@tychobrahe.bsky.social “Excuse me but would it be possible to hijack your brand to sell these surplus discount lizard spleens? Mostly fresh.”


@bjhess I bet something like an old ThinkPad T430 would be great at this. I’m half tempted, but I don’t think I know of an app in the *nix ecosystem that would have a great writing experience. I love many things about FOSS, but rarely the UX.

@bjhess This just reminded me of another product that’s been on my “maybe, someday” list for years, but it’s quite a bit more expensive: getfreewrite.com/products/… - I think in practice a distraction-free writing app like iA writer has gotten me most of what I’m looking for here, so I keep not buying.
