  1. Typo is at 0.9.1, up from 0.4.0. The library, editor and appearance were redesigned, with note sorting, swipe to favorite or trash, and animated navigation. The PDF viewer now selects text and opens links, slow compiles show a loading screen, and errors appear in the source view. There is also a quick settings tile for a new note.

    APK: github.com/DontBlameMeDev/typo

  2. find_conflict 0.1.5 is out. Since 0.1.0 it ships statically linked musl binaries, quitting the TUI aborts the run, and conflicts with a missing original or a binary file no longer break the GUI. It finds Syncthing .sync-conflict- files anywhere in a tree, then lets you keep the original, the conflict or both, with a diff to tell them apart.

    cargo install find_conflict

  3. So that's #KeepassXC setup on the desktop, #KeepassDX setup on the phone, and #SyncThing setup on both to keep the database synced between them :)

    A few wee quirks to get used to with both solutions:

    • Having to keep the Keepass application open and running in the system tray on desktop, and make sure it stays running on startup
    • Making sure the service is definitely running ok if anything goes awry
    • Making sure I don't try to write the same entry to both devices if one is offline
    • The slight delay when doing anything with the android app when opening the database. Signing into websites etc once that's open is pretty quick.

    All stuff I can live with. Some of them aren't actually issues per-se, just things I need to bear in mind while getting used to using this setup.

    Being completely offline for the first time with password management feels a wee bit nerve wracking atm, so I'll have to make sure I keep a regular backup of the database and store it somewhere secure.

    What it also highlighted was just how many damned duplicate entries I had stored in #Proton. That's gonna take a bit of clearing up!
