Cool! Looks really nice. Why is the smart indentation active in view mode but not edit mode? :/
Artifact of using textarea over content editable. No good way to modify formatting of textarea, so instead I made styles fit textarea. Not exactly ideal, just where I ended up.

#102Are you planning to add encryption at some point? You'd get at least 1 more user if you do! ;)

#103The non-local and not end to end encrypted nature of this are my only turn offs. I suspect that's the case for a lot of folks. You seem like the kind of person that wouldn't go looking at everyone's notes for fun and profit but that's not enough of a guarantee. Are you planning to add encryption at some point?

I still put sensitive banking/health etc in apple notes lol. But I'm glad I at least seem honest! I am removing any admin views of note blocks so I can't even accidentally view anything, but every web person still knows it's possible with db access. Totally understand the need for guarantee. Thanks for checking it out.
Unrelated, just did a search and gmail just added end to end encryption last month!

Looks like a cool app that could be very useful. Interesting work. Suggestion: Record a new demo video with what I am going to call "normal" contrast white background and light elements theme. Your demo is super low contrast and very dark. Hard to watch. Take cues from the way UI colors work on computers as shipped to the average person. Nobody ships their OS with super dark low contrast everywhere. Just suggesting,…
Noted. And not first time hearing that. I’ll add some more contrast customization and a light mode. Demo video was like, how do I explain this to my friends starter video. not ready for hn spotlight.

#105That 4chan meme picture doesn't make it look very trustworthy to be honest. Especially because the site asks for my data right after that. I'm sure I'm not going to give someone who likes 4chan memes my data.
Data in this case being: an email address and a password. Your concern feels overblown given that.

email address, pw, and presumably a whole bunch of unencrypted personal notes.
