I usually keep it in the “icon” view which is pretty space efficient. When you activate the vertical tabs, it also generates a toggle at the top of the window that lets you expand the tabs. I find it is better on smaller screens than the standard horizontal tabs personally.

Helpful to know! I assume it’s the same or similar?

Check the link. It includes instructions for disabling it.

I did use it for a while, but it lags in updates and is missing a feature or two that I needed.

Overall it’s great and underrated (or under-represented).

Thanks! I added it to the post.

Firefox is currently in the process of rebuilding the official support. I don’t have particularly high hopes that they will get it right, but I’m reserving judgement until I see it.

It’s not broken - It’s an add-on that has to be updated every time that Firefox updates. The devs seem to not like it much since it is basically a workaround, but I’ve been using it for a couple years now with no issues. It can be tedious to update/reinstall every time FF updates, but It’s not so bad.

Really interesting - I never used something like this but certainly see the value

Absolutely phenomenal. Great app, hosting, and development community.

It’s a good reason to start self hosting.

Well, “nothing” may be a slight exaggeration. But I know little enough that wasn’t aware Java and JavaScript are two different things.

Open source requires SOME understanding of computers, but really, you don’t have to understand economic theory to see the benefits of joining a union. I don’t know much, but I value privacy and I am old enough to see how tragically profiteers have broken the web. People smarter than me assure me that Open Source tends to be more secure, more private, harder to abuse and that all seems like a good idea to me. I’ve helped out with lots of Community contribution projects like Wikipedia, Open Street Maps, Open Clip Art, etc. and I see the good that Creative commons does, which is a philosophical cousin of Open Source. So, yeah, I understand Open source insofar as I understand its importance, even though I really don’t know enough to contribute much other than cheerleading :)

I don’t really know anything about computers, and it seems like I’m not the only one who finds the entire app suite a little confusing. The Github says this, which is where I got the understanding that it involves both:

ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors contain the following components:

• desktop-apps - the frontend for ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors which is used to build the program interface for the operating system selected.
• desktop-sdk - SDK which is a core part of ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors.
• core - server core components for ONLYOFFICE Document Server which is a part of ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors and is used to enable the conversion between the most popular office document formats (DOC, DOCX, ODT, RTF, TXT, PDF, HTML, EPUB, XPS, DjVu, XLS, XLSX, ODS, CSV, PPT, PPTX, ODP).
• sdkjs - JavaScript SDK for the ONLYOFFICE Document Server which is a part of ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors and contains API for all the included components client-side interaction.
• web-apps - the frontend for ONLYOFFICE Document Server which is a part of ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors that allows the user to create, edit, save and export text, spreadsheet and presentation documents using the common interface of a document editor.
• dictionaries - the dictionaries of various languages used for spellchecking in ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors.

Hopefully you can explain what that means.

On mine I can just swipe the entire line to the right or left to delete.

Thanks, this is really helpful in understanding the history of the community.

Thank you! This is very helpful. I didn’t see these but Lemmy search is sort of broken for me right now.

Oh great. Sorry that I didn’t dig in too much further than the front page of the website.

Oh, that is a really interesting question. I do think that there are some open source assistants that may offer some flexibility, but that’s not really how I personally use a phone so I wouldn’t have any answer. I found this article from a few years ago that seems to suggest it was and may be possible.

yeah, just looking through the notes, it looks like both devs care a lot about their project and just have different visions for what a “Complete” notes app should look like. It’s nice to see, because sometimes when you see a fork of a project it’s because someone abandoned it or there is some kind of community drama, but that doesn’t seem to be the case afaik.

Wow, this looks amazing. I’ll have to check it out to see how sharing/collaboration works though.

I also found a fork called NotallyX, which includes import functions from Keep and Evernote. Pretty useful for someone migrating.

What benefits do you find in particular that make it better than hosting yourself?
