Wow, we just attended the #patio general assembly. 23 organisers from tech worker co-operative worldwide. Very energising.

I've been looking for a clean, #NoAI Markdown editor to replace Logseq. Logseq is great but has a lot of bloat that I don't need for simple writing (like my scripts). I tried MarkText and I enjoy it, but I just learned that it hasn't been updated in over a year with little to no activity on their github, which is a concern for security and longevity.

What are you all using for distraction free writing, especially for markdown?

🚨 The Snowflake network is currently overloaded and we need more Snowflake proxies.

If you have spare bandwidth or available servers, please consider running Snowflake proxies.

We urgently need more Snowflake proxies to help handle this surge and ensure that users can continue to access the open Internet.

Please share this call with your friends, communities, hackerspaces and anyone who may be able to help!

According to Valve, they managed to run pretty much all x86 games (so far) on their new ARM-based PCs thanks to this FOSS project:

https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX

This runs together with Proton to seamlessly transcode Windows x86 games for Steam OS on ARM. FOSS is THAT cool!
