decide whether to stage or rollback changes in a GUI. With most GUIs you can even select individual lines of code and revert or stage them.
I like how Commit and Push and Pull are a single “Commit & Sync” button in Visual Studio code. Similarly there’s a simple “Sync” button in the status bar.
Speaking of the status bar - it also has a counter for commits that need to be pushed or pulled. And it tells you what branch you’re currently on. And whether you have uncommitted changes. Handy.
I find the GUI equivalent of git log --graph
is significantly easier to understand when the graph is drawn with nice vector lines instead of ASCII art.
Finally - I don’t just use raw git, I also use extensions like pull requests, and I create branches for issue numbers. I have an extension that shows pull requests in Visual Studio Code and also shows issues assigned to me, with a one click “Start Working” button to create a branch named after the issue and change the issue status to In Progress. And when I’m finished working on it, there’s a button for that too.
I used to use it because they backport secruity patches for software that the official dev team has abandoned - sometimes extending how long you can use that software by several years which is really nice peace of mind. It means I can upgrade on my own schedule, instead of on someone else’s schedule.
I don’t use RHEL anymore.
