    This is not an excuse to let people choose if they allow os downgrades or not. Like bootloader unlock option on android devices. Also people find exploits on newer OS versions as w…

    Why everything has to be on the server? ok, Where are you going to store your client authentication tokens or decryption keys. A proper file system isolation is a key if you want a…

    They don't have to reinvent electron. They shouldn't need to use a whole virtualized operating system to call their web API with a fancy UI. Projects with much smaller budget than …

    TUI may look good on the surface, but I’d really appreciate to see a good descriptive logs instead of a fancy progress bar

    Are you planning on releasing the server as a standalone application? Or it will be source available client + proprietary server? I've checked Noor, which looks to have a nice UX a…

    That’s something LLMs are also presumably good at. At least I’m seeing more and more push to use LLMs at work for ambitious business requirements instead of learning about the prob…
