@danarel I used Joplin for a while, but eventually I found that since my preferred browser (#Vivaldi) integrated a notes feature that used E2EE and was synced between devices, I didn't really have a good reason to. Vivaldi meets all my personal requirements. Is there something you're looking for in a note taking application that would be a deal breaker to not include?
There's been an uptick in chatter about #Calckey of late, leading to several very enjoyable chats with people this morning, so I thought I'd share my current setup to let you see one of the reasons I treat this as my Primary account.
It's the visuals. It's clean, oh so simple, and just...pretty, you know? Highly subjective, this kind of thing, but I do like my Pretties. What you'll also note is I've themed my browser, Vivaldi, to match Calckey! I even https://themes.vivaldi.net/themes/rwjvEjrPJAL for others to enjoy.
This is now a place that I genuinely enjoy visiting to hang out in, and that's even before https://calckey.social/notes/9dtxylzbf9. Mastodon on the web by comparison feels cold, austere and a touch clunky (I suspect that's why there are so many apps) and yes I'm aware of Elk which is better but still not quite as pleasant and graceful as this (though Elk is still in Alpha, tbf).
My screenshot also shows off #Vivaldi 6.0s brand-spanking new Workspaces feature (right-most panel) whereby I can now segregate tabs into discrete groups over and above their already brilliant Tab Stacks feature - I click on the word Social at the top there and there are two more hidden away from view (Gaming, and the default). Yes, I have my Tabs at the right-hand side, like my Linux/KDE taskbars.
It's a lovely day outside so I hope it's the same where you are and that you get some time out in it. Happy Fridays, everyone.

I'mma follow you over at #SDF so I can boost dinner if your stuff. We're all interested over there with retro and historic computing , being perhaps the oldest, extant, public access #UNIX system - #PubNIX
Thank you for caring enough to publicly archive these treasures!
Unfortunately not a lot of respondents, but the ~60/40 split was enough to get me to install vivaldi.
Unfortuantely I won't be sticking with it. Why? My main reason for installing it was the new mail client, which reminded me of the old #Mozilla and #opera browsers. Alas, the mail client doesn't work the way I need it to, and there are lots of forum posts about problems with it...
I know there's another day left for the previous poll, but I am surprised to see a %40 adoption rate for #Vivaldi#web#browser. Of course, a sample of 22 people, and a skew towards the more technically minded side of the Fediverse probably accounts for that.
So, what #web#browser do you use? #Firefox, #Safari, #Chrome, or #Vivaldi? If you are using something else please reply - there's only 4 slots for polls, so I had to limit the choices. Please #boost to get a better response on this poll.
So, I've installed the #vivaldi#browser and got my #mail set up. It's looking interesting, and quite a bit on the overwhelming side. I'm going to have to do some work with the configuration to get it where I want it to be...
Curiosity: Do you use the #vivaldi#browser? Or are you using something else? (Should a I do a multiple choice browser survey?) Please boost so I can get some good data.
