What’s the tech stack like?
It does not do images.
Timestamped notes/lines are great, I've had these in my .vimrc for years "insert date iabbrev dts strftime("\* %D - %A\n\t") "insert datetime iabbrev dtt strftime("%D %H:%M:%S:")
This is lovely. I maintain a dev log at work where I manually time-stamp entries section wise, but many times I’m doing it after the fact. Ability to edit the time stamps and then search based on it would make this super powered. Actually, I would love to combine this with Heynote[0], have you considered it? [0]: https://heynote.com/
Why not just use Notepad in Windows and hit F5 Time/Date at need? 9:54 AM 3/21/2025 That said, this sort of thing has me wishing for something like to Services support in Windows where that could be implemented as a Service by Notepad and then used in any context where text input is acceptable.
There is no F5 key on iphones :) I couldn't find any simple apple-notes-like app, that is available on all platforms, and allows logging in this style. my private version of this app has cross-device sync, it's just not fully baked yet since I need to implement some form of signup (google/apple), and there's also the privacy issue people are concerned about which I'm not sure how to address.
If you could make a way to share a note attached to a specific name, it would work very nicely for one usage which needs timestamping I've been working on (which is why I had the F5 thing at the ready), tracking how long it takes to cut a given file on a CNC, then sharing that result.
I like the idea, but not the web-based implementation. Local first, and ideally an open source app that can work offline when I'm going distraction free. It feels like a vim plugin. It definitely feels like org-mode can do this. A few years back I had a little command line tool where I could log things quickly - it was like syslog for humans - but with #hashtags for projects or clients, and then a small tool that wou…
I do this with Zim (desktop wiki).

In 2023, I wrote another script that appends a line to a csv file every 5 minutes. The line includes the focused window class, command line, title, name of the git branch that’s currently checked out, system idle time, and WiFi access point name. So I know pretty much how long I was working on everything vs other stuff like slack.
I’m finally starting to write tools to visualize and analyze this data. Is it going to change how I work? Not really, but for some reason I like seeing at a glance how I spent my time.

For the uneducated, how do you use those? Is there a way to insert those automatically, just like the submission does?

Kinda useful if you want to manually add date/time to lines, but a different thing.
