Everyone I recommended it to uses it almost daily.&lt;p&gt;It makes me wonder about the state of FOSS software: there are plenty of genuinely good FOSS apps that can, in theory, be a part of a FOSS &amp;quot;ecosystem.&amp;quot; But not many people actually know about them or use them.&lt;p&gt;While I am still curious to know why this is, it seems like &amp;quot;advertisement&amp;quot; is still the greater predictor of software usage than anything else (including functionality and ease-of-use). Which is sad (especially because &lt;i&gt;FOSS apps get better the more people use them&lt;/i&gt;).</text></comment>

I&amp;#x27;ve had that idea in the back of my head for years and years and am super excited somebody actually built it.  Looking forward to trying this out.&lt;p&gt;If it works well enough to actually use I&amp;#x27;m gonna be turning heads at the next in person meeting. :)</text></comment>
