  • I used TiddlyWiki (self hosted) extensively for like three years but now as I changed jobs I want to get start using just a bunch of markdown files. Editing with VS code on desktop and Markor on mobile.

    Unfortunately no syncing yet because I keep my work documents in my work account’s onedrive and can’t sync it with my phone. I think there are apps that do it but I’d have to go through IT to get permission etc so haven’t done that yet

    Now all I need to find is a good method for searching throughmy markdown files. The search on vs code is alright but I’d like some thing that I can quickly pull up with global shortcut like ctrl alt s or something. Maybe I’ll just make a python program to do it for me or try to find something ready-made.









  • Is it literally about sitting or more that you can’t be still? My dad has tried a bunch of walking treadmills etc while coding and nothing really worked well (hard to walk while you code, messed with his wrists) until he got this chair that basically just had pedals on it. Easier to cycle than to walk and his issues went away.

    Also they’re very small!





  • Honestly, just go with Ubuntu. If there are any problems you can very easily find answers. Second option would be the get something Ubuntu based, like Mint and Pop OS. Being based in it basically means they take Ubuntu and modify a bit to their liking but at the core they’re Ubuntu, meaning that almost everything you find for Ubuntu will work for them.

    You can always switch later to something else if you feel like it.
