Atuin: https://atuin.sh/ Note: I am a user, and not the author (Ellie Huxtable)

I’m an atuin user too, and think it’s great. It’s a significant improvement over the bash history configurations (incantations?) I used previously.

Where atuin really shines is in keeping a single unified history across multiple shell windows, which my incantations could never get to work correctly on all the platforms I use (zsh/bash on OSX/Linux/msys/cygwin/babun).

I’ve also enjoyed running SQL queries on my atuin-history to learn more about my own workflows to see where I can optimize.

Thanks!

open sourcing is utter waste of time. What do you still working for a big coporates companies in free of cost. This is how 70% of open sourcing literally works. You work for developers who are working in firms and often firms also fork your projects. Before 4 years I've inspected iOS whats app bundle they were used lot of open source projects. I am not about contributing to Linux Systems indeed projects copied by Apple & Windows bussiness.

If you do open source work for like Linux, Server or watever which is already avaiable in high cost, then It could be considerable as great hobby. Open sourcing the innovtive, invensitions aren't good in software industries they are remains fee by commericial firms. All your intentions just go waste. Most of people see this comment negative. The other side, One day come, major jobloss will directly affect you as well even you have settled well. You will understand!

Anyone know what were the big inflection points in 2022 and 2023 for star growth?

2023's one may be HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35839470

Ellie's Show HN was in 2021: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27079862

2022's must be somewhere else.
