I don't find Zed much worse for working with webtech either.

I looked at the brainrotty name[1] and instantly assumed AI slop, but I'm glad the website was upfront about that.

Yeah, it is a really bad connotation. This infantile and obsessive shallow comparisons of everything. I utterly hate to see the term here on HN.

What I love in Open Camera is that I am able to turn off all extra post-processing (noise, yes please) and use my phone camera with full manual settings like it was a DSLR (with a really bad sensor). Only problems are clunky UI and general slowness of taking pictures, but you get used to it.

It's really unbeatable from a photographer / artist perspective, especially because I care a lot about imperfect gritty noisy looks and full control.


If you are photogrpher, you don't care about postprocessing in app. You want RAW file and edit in reliable editing software.

One thing I also care about is the storage space on my phone running out... Also, I haven't found any good RAW editing app on my phone yet, and I am not gonna jump through the hoops of taking the picture to my laptop and editing it there before just sharing some random snapshot of a day with someone.

But yes, I am a photograper and always take raw photos with my DSLR.


You still use DSLR as photographer in 2026?

Unprofessional photograper, the camera is pretty old but serves me well enough.

Gotta have someone over 18 click the button for you then I guess.

For me, bottom blocks stay still while those on the very top fall down.

If I open it, click on the background to activate the physics and just keep the tab open, pretty much all of the blocks that can collapse do eventually collapse.

The Nebraska guy’s block remains surprisingly stable, even when the whole thing above it collapses. Very symbolic.

You also get contactless payment on debit cards.

Unless you own some obscure phone that is not supported by GOS, Calyx or Iode, but is by /e/... Not sure how many of those exist...

Based on the title I thought this was a personal call-out to me and others like me who obsessively bookmark/save links and yet seldom even glance at their collection.


This is (tragically) the reason why I remain a tab hoarder: the UI carries an implicit nudge (a costly signal of visual real estate), for my future self to engage with it.

In a similar spirit to OP: it did help mitigate the hoarding, when I began thinking "how hard is it to find this resource/reference again, should I actually need it?". And if it's trivial to google (and mnemonically sticky enough I can trust my future self to remember it), I can close the tab.


I keep thinking about something like a search engine integration that would suggest relevant bookmarks at the top of your search results. It might have been even cooler back when we had things like delicio.us and if we could have gotten recommended relevant links from people we followed's bookmarks too. But even knowing how to code like I do I sorta can't think of how to do it, maybe a browser extension that injects over google? I guess I've more thought about how it would interact than how to actually make it.


I use Linkding, and there is https://github.com/Fivefold/linkding-injector which does exactly what you described. I don't use it, though. Usually it brings up irrelevant results, and in the rare case that it would have brought up useful ones, the Firefox search bar history-based autocomplete got me there first.

same here. That is why i came to discussion to find out how are people using those.


winget ftw


How can it be more stable if it still uses NewpipeExtractor?


Apparently they forked the extractor some years ago and have been maintaining it independently, without merging anything from the original branch.
