Electron apps tend to fall down in the minutiae of the little things that native apps get right (around things like selection, scrolling, various small affordances across various levels). Would love to see something like this be more native app upfront, than starting out with something that will always leave that top 10% of what makes a nice feeling app unobtainable. You win hard on this if you have the best possible…
This is a very mac-centric view. It makes business sense to plan for multiplatform.

#182The signature figure on the repo shows file contents alongside a chat window. Is this actually supported by the app? I can't figure out how to open a chat window in the app without handing off to an external AI app.
I was really dissapointed whem realized that they sell on the webpage what they don't have in the app Deleted immediately

I am using the terminal to run my TUI within OpenKnowledge. Hopefully they add a better in-app chat experience soon.

#186I've been using my opencode go subscription for Obsidian, saving my Claude sub for actual coding. Any reason why it's limited to Codex, Claude, and Cursor?
Let us know if any feedback.

100% second for OpenCode. for a lot of people it's becoming a very important second choice. I use it for cheaper models when my $20 claude code runs out for the day and I get a lot out of it.
